Recorder & Phone Setup
Time Zone/Daylight Savings
DIRECTV sets the time on your DVR to be accurate at your billing address. If you
temporarily move the DVR to a new location, you can change the time zone here. After
changing the time zone, you can change the Daylight Savings setting.
Replace Access Card
If you need to replace your DIRECTV access card, follow the on-screen instructions.
System Test
System Test runs tests on the DVR’s signal, tuning, access card and phone connection,
then shows whether or not the test succeeded. You can also see the ID Number for your
DIRECTV access card on this screen. The tests begin as soon as the screen appears.
If the tests succeed, press SELECT to return to Recorder & Phone Setup. If the tests fail,
press SELECT to retry them or LEFT arrow to return to Recorder & Phone Setup.
• If the Signal or Tuning test failed, you need to troubleshoot the signal from your
satellite dish antenna. For hints, see “Satellite Signal Troubleshooting” on page 28.
• If the Access Card test failed, check your Access Card. The proper side of the Access
Card should be inserted firmly into the slot on the front of the DVR. If you have
inserted the correct card firmly, and the Access Card test is still failing, see the
Customer Care information on the back of this manual.
• If the phone connection test fails, see page 132 in the Troubleshooting chapter.
