How do I set up my digital adapter?

You’ll receive a kit with equipment and instructions to install your digital adapter. Then, visit our remote page to identify and program your remote.

Do I need to set my TV to a specific channel?

If you used coaxial cable to connect your adapter, set your TV and adapter to either channel 3 or 4, whichever channel doesn't currently receive programming. If you used an HDMI cable, make sure your TV is set to the correct input/source.

What's the difference between a CoMPAS X-Stream Receiver and a digital adapter?

A CoMPAS X-Stream Receiver (aka cable box) lets you watch high-quality digital channels on your TV as and provides other CoMPAS X-Stream video features and services, such a channel guide with program information and on-screen support, Pay-Per-View and DVR.

A Digital Adapter (digital transport adapter or DTA) allows you to view high-quality digital channels on your TV, but doesn't provide most of the features or services of a CoMPAS X-Stream Receiver.

Where can I find the latest channel lineup?
