Using Text Fields

Using Text Fields

There are several screens that require you to enter information into areas known
as fields. Your receiver has two basic ways to enter the information:

Virtual Keyboard

Remote Control NUMBER PAD

Using the Virtual Keyboard

Use the virtual keyboard letters to type the information. Use the LEFT, RIGHT,

UP, and DOWN ARROWS to navigate around the keyboard. Select the

characters you want.

Using the Number Pad

Use the letters above the NUMBER PAD on the remote control

while the highlight is in the field.
For example, when looking for the channel and times to watch

Rudy Fremmel Presents, you press 7 three times for an R, 8 two

times for a U, 3 one time for a D, and 9 three times for a Y to

spell the word “Rudy.”

While in the Field

When the cursor is in the field:

Press the LEFT ARROW to delete characters.

Press STAR to backspace without deleting any characters.

Press the 0 number button to enter a blank space, such as a space

between words.

Use the RIGHT ARROW to move the cursor forward a space

without deleting any characters.
