Note:

The message “Searching for Satellite Signal”
might appear briefly at the bottom of your
screen when you turn on your DIRECTV
Receiver for the first time. This is normal.

If this message stays on the screen for more
than one minute, check your receiver’s
on-screen signal meter to make sure your
antenna is receiving the strongest possible
satellite signal. See “Test Signal Strength” on
page 26 for more information.

Plug in and Turn on the Receiver

To turn on the DIRECTV

Receiver, press the PWR button on the remote control

or the POWER button on the front panel. Turn on your TV.

Using Highlight and Select

All on-screen menus can be handled the same way, using highlight and select
navigation.
Highlight and select navigation has two steps:
1. Use the arrow buttons (up, down, left, and right) on the remote control to

highlight different choices on the screen.

2. Press SELECT to select the highlighted item.
Once you know how to navigate on-screen menus, you can complete the Guided
Setup (see the next step) and explore the menu system.

To display the on-screen menu system, press the remote control’s MENU button.

Note: Don’t worry about getting stuck inside a menu. Pressing the EXIT
button on the remote control takes you out of the menu system and back
to the program you were watching.

Complete the Guided Setup

If you installed your satellite dish antenna yourself, you may have already used
the Guided Setup to find dish-pointing coordinates, acquire and fine-tune the
signal, run the phone setup, program the remote control, and run a system test.
If you need to run the setup again, you can do so from the Satellite Setup menu.
You can also check the signal strength or check dish-pointing coordinates from
this menu.
To check the signal strength, repeat the satellite dish setup, or get
dish-pointing coordinates:
1.    Press MENU to access the Quick Menu.
2.    Press SELECT with Settings highlighted in the Quick Menu.
3.    Press SELECT with Setup highlighted in the Settings menu.
4.    Use the arrow buttons to highlight Satellite in the Setup menu, and press

SELECT to select it.

5. To run the signal strength meter, highlight Test Signal Strength and press

SELECT.

To repeat the satellite dish setup, highlight Repeat Satellite Dish Setup and

press SELECT.

To check your dish-pointing coordinates, highlight Enter Lat. & Long. and

press SELECT.
