The Menu System 39 ã Setup and Connections What ’s a Menu? The on-screen menu is a list of choices, just like a menu in a restaurant. And, just as a restaurant menu is divided into sections such as appetizers, entrees, and desserts, the on- screen menus are also separated into sections to help you find the information you need. Don’t Forget Point and Select As with all of the on-screen displays, you use Point and Select to navigate. 1 ãã Troubleshooting 5 Using the Remote ã 2 The Menu System The Menu System 4 Program Guides 3 The Menu System 40 Using the Menu System To bring up the Main menu, press MENU on the remote. Use point and select to choose an item from the Main menu. To use the menu system, you need to know the Point and Select rule. Use the arrows on the remote to point to an item on the screen, and then press OK to select it. Back and Help There are Back and Help buttons at the top of most screens. Point to Back and press OK to leave that screen. Point to Help to see more information about that screen. Exiting a Screen There are three ways to exit a menu: •Point to Back and press OK. •Press the CLEAR button on the remote control. The on-screen displays clear from the screen and you return to TV viewing. •Press the GO BACK button on the remote. You return to the previous on-screen display or normal programming. Using Help All menus have a Help button. For example, selecting the Help button from the Main menu shows you information about using the Main menu screen. The rest of the Help buttons in the menu system bring up helpful information explaining one aspect of that menu. Use the MENU button to bring up the Main menu, and then use Point and Select to choose a menu option. Context-Sensitive Help Most of the screens contain information to help you decide what to do next. If you get stuck, look for the help text. If the Main menu doesn’t appear when you press MENU, the remote might not be in DSS ® mode. Try pressing the DSS button on the remote, and then OK. The Menu System 41 Menu Descriptions This section briefly describes each of the available Main menu options. More information about each menu and its features is included later in this chapter. Program Guide Shows the on-screen programming schedules. Mailbox Use to read mail messages from your program providers. Purchases Use to review or cancel upcoming purchases, and to review past purchases. Timers Allows you to schedule the digital satellite system to tune to a specific channel at a specific time. Profiles Allows you to set ratings limits, spending limits, and viewing hours, as well as create favorite channel lists. Options Allows you to find out more about the receiver and remote, change how your system looks, run the system test and install a new access card. Dish Pointing Use to find your dish pointing coordinates, and to access the on-screen signal strength meter. Home Control With the proper equipment, this feature lets you control certain devices and appliances in your house. Don’t Be Afraid to Explore Once you’ve learned the basics, feel free to poke around the menu system because exploring is the best way to learn. The context-sensitive help at the bottom of the screen provides instructions for getting through any particular menu or control panel. Remember, press CLEAR at any time to leave the menu system and return to regular system viewing. Don’t Forget About the CLEAR Button Press the CLEAR button on the remote to remove the on-screen menus and return to normal viewing. The Menu System 42 The Program Guide Selecting Program Guide brings up your default program guide: the Detail Guide, the Grid Guide or SurfGuide. Anatomy of a Program Guide The following diagram shows you the kind of information you will see in the Detail Guide and Grid Guide. Bringing Up the Program Guides Besides selecting Program Guide in the Main menu, you can press the GUIDE button on the remote. Displays more sorting options “Family” is one of five selectable Profiles Program titles and information Returns you to previous screen Help gives you more information Sort the guide by: Topics, Movies, or Sports Sorts the current guide alphabetically by title Searches guide for specific information Takes you to the Main menu Scrolls through the guide Shows all available programs Indicates current time Want More Information? Read the section in this book called Program Guides for all the details. The Menu System 43 The Mailbox The mailbox shows you messages that are sent—or “mailed”—from your program providers. For example, you may receive a message calling your attention to a new service. How to Tell When you Have Mail There are two ways to tell if you have mail, depending on whether the receiver is turned on or off. •If the receiver is turned on, the mail icon in the channel banner is highlighted. •If the receiver is turned off, the power light on the front panel of the receiver flashes. Checking Your Mail Select Mailbox on the Main menu or channel banner to view your mail. 1.Point to a message and press OK. The message is opened for you to read. Mail provides the latest information from program providers. 2.Press OK again to close the letter. After you read a message and want to erase it, point to Erase Message and press OK. When you exit the display screen, messages not erased are saved in memory. The Menu System 44 Pay-Per-View Programs Pay-per-view programs (PPV) are programs that you purchase—like a movie ticket—on an event-by-event basis. For instance, there might be a specific channel that runs nothing but previews for movies. After previewing the movie, you can purchase it or find out more details about it. PPV programs can also be found in the program guide. Purchasing and Previewing There are several ways to purchase and preview PPV movies and events: •Tune to a PPV program’s channel. Program providers may offer on- screen purchase instructions, usually as the PPV program begins. •Choose a PPV program from the program guide. •Preview a…

Purpose of Test: The tests were performed to demonstrate Initial compliance. 3.2 Methods & Procedures: 3.2.1 '' 15.231 (a) The provision of this section are restricted to periodic operation within the band 40.66-40.70 MHz and above 70 MHz. Except as chow in paragraph (e) of this section, the intentional radiator is restricted to the transmission of a control signal such as those used with alarm systems, door openers, remote switches, etc. Radio control of toys in not permitted. Continuous transmissions, such as voice or video, and data transmissions are not permitted. The prohibition against data transmissions does not preclude the use of recognition codes. Those codes are used to identify the sensor that is activated or to identify the particular component as being part of the system. The following conditions shall be met to comply with the provisions for this periodic operation: (1) A manually operated transmitter shall employ a switch that will automatically deactivate the transmitter within not more than 5 seconds of being released. (2) A transmitter activated automatically shall cease transmission within 5 seconds after activation. (3) Periodic transmissions at regular predetermined intervals are not permitted. However, polling or supervision transmission to determine system integrity of transmitters used in security or safety applications are allowed if the periodic rate of transmission does not exceed one transmission of not more than one second duration per hour for each transmitter. (4) Intentional radiators which are employed for radio control COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORYTEST REPORT: 73-6665 FCC ID: G95REM002 Exhibit 6 Page 13 of 36 purposes during emergencies involving fire, security, and safety of life, when activated to signal an alarm, may operated during the pendency of the alarm condition.
