Resetting to Factory Defaults
RESETTING TO FACTORY DEFAULTS
You can reset the receiver to discard any changes you have made to receiver settings,
except for remote-control addresses and locks. Resetting the receiver to factory default
settings also discards all Favorite Lists except for the All Chan, All Sub, and All HD lists.
You cannot reset the receiver to default settings to discard or reset a password you have
forgotten. No one but a DISH Customer Service Representative can reset the receiver to
bypass a password-protected parental control setting or lock restriction.
1 Press the MENU button, select System Setup, and then Factory Defaults. The receiver
displays a Warning message to confirm that you want to reset the receiver’s preferences.
2 Select Yes.
RECEIVER UPDATES
Your receiver will turn itself off (that is, enter standby automatically) after a set period of
inactivity. To change the length of or disable this period, do the following:
1 Press MENU, highlight and select the Settings tile, and then Diagnostics.
2 Select Updates, choose an inactivity period from the list, and then select Save.
Your receiver also comes scheduled to update its Electronic Program Guide (EPG)
information at 1:00 a.m. every day. This feature is enabled so that your DVR event data
and Seek & Record™ timers remain current as programming schedules change.
Note: This feature does not interfere with any scheduled event timers.
TIPS
• To take full advantage of Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound, you need a digital optical
audio cable and audio equipment that supports this feature.
• To use the Caller ID feature on your Hopper with Sling HD DVR, be sure to have it
connected to an active telephone line and have Caller ID service provided from your
phone company.
