DVR Issues
• Verify the coax cable to the over-the-air antenna is
connected to both the RF IN port on the back of the
receiver (hand-tighten only) and to the over-the-air
antenna.
• Verify your antenna has not been moved out of
proper alignment. This can cause signal loss on
some or all channels.
• Reset the receiver by pressing and holding the
POWER button located on the front panel. Verify that
the LED is red or bright blue.
• If reset doesn’t work (LED is dim blue), then power
off the receiver (press the POWER button), unplug
it from the outlet for 15 seconds, and plug it back in.
Power the receiver back on.
• The Channel Master DVR+ is only able to tune to
digital channels and will not tune to a channel that is
still broadcasting in analog.
• Visit antennaweb.org to find out which channels in
your area are broadcasting to digital or analog.
• Replace batteries with (2) CR2032 batteries. Be sure
the batteries are installed as indicated on the diagram
inside the battery compartment.
• Verify event timers are set as DVR timers, not as
Auto-Tune timers.
• If you would like to keep more recordings than there
is space on the hard drive, consider purchasing a
USB external hard drive and connecting it to the USB
port for additional storage.
