The following is a step-by-step procedure for retuning your Miralite receiver.
The easiest way to perform the retune is with your remote control, which should have a fresh set of batteries in it. The remote can be identified by the letters “D B S” toward the bottom.
Let’s get started. To begin, push the “MENU” button on the remote. The following menu bar seen here should appear on your TV/Monitor.
Push the “Arrow/Channel Down” button until “System” is highlighted in yellow. Once System is highlighted, push the “Select” button. A new list will appear with “Set Up” already highlighted in yellow. Now push the “Select” button again to enter the programming screen.
The first line of this screen should read “Record Number” with “0” highlighted in blue to the right. If it does not read “0”, press your “Left or Right Arrow” buttons until “0” is selected.
To continue on, you’ll need to change both the Down Link Frequency and Symbol Rate information to complete the retune.
Next, press the “Arrow/Channel Down” button 3 times to highlight “Down Link Frequency”. Once highlighted, enter the new information by using the number pad on the remote. Enter “1 4 2 7 0 0 0”.
Next, press the “Arrow/Channel Down” button to highlight the “Symbol Rate” line. Enter the new Symbol Rate by pressing “2 0 5 0 0”.
With these entries completed, push the “Select” button. Your TV/Monitor will display “Searching For Programs”. After a few moments, the New York Network color bars should appear with a running time clock, and the yellow “LOCK” light should be lit on the front panel of the receiver indicating a signal lock.
And with that, you’ve successfully retuned your Miralite Receiver!
