Using the Remote Controls
Pound Button
Press the POUND button to display the Search screen. Also, you use this
button in several procedures in this User’s Guide.
Recover Button
Press the RECOVER button if you accidentally change the channel or
video input on your TV and cannot get the picture back from your satellite
receiver. When you press the RECOVER button as described below, the
remote control sends commands to your TV to change channels or video
inputs to try to get you back to watching satellite programming. This
procedure works only if you have accidentally changed the TV channel or
video input. It does not recover lost satellite signal (See Chapter 5 -
Reference for troubleshooting information).
The following setup is required to use the RECOVER button:
• The remote control must be set up to control the TV and, if installed, the
VCR (see page 72).
• If a VCR is installed, make sure it is connected as shown on page 31.
• On a remote TV, the RECOVER button must be programmed to tune
your remote TV to the specific channel to receive TV2 programming
(for example, channel 60), using the instructions on page 25.
To use the RECOVER button, complete the following instructions:
1. Press and hold the RECOVER button until all four mode buttons light,
and then let go of the button. The SAT mode button flashes twice and
then all four mode buttons flash three times.
2. Press the RECOVER button. Wait for the TV or VCR mode button to
flash once and then all four mode buttons to flash once.
3. If you see the
System Info screen, press the SELECT button to close
the screen. You have recovered your satellite video.
4. If you do not see the
System Info screen, repeat steps 2 and 3 until you
have recovered your satellite video.
Note: Press any remote control button other than the RECOVER
button to end this procedure.
Note: If the RECOVER button is not programmed to a specific
channel, the RECOVER button will first try to tune your TV to channel
3, then channel 4, and then other video inputs with each press of the
RECOVER button. You may need to press the RECOVER button up
to 30 times to recover your satellite TV video. If the RECOVER button
is programmed to a specific channel (see page 25), the RECOVER
button will tune the TV to the specific channel (for example, channel
60).
