Icons: Channel Banner
The Channel Banner contains several icons that are displayed only when the feature
is available and is supported by the Digital Satellite Receiver. The following figure and
table depicts the location and appearance of these icons.
Viewing Modes
This section describes the user interface that is directly controlled by remote or front
panel. The following operational modes are supported by this interface:
• Tuning Mode
• Recall Display Mode
• Exiting Tuning Mode
Normal Viewing Mode
Normal Viewing Mode is defined as only the video being displayed and possibly
closed captioning data. When Digital Satellite Receiver is first powered on, it will be in
the Normal Viewing mode.
Note: The first time the
Digital Satellite Receiver
is powered On, all channels except those
exceeding the MPAA or TV rating limits and channels not authorized by DIRECTV are
shown.
Once the user has created a favorite channel list, the Digital Satellite Receiver will
channel surf only to channels that are part of the favorite channel list. The user may
tune to a channel that is not a member of the favorite channel list by entering in a
channel number, explained in the Direct Tuning Method section. The user must add
this channel using the menu system.
