Change Network Status
Change Network Status controls DVR’s availability in the Whole Home Network. Here is what the different statuses
mean:
A visible status allows the DVR to make all of its recorded programs and scheduled recordings accessible to any other
DVR or non-DVR receiver in the network. Also, a visible status allows a DVR to accept recording requests from any other
networked DVR or a non-DVR receiver. In other words, visible status operates both ways.
An invisible status allows the DVR to hide all of its recorded programs and scheduled recordings from being accessed
by any other DVR or non-DVR receiver in the network. However, an invisible DVR can access the recorded programs and
scheduled recordings that are stored on all visible DVRs in the network. In other words, invisible status operates only
one way. Invisible status is beneficial in situations where you do not wish to make recordings from your personal DVR
available to other receivers in your household, but at the same time you wish to have full access to recordings stored on
other DVRs in your network.
By default, all DVRs in your Whole Home network are set as visible DVRs. To change network status of your DVR, begin
at the Receivers Menu.
1. Press the RIGHT arrow or SELECT button
to open the Receivers Menu in the center
card.
2. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight DVR
Network and press SELECT or RIGHT arrow.
A DVR Network Menu will display in the
center card.
3. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight Change
Network Status and press SELECT.
4. Use the UP and DOWN arrow to make the
appropriate choice. Press SELECT.
5. Enter Parental Control PIN using the
number (0-9) buttons on your remote.
6. Press the LEFT arrow three times to return
to the Settings Menu or press EXIT to return to live television.
Note: This setting is only available on DVRs. Also, this process may take up to 5 minutes while the DVR List updates.
You can change the network status
of DVR in the Settings Menu.
