Software Downloads
Your Satellite Receiver is able to receive upgrades or modifications to some
of its features and functions. These modifications will occur automatically,
usually at times when the receiver would likely be turned off.
A continuous, land-based phone line connection is required in order for
your receiver to receive downloads. If your receiver is on when an upgrade
or modification is sent, you may experience a disruption in reception for a
short period of time. Your reception should return to normal after the
modification is complete. Your receiver must be plugged in to receive any
upgrades. Do not unplug your receiver while an upgrade is in progress.
