The Format button is intended to allow you to select a video output format that is 
compatible with a connected display device. Some televisions may not support all 
four video formats listed above. The Format button provides an easy method for 
selecting an output format that is compatible with your television. 
Operation 
The Format button is intended to complement the User Settings Menu (see 
). It is not intended to replace the User Settings Menu. The User Settings 
Menu is the preferred method of optimizing the DCH receiver to operate with your 
specific television. 
If you cannot get a video display when the DCH receiver is connected to your 
television via Component Video or HDMI cables, use the Format button to select a 
video output format that results in a viewable picture on the display screen. Once a 
viewable picture is available, please use the User Settings Menu to optimize the 
DCH3416 display settings for your specific television. 
Video Format Indicators (Front Panel Display) 
The front panel display of the DCH3416 is equipped with four indicators to the right 
hand side of the display that are used to indicate the currently-selected video output 
format on the Component Video (YPbPr) and HDMI outputs. As the Format button is 
depressed, the front panel format indicators will change to illuminate the currently 
selected video output format in use by the DCH receiver. 
Note: There are some scenarios where the DCH receiver does not change the video 
output format if the Format button is depressed. In these scenarios, the DCH3416 
will flash the currently illuminated video format indicator on the front panel display. If 
this should occur, please use the User Settings Menu to make further changes to 
the video output settings of the DCH3416 receiver. 
Note: Availability of certain features is dependent upon application support. 
CableCARD™ 
The DCH3416 receivers are separable security products that use a removable 
security mechanism known as a CableCARD™. The CableCARD allows the DCH 
receiver to decrypt digital video services available on the cable plant from your digital 
cable provider. Without the CableCARD properly inserted into the rear panel 
CableCARD slot on the DCH receiver, you will not be able to view cable television 
programs, previously recorded programs on the DVR, or interactive on-demand 
programs. 
Important: Under no circumstance should the CableCARD be removed from 
the DCH3416 receiver.
