Advanced Program Guide™
Page 6-3
The term “Large Cell” means that there are two lines of text associated with each program title.
While this provides more space for the program titles and Channel Tags, it also reduces the
number of channels for which information can be seen on the screen at one time.
The largest area of the PROGRAM GUIDE (Large Cell) is made up of cells known as the
program grid. Some cells have arrows indicating that the program started at an earlier time, or
continues until a later time, than the time displayed on the grid. The length of each grid cell
approximates the duration of the associated program.
A time line spanning the width of the guide indicates the show times of the programs being
displayed. The list of blocks running down the left-hand side are the “channel tags.” Depending
on the Guide Sort (Name or Number) option specified in the Guide pop-up menu, the tags may
display the channel numbers or call signs. This will dictate whether the channels are listed by
channel number or alphabetically by call sign.
To navigate the guide, use the , , , and keys on the remote control. You can continue to
press the or keys on the remote control to scroll more program information on the screen.
Pressing the key on the remote control while highlighting any title will display the
INFORMATION screen.
Use the and keys on the remote control to scroll through the guide entries one page at a
time.
When the highlight is in the grid, use the or keys on the remote control to move the highlight
left or right. If you move the highlight on to the Channel Tags in the leftmost column, they will
reverse themselves: they will turn from Channel Numbers to Call Signs or from Call Signs to
Channel Numbers.
Move the highlight to the right, using the keys on the remote control, to move the grid area to
reveal later time periods. Sometimes after scrolling a few hours ahead, there may be a brief delay
while more information is received from the satellite.
