*Trademark
The device you use to change channels (typically your TV, cable box, or satellite
box) is referred to as your
DirecTune* device. DirecTune lets you jump directly to a
TV channel from within the TV Listings. Your remote needs to know what device is
responsible for changing channels, such as your TV, cable box, satellite box or
VCR. It also needs to know the procedure for changing channels (for instance,
whether or not you have to press an “enter” button after selecting a channel).
Please identify the
DirecTune device in Setup DirecTune when the screen prompts
you. Only one device can be set up as the
DirecTune device. Therefore, you
should set up all your devices prior to setting up a
DirecTune device. You may
change the
DirecTune device settings at anytime.
