System info and zip code showing as 00000?

[KoRn]

DTV replaced our HR22 with another new HR22 not to long ago. I noticed while browsing around under system info. It shows our zip code as 00000. How do I input our zip code or is it no big deal?

It's no big deal, but you can re-run the satellite setup and set it.

Hi,

Am I missing some thing? I just tried that and no option came up to put my zip code in. I re-run the satellite setup and hit continue. Was I suppose to select another option before hitting continue?

The ONLY thing entering your ZIP code does is displays the dish settings for your dish and zip code. All other "zip code" information comes from your account information at DirecTV, which you can't see from the receiver. For example, which DMA you are in, to determine which locals you are authorized for, is all determined by your account information, NOT what you type (or don't) into the receiver.

If you continue through the sat setup, you'll be asked to type in your zip. Most installers skip that step, because they already know the settings for the area they work in.
