Dialing Format. Choose how you want the Recorder to dial the dial-in number. (For
example: should the dial-in number be preceded by your area code and should a “1”
precede the area code?) In some areas, local numbers must be dialed using the area code.
Satellite Provider. If you subscribe to additional local channels for your city or a nearby
city from your satellite provider, choose the appropriate option followed by the city name
from which you get your local channels (for example, DIRECTV-Sacramento, CA).
Cable Provider. Cable companies may have entries with very similar names, and it may be
difficult to know which is yours. Check your channel lineup card (received during cable
installation) or your cable bill. If you aren’t sure, make your best guess. Later in Guided
Setup, you can check your guess on the Channels You Receive screen (see page 26). If
you still don’t see your provider, go back and verify that you entered the correct ZIP code.
Cable Lineups. A lineup is the type of subscription you purchased from your cable
company. Lineups usually have names like “Basic” or “Extended Basic.” Your cable bill
may have this information. If you still aren’t sure, make your best guess. Later in Guided
Setup, you can check your guess on the Channels You Receive screen (see page 26).
You may also see names like “Rebuild Basic” or “Rebuild Extended Basic.” “Rebuild” is
a term used to refer to a revised lineup. Usually you would be informed by your cable
company if your lineup has been revised. If your best guess at a lineup choice was not
correct, and a rebuild lineup with a similar name is available, try that one instead.
If you have a cable A/B system, you must pick either A or B to watch with your Recorder.
