Network DVR functionality.”

Receiver detects an external 
hard drive at the USB 2.0 port.

The device must be reformatted to provide 
DVR Conversion. Any information on the hard 
drive is lost in the reformatting process.

If you are connecting an external hard drive 
previously used on a ViP211, ViP211k, or 
DISH 411 receiver to a DISH Network HD-
DVR receiver (such as a ViP612, ViP622, 
ViP722k DVR, or ViP722), you are using your 
external hard drive for a different product 
feature called DVR External Hard Disk Drive 
Storage. DVR Conversion requires 
reformatting the external hard drive which 
deletes all recordings. A separate activation 
fee applies.

detected a USB hard drive and 
has to be restarted to use the

You set up a DishPASS timer 
and you notice that you have 
no space left on your My 
Recordings.

The DishPASS timer may have 
included more matching 
programs than what you 
expected.

Delete that DishPASS timer and begin again. See 
page 16.
