HOW IT WORKS
TDS TV receives digital signals and transmits
them through a set-top box (STB). Use the Universal
Remote Control (included) to access and
manage your system’s services.
SET-TOP BOX
There are two set-top box models available, the
Scientific Atlanta 330 and the Scientific Atlanta
430. Both models can be enabled to receive HD
channels, while the Scientific Atlanta 430 features
a Digital Video Recorder (DVR).
The following details are provided for informational
purposes only. Do not change or alter any of the
equipment installed by TDS.
At times, TDS may need the MAC1 address for
your set-top box. This will allow us to provide new
services remotely, without sending a technician
to your home. The 12-character MAC1 address is
printed on the label on the bottom of the STB.
