Welcome!

Now that you have finished connecting your DIRECTV

®

HD DVR, you are ready to begin

Guided Setup. When you first plug in the HD DVR, you will see gray screens which
display its progress as it starts up. After a few minutes, you will see the Welcome screen,
which marks the start of Guided Setup. If you do not see the Welcome screen, refer to the
troubleshooting tips on page 119.

Remember, while a cable is connected to the HDMI Output jack, the standard video
output jacks (S-Video and Composite A/V) will only display video at “480i,” and the
Component Video output is disabled. (You can’t view video from both the HDMI Output
and the Component Video Output at the same time.) If you used the HDMI or HDMI-to-
DVI cable to connect your HD DVR to your TV, make sure your TV is set to display
video from the input jack you used.

During Guided Setup, follow the on-screen instructions to point your satellite dish antenna
(if you haven’t already), activate your DIRECTV
