Help setting up Tivo To Directv RCA box

[nocola]

Hi All I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I have a directv RCA box mod: drd420re. I was reading on the tivo site how to set up the box but I do NOT have a option that will let me select the Low Speed Data Port. Does that mean thats it's selected at all times? I don't know when the tivo is going to arrive but i want to get ready so all i have to do is just plug it in.
Thanks

Yes I read that but i Don't see the option on my box to set the home control cable option. I wanted to know what other people did with this type of box.

Just plug it in and de-select the IR blaster or if you havent the IR blaster just leave it as is

I have that receiver hooked up to my series 2 - works like a dream. When you go thru the portion of setup for channel changing, just select the serial option. If you have any problems, send me private email and we can chat.

I have directv. can only get my tivo to do one channel at a time recording. the spitter they gave me just has the directv searching for signal when i put the spitter on? has anyone had any luck with setting this up to get it to work correctly???
