Connecting Your DVR
Make sure that the satellite receiver is not plugged into a power source before you connect any cables to the receiver. First connect the satellite input from your satellite dish to your receiver.
There are several way to connect your DVR to your television or monitor and other home theater components.
Video: Utilize the modulated RF output (good), Composite video output (better), S-Video output (best for standard definition), or Component video outputs (best for high definition) to connect the DVR directly to your television, VCR, and home theater A/V receiver.
Audio: The modulated RF output also provides audio along with video to televisions or VCRs (good). Utilize the stereo audio output (better) or the electrical or optical Digital audio outputs (best) to connect the DVR directly to your television, VCR, and home theater A/V receiver.
PPV: Connect the telco phone jack to a home telephone jack for Instant Pay-Per-View (IPPV) reportback. Star Choice will not permit IPPV unless this remains connected.
Connect the external antenna input if applicable for local off-air TV broadcast.
Plug the DVR power cord into a standard power outlet. Wait one minute, and then press the ON key located on the left side of the satellite receiver’s front panel.
Notes:
Video and audio quality should be best when the DVR is connected directly to the primary output component, such as the television or monitor (for video), and the television or home theater A/V receiver (for audio). Use quality cables designed for these applications.
If you are using the component video outputs, you may have to toggle the HDTV mode select button behind the flip-down door on the front panel. This toggles the HDTV output between 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i, and native modes. Native mode (0000) is the original transmitted signal. You should leave this on native mode unless your TV or monitor requires a specific mode such as 1080i.
If you are using the RF output tune your TV to channel 3 or 4 to match the position of the channel 3/4 switch on the back panel of the satellite receiver.
Home theater A/V receivers can provide a method to connect multiple input sources if your television does not have enough input connectors. Some home theater A/V receivers may also provide very good or enhanced quality. Refer to your home theater A/V receiver instructions for further information.

Introduction to Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
DVR Overview
Setting DVR Options
The DVR530 is the first satellite receiver from Star Choice to feature Digital Video Recording (DVR) technology. Similar to a personal computer, the DVR530 has an internal hard disk onto which video and audio are recorded. The recordings are 100% digital, maintaining the superb quality of the original broadcast.
There are several ways to customize how your DVR530 will record and playback programs.
Press the OPTIONS key on the remote control, and then select System Setup (option 6), then System Settings (option 4), then DVR (option 8), then DVR Settings (option 1) and the menu will appear.
Live Record to Disk. This option has two settings: Enable and Disable. Enable allows the DVR to record a buffer of any live TV you are viewing for use in pausing and reversing programs. This buffer recording is temporary, and is erased and re-started each time the receiver is set to standby mode or a new channel is tuned-in. The maximum length of the buffer recording is 90 minutes. Disable will prevent the recording of the buffer and also prevent the use of pause and reverse features while viewing live programming, but will not prevent the DVR from recording programs using a Scheduled Timer Event or Impulse Recording.
Time Travel Settings. These settings control the function of the Skip-Forward and Skip­Backward buttons on your remote control, which allow you to immediately fast-forward or reverse playback by a pre-set number of seconds while viewing a recorded program (or when available during live programming). The default values are 30 seconds forward and 10 seconds backward.
You may change either value by selecting the box with the current value pressing the left arrow button on the remote control to erase the pre-existing values. Then enter your preferred number of seconds using the remote control.

Resetting Default DVR Settings
If you would like to revert any changes you have made to the DVR setup, Press the OPTIONS key on the remote control, and then select System Setup (option 6), then System Settings (option 4), then DVR (option 8), then Reset DVR Settings (option 3) and a warning message will appear. Select “CONFIRM” to complete the reset and return
to the OPTIONS
menu. Once reset, your custom settings cannot be retrieved.
Timers
Timers, also called Scheduled Events, are created to instruct the DVR530 to perform certain tasks at pre-determined times. There are three types of Timers to help you view or record programs: Auto-Tune, Reminder and DVR. An Auto-Tune Timer will cause the receiver to automatically tune to a specified program when it begins. A Reminder Timer will display an on-screen reminder when a specified program is about to start. Both the Auto-Tune and Reminder Timer will display their on-screen reminders whether you are watching live programming or recorded programming. A DVR Timer will allow the automatic recording of program(s) you specify. The DVR Timer is a new feature unique to the DVR530, and is the primary means of recording programs.
Creating Timers from the IPG
To schedule any type of Timer from within the Interactive Program Guide, highlight the program you would like to create a Timer around and select it by pressing ENTER on the remote control. From the Program Information screen that appears, select the type of Timer you wish to create. The IPG will re-appear with a clock icon (for an Auto-Tune or Reminder Timer) or a recording icon (for a DVR Timer) below the program title.
Page 23

Scheduled Events (Timers)
Creating Timers from the IPG (cont)
DVR Timers can be set by a special short-cut: highlight the program you wish to record and press the record button on the remote control to instantly create a DVR Timer for the program. The recording icon will appear below the program title. You can also cancel a pre­existing DVR timer by highlighting the program and pressing the record button on the remote control again.
Manually Creating and Modifying Timers from the Options Menu.
To create Timers with advanced options or to modify and cancel existing Timers, access the Timers menu. Press the OPTIONS key on the remote control, then select Timers (option 5) and the menu will appear. You will see any existing timers listed followed by a line reading “Press Enter to create event timer”. To create a new Timer, highlight this line and press ENTER on the remote control. To modify or delete an existing Timer, highlight the appropriate line instead. The Event Timer screen will appear.
The following options are set when creating or modifying a Timer:
Timer Type: Select Auto-Tune, Reminder or DVR.
Frequency: Select Once for a one-time recording; Weekly for a Timer that recurs at the
same day, time and channel each week; Daily for a Timer that recurs at the same time and channel each day; Or Mon-Fri for a “daily”-style Timer that skips Saturday and Sunday. The Mon-Fri Timer can be created or modified on any day of the week.
Start Time: Set to the time at which your program begins or the time you would like the Auto-Tune or Reminder Timer to alert you.
End Time: For a DVR Timer, the end time should be the time when recording should stop, for Auto-Tune and Reminder Timers, any time after the Start Time will suffice.
Page 24
24
Date. Set to the date on which you would like the Timer to activate. For Mon-Fri Timers, the current date or any weekday date thereafter will suffice.
Channel: The channel of the program you wish to record, auto-tune to or be reminded of.
Once each parameter is correct, select SAVE to create the Timer and return to the Timers Menu. To remove a Timer, select DELETE to erase the Timer and return to the Timers Menu.
Only DVR Timers can be modified or deleted after their Start Time. Any Timer controlling a recording in progress will be marked with a record icon in the Timers Menu. Modifying the End Time of a DVR Timer while the recording is in progress will extend the recording to the new End Time that is entered, and deleting a DVR Timer while the recording is in progress will stop the recording, but perverse the partial recording for viewing.
Timer Conflicts
The DVR530 is capable of handling one DVR Timer and one Auto-Tune OR Reminder Timer that begin at the exact same time, but cannot support two DVR Timers or two Auto-Tune/ Reminder Timers with the same Start Time. If you attempt to create a new Event Timers that conflicts with a pre-existing Timer, a warning message will be displayed, followed by a screen allowing you to delete or modify either the pre-existing Timer, listed as “Timer 1” or the Timer being created, listed as “Timer 2”. Follow the on-screen instructions to resolve your Timer Conflict. A common technique to maintain two or more Timers for the same programming time-slot is to set the Timers one minute apart.
Page 25
25
Recording Programs
The DVR530 uses an internal hard disk with 160 gigabytes of storage capacity, able store over 130 hours of Standard Definition programming or more than
25 hours in High Definition
programming. The DVR will automatically record each program in the proper format, and is capable of storing programs in both formats simultaneously. There are several methods of recording programs using the DVR.
When any Event Timer is scheduled, including DVR Recordings, a red clock icon
will appear on the front panel of the DVR530 receiver.
While the DVR530 is recording a program, the four blue bar lights on the front
panel of the receiver will cycle continuously.
Impulse Recording
While viewing any program, press the record button on the remote control to begin recording that program. You will be prompted to choose between recording the program until the scheduled end time or to select different parameters by opening the Event Timers screen.
Scheduled Recording
You may schedule the recording of programs using a DVR Timer (See section on Timers). All recorded programs are accessed using the DVR List, but the way the DVR Timer is created can affect the way the programs are displayed within the DVR List:
Recording by Program VS. Recording by Time: When programs are recorded one-by­one, by setting individual DVR Timers, each program will have its own entry in the DVR List, even if multiple successive programs are recorded from the same channel. This means that you will be able to view, protect and delete each program independently of all others.
Recording
Page 26
26
When a DVR Timer is manually created to record a specific channel across a particular range of time, the DVR treats the entire time period as a single recording, regardless of how many different programs were recorded during the period. In the DVR List, the recording will be listed under the title of the first program recorded within the period, marked with a (+) symbol. The titles of other programs recorded within that time period will be displayed when the listing is selected. These multi-program recordings will NOT allow each program to be viewed, deleted or protected individually. While viewing such a recording, you will need to start viewing at the beginning of the first program and then advance or reverse within the recording to reach the different programs. Deleting the recording will erase all the programs within it as a group.
Canceling or Modifying a Recording
To cancel a scheduled recording, or to cancel or extend a recording in-progress, access the Timers Menu to edit the Timer for the recording as described in the Timers section.
Viewing and Recording Simultaneously
The DVR530 can tune into two separate channels simultaneously, allowing you to record one program while you view another.
If you have scheduled a recording event, the specified program(s) will be recorded no matter what you are viewing during the scheduled time. While the DVR records your program, you will still have complete control of the DVR530 to view live programming and previously recorded programs, with all the same control to pause, reverse and advance, as well as to use the IPG, Options Menu and DVR List. Only Impulse Recording will be unavailable while another program is being recorded.
While your program is being recorded, all other features of the DVR530 are still available, so you may view any live or recorded programs, with the full control to pause, reverse or advance you would have while not recording.
Page 27

Recording Problems
If your DVR530 experiences an interruption in satellite reception or AC power during a recording event, the resulting recording may be incomplete, and the video and audio could be partially distorted during playback. In extreme cases, a problem of this sort could result in total loss of the program being recorded. Within the DVR List, ‘broken’ recordings which are incomplete or have been corrupted in this way are marked with a special icon.
The DVR List
The DVR List is the menu screen from which you may access your recorded programs to view, manage or delete them. Press the DVR LIST button on the remote control, or press the OPTIONS key on the remote control, and then select DVR List (option 9) and the list of your recorded programs will appear. Highlight any program title from the DVR List and press ENTER on the remote control to view the Recording Details screen and play or modify the recording.
DVR Icons
Within the DVR List or IPG, programs may be marked with any of several icons:
Indicates a “Protected” recording. Seen in the DVR list next to a recorded program.
When the center of this icon is red, it means a program is scheduled to be recorded or is in the process of recording, When the center of this icon is grey, it indicates the recording has completed. Seen below the program title in the IPG or in the DVR List next to a recorded program.
Indicates a broken recording, a recording that did not finish or is otherwise corrupted. Seen in the DVR list next to a recorded program.
Indicates an Auto-Tune or Reminder Timer has been set. Seen below the program title in the IPG.

DVR Playback
Viewing Recorded Programs
Select the recording you wish to view from within the DVR List to display the Recording Details screen. Select “PLAY” to view the recording. You may begin playback of a program before the recording has completed, and the recording will continue as you view the program from the beginning. If you have already viewed a portion of a recorded program, a confirmation screen will appear when you play the recording again, prompting you to restart the program from the beginning or to resume from the point at which the playback was stopped.
Controlling/Stopping Playback: Your remote control offers enhanced VCR-style buttons for controlling the playback of your recorded programs:
PLAY/PAUSE. Use either button to pause or resume playback
FAST FORWARD. Use to accelerate the playback at increasing speeds.
Multiple presses causes faster playback.
FAST REVERSE. Use to reverse playback at increasing speeds. Multiple presses causes faster reversal.
STOP. Use to cease playback of recorded program and return to DVR List.
SKIP-FORWARD/SKIP-BACKWARD. Use these buttons to skip a pre-set
number of seconds forward or backward. Defaults are 30 seconds forward and 10 seconds backward.

Live Programming Controls
Protecting and Deleting Recorded Programs
Recorded programs remain stored on the DVR530 until you choose to delete them.
After a recording has completed you can prevent accidental deletion of the program by protecting it. Within the Recording Details screen for a recorded program, select “PROTECT” and an icon will appear next to the program’s entry in the DVR List. The program cannot be deleted individually or via the “DELETE ALL” option until you disable the protection. To do so, access the Recording Details screen again and select “UNPROTECT”.
To erase your recorded programs, access the DVR List and select “DELETE ALL” to erase all unprotected programs. To erase programs individually, the Recording Details screen for any unprotected program and select “DELETE” to immediately erase the program. Once a
program is deleted, it cannot be recovered.
Enhanced Live TV Viewing
While full playback control is only possible on pre-recorded programs, the DVR530 offers several enhanced options for use while viewing live broadcasts. NOTE: These features
require the “Live Record to Disk” feature to be enabled. This feature is enabled by default, see page 18 for details.
Pausing Live Programs
Press the pause button on the remote control at any time to pause the program you are viewing. The image will freeze and a pause icon will appear in the lower right corner of the screen. A timer next to the pause icon will display the time elapsed since the program was paused. Press the play button on the remote control to resume playback at any time within 90 minutes of pausing.
Page 30
30
After resuming playback you will be viewing a delayed recording of the program you paused, and the timer will display the time difference between the recording and the live broadcast. While in this delayed mode, you may pause again, fast forward, fast reverse, skip-forward or skip-backward until you return to live programming. You can return to the live broadcast either by advancing the recording until it “catches up” to the live program, or by pressing the stop button on the remote control.
You may view the IPG, Options Menu and DVR List while a live program is paused, but tuning to a different channel, playing a previously recorded program or putting the DVR530 into standby mode will erase the delayed recording and you will be unable to resume your paused program.
‘Instant Replay’
While viewing any program, use the fast reverse or skip-backward buttons on the remote control to reverse to any point you have viewed within the past 90 minutes or since you tuned to the current channel. It is not possible to reverse to programming you viewed on a previous channel. To return to live programming after reversing, press the stop button on the remote control or advance the playback (using the Skip-Forward or Fast Forward controls) until the playback “catches up” to the live programming.
TIP: You may use the Pause and Replay features together: If you reverse a live program after pausing it, you will be able to reverse to the moment when you last tuned to that channel, not only to the moment when the program was paused.
Page 31

On-Screen Displays During Viewing
While viewing recorded programs or using live TV features like pause, the DVR530 helps you control the playback with on-screen icons and indicators.
On-screen displays usually disappear to give you an unobstructed view of your programs, but when the remote control is used to control playback, a banner will appear along the bottom on the screen containing details of the program being viewed as well as indicators for the controls being used. Press ENTER on the remote at any time to view this banner without affecting playback. The banner will always disappear after several seconds of inactivity.
At the right of the banner, you will see the channel number and original broadcast time of the recorded program underneath the current date and time. Midway across the banner the title of the recorded program is displayed below a yellow progress indicator. This blue bar will fill from left to right with yellow until the end of the recording is reached. At the left of the banner, you will see a timer that counts either the progress of the recording or the time difference between live programming and your paused or reversed program. Beside this timer you will see a circular space inside of which the control icons appear.

Programming
Your DVR remote control can be programmed to operate your TV and auxiliary components. Follow these instructions to program the remote control.
- Turn on the TV or component you wish to program.
- Use the table in this section to find the brand of the desired component. After the manufacturer’s brand name is one or more four-digit codes.
- Press and hold the TV, DVD or AUX key on the remote control until the mode keys on the remote flash. (Note: the DVD key is labeled DVD for convenience. It may be programmed with any usable component code such as VCR.).
- While the mode keys are flashing, key in the first of the four-digit codes listed in the table for your brand.
- If it is a usable code the mode key will flash rapidly to indicate that it has accepted the code. Press the POWER key on the remote control to make sure the remote control is able to turn your TV or component off and back on.
- If it is not a usable code use the next four-digit code from the list until the remote control is programmed correctly.
Components may respond to more than one code. If your component does not respond to the remote as it should then an alternate code may be more functional or you can try scanning for an alternate code by using the
following procedure.
If Your Four-Digit Code is not in the Tables (Scan)
If you try to program your remote control using the four-digit codes, and the remote control does not work correctly, you may be able to find a code that works by using the “scan” process.
- Turn on the TV.
- Press and hold the TV mode key on the remote control until the mode keys on the remote begin to flash.
- While pointing the remote control at your TV, press the UP navigation key to scan upward to the next code. (Use the DOWN key to return to the previous code.)
- If a transmitted code is the correct one, your TV will turn off, responding as if its POWER key were pressed. The mode key will remain lighted. Press ENTER and the mode key will blink rapidly indicating acceptance.
- If your TV does not respond, press the UP navigation key to try the next code. When your component turns off you will know that you have found the correct code. Press ENTER to confirm.
- The DVD and AUX keys may be programmed to operate a variety of components but you must first program the selected mode with a valid code or program it using the following starting points: press “1000” if scanning TV codes; “2000” if scanning VCR codes; “3000” if scanning CD or DVD codes; “4000” if scanning audio receiver codes; “5000” if scanning TV/VCR combinations or “6000” if scanning for cable boxes. The mode key will flash rapidly indicating acceptance. Then press and hold the AUX or VCR key untill all the mode keys flash. Press the UP navigation key until your component turns off. Press ENTER and the mode key will flash to indicate acceptance.

Verifying Your Component Codes
To verify the accepted programming codes follow these steps.
- Press the SAT, TV, DVD or AUX key for at least three seconds or until the LED blinks.
- Press the “INFO” key. The LED will blink, indicating the code of your component in the following sequence. For example, if your TV code is for a Tandy brand TV (code 1005) the blink pattern will be:
Pause>long blink “1;” Pause>short blink “0;” Pause>short blink “0;” Pause>long blink, long blink, long blink, long blink, long blink “5.”
A zero in the code will always be represented by a short blink.
Programming the Master Power Feature
You can control the power on/off function of your satellite receiver and all connected equipment with a single press of the POWER key on your remote control. Enable the remote control’s Master Power feature by following these steps:
- Press the SAT key on the remote control for at least three seconds or until the light on the key blinks.
- Press the POWER key on the remote. The light will remain on steady. Press the power key a second time, and the light on the remote will blink on and off briefly, which indicates that the remote has accepted the Master Power command.
To cancel the Master Power feature, just repeat the steps above.
Volume Control Crossover
Your remote control is programmed from the factory to control the volume of your television set when you re using the remote control in the TV mode. You can choose to have the SAT mode control the volume of your television directly, instead. The AUX mode can also be programmed to control the audio. To program your remote control for this feature:
- Press the SAT for at least three seconds or until the LED blinks then press the TV or AUX key to allow the TV or AUX device to control the volume.
- If another device (TV or AUX) is currently controlling the volume and you wish to transfer it to the satellite receiver press the device mode key until the mode keys blink then press the SAT mode key again.
If You Have More Than One Satellite Receiver
If you have more than one satellite receiver, you may want to prevent the remote controls from affecting the other receivers. To prevent this interference, you must “pair” each remote control and receiver and assign a new “address” to each pair. If you have multiple receivers, see page 16 for the procedure to assign addresses.
If you have programmed the receiver for volume control crossover and change the address, volume control crossover must be reprogrammed.
