DIRECTV HD DVR RECEIVER USER GUIDE
RUN THE SYSTEM TEST
The System Test runs a basic diagnostics check on your DVR.
First make sure that:
1. All connections — jacks, cables, etc. — are in place correctly. See Appendix 2, “Connections for TV and Equipment” for
more information.
2. Remote control has working batteries.
3. The access card is inserted in the DIRECTV
®
Receiver.
Then follow these steps:
1. Turn on your TV and the DVR (if you have the Universal Remote, slide the MODE switch to DIRECTV position).
2. Press MENU, then select Settings & Help.
3. Select Settings then Info & Test.
4. Select Run System Test.
5. If your system does not pass the System Test, check any of these potential trouble areas: cabling, satellite dish position,
phone connection and access card.
6. If you continue to have problems, call DIRECTV Customer Service at 1.800.531.5000.
NOTE: Occasional fluctuations in the phone line or satellite signal can give temporary false readings, therefore we recommend
running a system test several times before concluding there is a problem.
