Troubleshooting
If the power supply to the set top
box is unplugged, then reconnected,
the set top box will need to reset its
programming. While doing so, the
progress screen to the left will be
displayed. This is normal. After the
box setup is complete its normal
operation will resume.
When the GUIDE button is pressed
and the initial screen appears, there
is a tab labeled ALL in the upper
left corner. Pressing GUIDE again
changes the tab to SUBSCRIBED (the
channels available in your package);
then to HD (the HD channels avai-
labe for viewing); then to PPV (the
pay per view channels available);
then to FAVORITES (set from the FA-
VORITES menu); and finally back to
ALL. Make sure the tab is set to ALL
before EXITing the GUIDE; other-
wise, the next time GUIDE is pressed
it may be on one of the other tabs.
Be certain the fiber optic battery
power supply is plugged in. If un-
plugged, the telephone will work
off the battery for eight hours, but
television and internet will not.
Make sure that the green power light
on the set top box is on. See page
2 for the location on the different
models.
