The PROGRAM GUIDE (LG. CELL)
The
PROGRAM GUIDE (LG. CELL)
displays 2-hours of programming. Up to eight channels can be
seen at any one time. This number is reduced to six if the program description option is enabled.
Let’s look at the elements that make up the
PROGRAM GUIDE (LG. CELL)
. The large area
containing the various program titles is known as the “grid.” Programs occupy cells within the grid. If
a program title cannot fit entirely, an ellipsis (“…”) is included to indicate that title information is
missing.
Some cells have arrows associated with them. These arrows indicate that the program started at an
earlier time or continues until a later time than is displayed in the grid. Each grid cell approximates the
duration of the associated program.
A time line spanning the width of the guide indicates the show times of the programs being displayed.
The list of blocks running down the left-hand side are the “channel tags.” Depending on the
Channel
Tag
(Name/Number or Logos) specified in your system’s
PREFERENCES
screen (described in the
chapter, “Your Receiver’s Menu System”) the tags may display the channel numbers and call signs or
network logos. Also, the
Channel Sort
(Name or Number) specified in your system’s
PREFERENCES
screen will dictate whether the channels are listed in numeric order by channel
number, or alphabetical order by call sign.
To move around the guide, use the , , , and keys. You can continue to press the or keys to
scroll more program offerings onto the screen.
To speed up the process of reviewing the guide, you can use
or
to page through the guide
entries a full page at a time.
When the highlight is in the grid, you can use the and keys to move left and right. If you move the
highlight onto the channel tags, they will temporarily change to the opposite of what they were before
(either channel numbers and call signs, or network logos).
Move the highlight to the right to move the grid area to reveal later time periods. Sometimes, after
scrolling a few hours into the future, there may be a brief delay while more information is received
from the satellite.
