To change the transponder, use the UP arrow to highlight the transponder number. Press
the RIGHT or LEFT arrow to change the transponder number. It is best if each
transponder has a signal strength above 60. If your signal strength is low, see “Satellite
Signal Troubleshooting,” on page 26.

Test Off-Air Signal Strength.

If you have an off-air antenna connected to your HD DVR,

and you chose “Satellite and off-air antenna” or “Off-Air antenna only”as your Program
Source during Guided Setup, you can use this screen to check your off-air signal strength.

When you first come to this screen, it shows signal strength for the frequency that carries
the current off-air antenna channel. If you are having trouble with a specific channel, tune
to that channel, then come to this screen to check the signal for that frequency.

To change the frequency, use the UP arrow to highlight the frequency number. Press the
RIGHT or LEFT arrow to change the frequency number. It is best if each available
frequency has a signal strength above 60. If your signal strength is low and you are having
trouble with off-air antenna channels, see “Questions About Satellite or Antenna Signal”
on page 122.

Time Zone/Daylight Savings.

DIRECTV sets the time on your HD DVR to be accurate at

your billing address. If you temporarily move the HD DVR to a new location, you can
change the time zone here. After changing the time zone, you can change the Daylight
Savings setting.

Reset Satellite Information.

Only use this feature if directed to do so by a professional

installer or a DIRECTV customer care representative. In most cases, you can use Repeat
Guided Setup, rather than this option.

Replace Access Card.

If you need to replace your DIRECTV Access Card, follow the on-

screen instructions.
