Check wiring and input settings
If you don't see the DIRECTV Central screen after you powercycle your DIRECTV Recorder, there
is likely a problem with your cable wiring or input setting on your TV, VCR, or A/V Receiver rather
than a problem with your remote control.
Check your wiring to make sure that all of your cables are securely connected.
Check the input settings on your TV, VCR, and A/V Receiver. This may involve pressing the
"Input" or "TV/VCR" button on the remote control for your TV, VCR, and A/V Receiver.
If you are still not able to see DIRECTV Central once your check all of your settings, please call
the number listed in your manual for additional troubleshooting.
