DIRECTV Connected Home

• Introduction

– With the launch of Connected Home Multi-Room-Viewing (MRV) product, new Fields and Order Line Items appear on the printed Work Order

– These changes are necessary to accommodate the programming and support hardware required to successfully install and activate the Connected Home MRV product

– This document explains the new Order components and provides a high-level look at the changes to the printed Work Order


• Prerequisites– This material is part of the Connected Home

Certification course and is intended for users who have successfully completed the Connected Home Installation course

Introduction

Connected Home Guiding Principles• There are five (5) guiding principles to follow when

activating and closing Activities with or without MRV Programming1. Receiver DECA

• Every SWiM MRV compatible receiver installed (excluding the H24 and HR24 receivers) must include a Receiver DECA

2. Education• During every SWiM installation, with MRV Programming or

No Programming, the technician must provide MRV product education

5


Guiding Principles

3. Broadband DECA• Every installation, with Internet, will include a Broadband

DECA OLI on the Order

4. Band Stop Filter• Every SWiM non-MRV compatible receiver installed must

include a Band Stop Filter (BSF) OLI on the Order

5. SWiM • Every MRV installation must be SWiM compatible


New Order Components• There are three new fields that display in the OLI Details

screen– Mode: Use this field to identify whether the customer ordered MRV

programming. The system displays either basic, programming or noprogramming

When the Mode field displays basic the customer did not order HD equipment. However, if the technician installs an H24 or HR24 IRD the system will require you to add the required MRV equipment to all other IRDs on the account.


• New Fields (Cont’d)– Compatibility: Use this new field to determine if the Account is MRV,

SWiM and MPEG4 compatible. The system displays:

• MRV: programming or noprogramming

• SWiM: True or blank

• MPEG-4: True or will not appear in non-MPEG-4 markets

The MPEG-4 value is for informational purposes letting you know the local channels are broadcast in high definition in the market area.


New Order Components• New Fields (Cont’d)

– Capability: A Capability field will populate on a printed Work Order with ATSC = True in Local-into- Local markets where the MPEG-4 local channels are not received via the 99 and 103.

• The Siebel system will auto-add an AM21 OLI to the Order upon activation of an IRD without a built-in tuner

Important Note: Upon activation of a receiver, the Siebel system auto-checks the receiver’s back-end Compatibility and Capability criteria and adds the required additional OLIs.


New Order Components• New Order Line Items (OLIs)

– Every SWiM MRV compatible receiver installed (without a built-in DECA), requires a Receiver DECA. Once an IRD is submitted and closed the Siebel system automatically determines if the receiver is MRV compatible or non-MRV compatible and adds the required RECEVER DECA to the Order.

• Note: H24 and HR24 IRDs have a built-in DECA. If you install one of these IRDs, a Receiver DECA OLI will not be added.

Receiver DECA



– For every MRV installation, with Internet, a Broadband DECA OLI displays on the Order. If the customer does not order Internet the new Broadband DECA OLI will not display.

• Note: The Broadband DECA displayed above will be available summer of 2010. If this device is not available in your area, install a Receiver DECA in its place with a power supply at the Router.

Broadband DECA

Requires a Power Supply



– For every IRD Standard or IRD DVR added to the Order, a Band Stop Filter (BSF) OLI displays.

– Once an IRD OLI is submitted and closed, the Siebel system determines if the receiver is SWiM and MRV compatible or non-MRV compatible and automatically deletes the unnecessary BSF OLIs depending on the Order scenario.

Escalation Procedures

• Order Modification Group (OMG)– As a field technician, you will call a DIRECTV specialty

group known as Order Modification Group or OMG (1-888-785-5520) to modify Residential Work Orders when necessary. Only call OMG when you are at the customer’s home, pre-activation, and the Work Order needs to be changed.

Escalation Procedures

• Dispatch– As a field technician you will call Dispatch to assist with

work order modifications. You should also call Dispatch to resolve failed order line item errors when activating Orders via your handheld device. Dispatch will create an Internal Service Request (ISR) to request assistance from one of the following groups:

• Work Order Integrity (WOI). An ISR is created for WOI assistance when a work order modification is needed “post activation,” such as line item add, delete, relocate, or an existing equipment swap from the order.

• Field Operations System Support (FOSS). An ISR is created for FOSS assistance to ensure all required failed line items on the order are successfully closed.
