Digital Channel selection delay

Due to the tuning complexity of subchannel digital

programming, the time to select and view a digital

channel may take slightly longer than what the viewer

is normally accustomed to (as compared to analog

channel programs).

Digital channel broadcasts contain program and

system data information that must be processed

before the channel selection can be displayed.

Channel tuning

Available channels:

- Cable (analog NTSC or digital QAM): max. from  to 35

- Antenna (analog NTSC or digital ATSC): max. from 2 to 69

If a tuned channel is not yet in the master channel map, the TV will attempt

to tune the channel and it will be added to the map.

If the channel is not acquired, a message will appear that the channel is not

available.

When you tune an audio-only digital subchannel, a display appears with the

message

Audio only

.

Subchannel selections

The new standards employed with digital broadcasting make it possible to receive

multiple program channels under a single major channel number which can be

selected by pressing the digit remote control direct-access channel number entry.

Tip

:

After the installation of the TV channels has been done, always make a selection

in the Installation menu between Antenna or Cable whether you want to watch

Antenna TV channels or Cable TV channels.

If you make use of a signal splitter do not forget to put the switch in the

corresponding position.
