HDTV Settings in Guided Setup
Several screens in the Guided Setup process are related to HDTV:
TV Ratio Screen: This screen lets you select your TV’s aspect ratio: 4:3 or 16:9.
TV Resolutions Screen: As you select each resolution, an onscreen message asks if you can still see
the screen properly. If you can, press the INFO key. If not, the unsupported resolution is turned off
after a few seconds. If you turn on Native mode, the receiver will automatically adjust resolution to
match the resolution of individual TV programs as they are tuned.
Primary Local Network: If you’ve chosen to set up both your Satellite Dish and Off-Air Antenna,
you will see this screen near the end of Guided Setup. The receiver will use the ZIP code you enter
on this screen to determine what locally broadcast digital stations are available to you. Setting up a
Secondary Local Network is optional; it can be useful if you are located between two network areas
and intend to receive programming from both via your off-air antenna.
