Quick Steps for Experienced Users

Experienced users may prefer to follow these quick steps to test DVR services.
Users who require step-by-step instructions should go to Testing DVR Services (on
page 40).
1 Wait an appropriate amount of time for the system to broadcast channel map
and SAM changes to DHCTs before testing DVR services.
Note: Channel map and SAM changes are broadcast to DHCTs on a regular basis
according to the setting for the SAM Update Timer. The default time for the
timer setting is every 20 minutes. However, you can verify the amount of time
your system allows by checking the Update Timer setting in the SAM
Configuration window (DNCS Administrative Console > Applications
Interface Modules tab > SAM Config).
2 Provision a DVR in your headend for the DVR service.
Note: To provision a DVR, add the DVR package to the set-top in your headend.
3 Verify that the services function appropriately on the DVR you have provisioned
by testing each feature you have customized. For a list of customizations to
verify, go to Verifying the Service Setup (on page 41).
