DTC-9.4: How do I restore factory settings?

[Amy R]

My dad was over and accidentally hit some button(s) on my husband's DTC-9.4, and now I don't know how to fix it.

I can't get a feed - the TiVo is working (I see the TiVo menus, and it is still recording shows), but the only thing on the TV is a black screen. I can watch shows previously recorded, DVDs, listen to CDs, etc., just fine.

The screen on the receiver reads "Video 1" "Direct" and "Analog". Any clue how I can either fix this or restore the factory settings?

I appreciate your help!

On page 93 of the instruction manual, it states:

To reset the surround mode and other settings to the factory
default settings, wait for more than 30 seconds after turning on
the power, then hold down the Video 1 button and press the
Standby/On button. “CLEAR” appears in the front display and
the DTC-9.4 enters the standby state.

Give that a try. Hopefully that will restore the relevant default settings which will return your DTC-9.4 to your expected operating state.

Good luck!
