Hook Up Multiple Direct Tv Dvrs

Record satellite programming whenever you choose.


The satellite provider DirecTV offers DVR service to all of its subscribers. With DVR you may record programming whenever you choose and watch the content at a later date. If you install multiple DVRs throughout your home, you may record a live program on one television and watch it on a different DVR. This is a useful feature when it isn't possible for you to be in the room you recorded the content in.


Instructions


1. Contact your DirecTV provider (1-888-777-2454) and request to upgrade your package to include DVRs. You do not need to use a DVR with all of your receivers. If you are setting up your satellite service for the first time, you may decide how many rooms you wish to have DVRs installed in (up to a maximum of four). When the installation technician arrives, direct him to the rooms you wish to install the DVRs in.


2. Connect the coaxial cable connecting the satellite dish to the wall into the "In" port on the back of the first DVR. The DVR is built into the receiver, so you do not need two separate devices to obtain and view your programming.


3. Plug the red, white and yellow RCA audio/video cables into the "Video Out" ports on the back of your DVR. Insert the opposite ends of the cables into the "Video In" ports on your television. Power on your television and DVR and push "Video" on the TV's remote control to begin watching satellite programming.


4. Repeat the hookup process for all of the other DVRs that you have.
