Explorer 2200 Installation Instructions Manual
Before Installing the DHCT
Before you begin to install the DHCT, locate the DHCT serial number. The serial number is located on the back panel of the DHCT, and looks
similar to this example:
The serial number is located in the lower left corner of the bar code. Write the serial number here: _______________ . It is always good to
have the serial number on file. If your system requires troubleshooting in the future, our customer service professional may ask for the serial
number. If you plug the DHCT into an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch, keep the switch in the ON position. The on-scr een guide is
updated nightly. If the wall switch is in the OFF position, your DHCT will not receive the latest programming updates. Keep the top of the
DHCT free of all objects and electronic devices, including your T V. It is recommended that you use a surge protector with your cable equipment and electronic devices.
