TIME SETTING & EPG ELECTRONIC PROGRAM GUIDE

Each time you turn the receiver ON you will be asked if you want the EPG. Click OK to download the EPG, this is the guide to tell you what is on TV. If you say EXIT you may only get one or two hours of the guide. If you need to refresh the EPG for any reason just turn the receiver OFF & ON from the front, but first make sure the time, date & day are correct. Use the remote number pad to change this. You need to be on 119 or 110 Satellite to download EPG. Will not work on Bev. After the guide download you can click on GUIDE then SIGNAL on the remote. You will get what is on that channel for several hours. If you have changed the Satellite name from ECHO to DISH you may not get asked if you want to download the EPG when you first turn on the receiver. More info on this under CHANNEL ORDER.

CHANNEL ORDER

If your channels are in a sid (channel) number order and not in the order you numbered them to be, do this. Put the word DUMMY as the first Satellite in the Satellite list with Channel Master. In CM right click on the word SATELLITE then click on ADD SATELLITE. Put DUMMY for the name then click OK. Now you need to move the word DUMMY from the bottom of the Satellite list to the top so it's the first one. Also you should change the word ECHO to DISH on each Satellite you are getting. Right click on the Satellite you want to change then click on PROPERTIES then change ECHO to DISH. You can save it in CM under Fortec Lifetime Ultra. If you change the ECHO name you may not get asked to download the EPG when you first turn on the receiver. More info on this under ELECTRONIC PROGRAM GUIDE & TIME SETTING.
