Issue
Cannot change channels or

the cable set-top box or

satellite set-top box

changes to the wrong

channel.

Solution
The IR control cable may not be properly positioned or the IR settings

for the remote may be incorrect.
Make sure:

The cable set-top box or satellite set-top box is turned on. The

set-top box must be left on at all times. If not, the Recorder cannot

change channels and cannot record TV shows you schedule.

The IR control cable is properly positioned in front of the IR receiver

on the digital cable or satellite set-top box. If you are not sure, check

the documentation for you digital cable or satellite service.

For more information, see The IR control cable and the Serial Data

Control Cable.

The IR control cable is connected to the IR port on the back of the

Recorder.

The IR settings for the cable set-top box or satellite set-top box are

correct. These settings include the remote control code for the cable

set-top box or the satellite set-top box and the speed of the remote

control signal. If the remote control code is incorrect, incorrect codes

may be sent to change the channels. If the speed for sending codes

to the set-top box is incorrect, the set-top box may try to change

channels incorrectly. Or, the Recorder may need to send an ENTER or

OK code to set-top box after you enter a channel change. To change

these settings, run Setup again. On the Start menu, select Settings >

Guide Settings > Setup TV Signal and Guide. For additional

information about the cable set-top box or satellite set-top box,

contact the manufacturer or the TV service provider.

Some cable set-top boxes and satellite set-top boxes require you

to press the OK or ENTER button on the remote control when

you enter a channel you want to change to. Make sure you have

correctly selected this option when you setup the Recorder. For more

information, see section 5. Wiring Setup and TV Service Provider

in Setup the Recorder.
