55. Can I manually check for and update guide data?

If you put your ZapperBox into standby mode by pressing the red button on the remote, wait for a few seconds, and then turn it back on, it will check for and update guide data. Guide data for a small market is about 400 Kbytes, and for a large market like New York City is about 7.5 Mbytes. It takes about 5 to 10 minutes for new guide data to download and populate the grid guide.

Manually checking and updating guide data is useful if:

1. You logged into your subscription account and changed your zip code or device ID.
2. You connect your ZapperBox to the Internet only periodically to check for software updates and guide data.
