C. HOW TO READ THIS MANUAL

1. THE BASICS
1A. CONNECTIONS AND VIDEO SETTINGS
When installing your HDDSR, 1 direct coax line is required to connect to your satellite dish or
multiswitch. If you have an HDPVR, 2 direct coax lines are required. The HDPVR will not
function if only 1 line is connected. If you would like us to take care of the installation, call
Customer Service – we’re here 24/7 to discuss available options and help you book an
appointment.
If you are unsure of how to connect your satellite receiver to your TV or home theatre system,
please refer to the corresponding product manual or the directions that came with your satellite
receiver.
CABLE TYPES
Note that the following cable types must be used to provide high definition (HD) picture:
• COMPONENT: Look for three connectors on each end, coloured green, blue, and red. This
cable does not carry sound.
• DVI-TO- HDMI: This cable allows you to connect a DVI-only TV to your satellite receiver.
This cable does not carry sound. The DVI port must be HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection) compliant.
• HDMI: This cable carries both video and sound. It has a single identical connector on
both ends.
The following cable types will provide Dolby Digital Plus and 5.1 Surround Sound when
connected to a capable home theatre receiver:
• OPTICAL: This thin cable has a small square connector at each end.
• HDMI: If supported by your home theatre receiver, you can use a single HDMI cable to
connect your receiver to your home theatre system, and another HDMI cable to connect
the home theatre system to the TV. Both video and sound are carried in the cable.
For the best television experience, it is recommended that you connect your HD receiver with one
of the above video and audio connections. Component video and Optical audio are not available
on the HDDSR 600.
2
VIDEO SETTINGS
After connecting your satellite receiver, taking a moment to optimize your video settings will
ensure the best viewing experience. Press OPTIONS on your remote control, then enter the
numbers 4, 5. The following Video Settings options will be available:
• OUTPUT FORMAT: This determines the primary resolution that is used to send video to your
TV. On most HDTVs, 1080i is optimal. For SDTVs, use 480i.
• 4X3 OVERRIDE: Turning this on will “override” the primary output format when tuned to
standard definition stations. Turning on the override allows most TVs to automatically
stretch SD content to fill the whole screen. If you’d prefer to control this yourself using
the ASPECT button, leave it Off.
• TV TYPE: This option specifies what type of TV you have. Widescreen TVs are 16x9 (such
as most HDTVs); traditional square TVs (such as most SDTVs) are 4x3. Select whichever
is applicable to you.
On a regular HDTV, recommended settings are 1080i, 480i, and 16x9 and will normally result in
standard definition channels automatically “stretched” by your TV to fit the screen.
On an SDTV connected via HDMI or component video, recommended settings are 480i, Off, and
4x3 Letterbox. For SDTVs connected via composite video or coaxial, changing these settings will
have no effect and is not necessary.
Select “SAVE” and press ENTER after changing the settings and EXIT to return to live TV.
If you select an output format that is not supported by your TV, video may be
lost. If this occurs, press EXIT, OPTIONS, 4, 5, and then 6 repeatedly until
video returns. The selected output format will be displayed on the Front Panel
of the receiver (if applicable) with each change.
You can use the ASPECT or B button while watching any program or recording
to stretch or zoom the picture. You can return the aspect to normal when the
program has finished. The current aspect mode is shown on screen each time
you press the button.
3
ADDITIONAL CONNECTIONS
The following connections may also be required for access to certain features or services.
• ETHERNET: An Ethernet cable is used to connect your receiver to your home router, which
provides access to the internet. Internet connectivity currently enables instant access to
over 4000 of your favourite movies, TV shows, and music videos with Video on Demand
(VOD). More details on Shaw Direct On Demand VOD can be found in the appendix at
the end of this manual.
• PHONE LINE: Connecting your HDDSR 605 or HDPVR 630 to your home phone line allows
you to instantly order select PPV movies and events. Plus, if you subscribe to Caller ID,
this information will appear onscreen when a call comes in.
• ESATA: An eSATA hard drive can be connected to the HDPVR 630 to add even more
recording capacity. Refer to page 39 for more information on this feature.
1B. CURRENT VERSION
Pressing OPTIONS, 4, 7 will display the System Status menu. Line H shows the version of your
receiver software, listed as “Current Version”. This manual applies to Current Version 08.26 and
higher. Individual menus, options, or functionality may be slightly different depending on your
Current Version. If you have questions about whether your receiver has the most recent version,
please inquire with the Shaw Direct agent when you activate your receiver.
1C. ACTIVATING YOUR RECEIVER
Once connected, your receiver must be activated on your Shaw Direct account in order to access
programming and function properly. You can reach Shaw Direct customer service anytime at
1-888-554-7827 to activate your receiver.
1D. USING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
For a full list of all buttons and their function, refer to the manual that came with your remote or
the Welcome Guide that came with your receiver. Throughout this manual, refer to the green
table on the right side of the page to know which buttons access a particular functionality.

NAVIGATING THE ONSCREEN MENUS

available options or confirm the current selection. For example:
1. Pressing ENTER will display the Program Options menu for Angry Planet.
2. Pressing ENTER will confirm deletion of the recording schedule.

RIGHT arrow key will change the Screen Saver delay to 16 Minute.
4. Pressing the LEFT or RIGHT arrow keys will toggle between New episodes and All episodes.

2B. SEARCH TOOLS
With over 400 channels and two weeks of programming information, sometimes it can be
difficult to find what you’re looking for using the Guide. By using the search tools built into your
receiver, you can easily find programs airing on live TV by title, time, or genre.
TITLE SEARCH
Title Search allows you to input the name of the show or movie you’re looking for. Matching
results will be displayed on the right side of the screen, where you can tune into the program,
see upcoming air dates, set up a recording or reminder, or get information about the show.
After selecting “Title Search” from the Menu Bar, use the DIRECTIONAL ARROWS and ENTER
button to type letters into the Search tool. Results will begin to appear as soon as the first letter
is entered. Once you see what you’re looking for, use the RIGHT ARROW to select the list, and
the UP or DOWN keys to select the program. Pressing ENTER will give you the Program Options
menu on the HDPVR, and the Upcoming Air Dates screen on the HDDSR.
INTERESTS SEARCH
Interests Search is useful when you’re not looking for a specific show, don’t know the title of the
show you’re looking for, or just want to find a particular genre to watch or record. Similar to Title
Search, as you select the time, category, and genre you are looking for, results will narrow or
expand on the right side of the screen.
After selecting “Interests” from the Menu Bar, use the UP and DOWN keys to select the time you
would like to search in. Examples include “anytime”, “up next”, or “this week”. Then, use the
RIGHT ARROW to select the middle column where you can pick a broad category using the UP
and DOWN keys. A variety of choices are available here, including “Movies”, “Sports”,
“Children”, and “HD”. Use the RIGHT ARROW again to select the third column, which will show
the available genres, such as “Action”, “Musical Comedy”, “Nature”, or “Talk”. Once the genre
you’re looking for has loaded, use the RIGHT ARROW to select the list, and the UP or DOWN
keys to browse through the available programs. Pressing ENTER will give you the Program
Options menu on the HDPVR, and the Upcoming Air Dates screen on the HDDSR.
Any series Recording Events created from the top-level search results (before
selecting “view upcoming air dates”) will default to record on all channels,
unless changed in the PVR Options menu. See section 5 for more details.
