cable TV boxes?

TV Guide On Screen

TM

system

setup?

Select “Change system settings” in “SETUP” in the Navigation menu of the TV Guide

On Screen

Please tell me about the
downloading of television program
list data.

Channel line-up data is transmitted continuously, 24 hours a day–7 days a week.

Program information that contains details about each program is usually transmitted

four times a day, and the cycles last approximately 3 hours. The TV Guide On Screen

TM

system only requires one transmission a day to maintain up-to-date program listings.
Because the unit must be turned off in order to receive new information, multiple
transmissions are conveniently scheduled early to mid-morning and early afternoon
hours.


Why doesn’t my favorite program
have more information in the
information window or expanded
information window?

The hardware that makes TV Guide On Screen

TM

system possible is a computer chip

which has limited storage space. Factors used in determining which programs display
detailed program information are the number of channels turned “ON” in the CHANNEL
EDITOR screen and the availability of the descriptions.
Setting channels that cannot be received to “OFF” in the CHANNEL EDITOR screen
may increase the amount of information displayed.

29

What kind of information might be
seen in the MESSAGES screen?

Useful Product Related Information (PRI) such as alerting the user to new features or

data available through the TV Guide On Screen

TM

system. This feature may not be

active in all viewing areas.

Can I record one channel while
watching another?

If you do not connect a cable TV box

Yes. Change the television’s input mode to “TV”.

If you connect a cable TV box

No. The user cannot watch one program and record another.

If I have a power failure, will I need to
reset the timer recording programs I
have already set?

In most cases the timer recording programs will be saved. However, if an extended

power failure occurs, it is strongly recommended that you verify the timer recording
programs that you had previously set. Press [PROG/CHECK] to display the SCHEDULE
screen.

I do not want TV Guide On Screen

TM

system to automatically appear on
screen.

Select “Off” in “Review options” menu, so that TV Guide On Screen

TM

system appears

only when you press [TV GUIDE].

29

I do not want to use TV Guide On
Screen

TM

system.

Set the unit with “Auto Channel Setting” in the SETUP menu. Note that you can set

timer recording only manually after you set the unit with “Auto Channel Setting”.

The router’s LAN port is
insufficient.

Commercially available devices can augment the connection port (hub). After

connecting the router and hub with a commercially available LAN cable the computer
and this unit should connect through the hub. Please read the hub’s operating
instructions for further information.

The screen temporarily freezes.

This may occur depending on computer and network efficiency. It is most likely when

using a wireless LAN so a LAN cable is recommended.
