Channel and Program Tuning
Channel and program tuning in digitai television is very different from current
conventional television. In DTV, up to six (6) multiple programs can exist within a
single 6 MHz channel. These programs behave as subchannels within the single
channel. When tuning to a channel, the STB will also tune to a program. Your STB
will indicate the channel and program through the on-screen Channel Banner display.
Channel and Program Tuning
The STB allows channel and program selection in the following ways:
□ Direct Tuning ( 0 - 9 keys) - Tunes directly to a channel or program.
□ Channel Up/Down Tuning (A or ▼ buttons) - Tunes to the next or previous available
channel or program.
□ Next Program Tuning (PROG button) - Tunes to the next program within a single 6 MHz
channel.
n Rapid Tuning (R-TUNE button) - Switches between the last two remembered channels or
programs.
Next Program Tuning
The PROG button on the remote control allows you to select programs within a single
6 MHz channel. Each time the PROG button is pressed, the STB will move to the next
available program within the channel.
Note: Only programs within the current 6 MHz channel can be selected using the PROG
button. If only one (1) program appears, it indicates only one (1) program Is available.
Channel Tuning Using Certain Panasonic Televisions
Some Panasonic television models* will automatically switch between using the STB
or the TV to tune channels.
DTV
When the remote control is in DTV mode and either the 0 - 9 numeric keypad or the
Channel Up/Down (A or ▼ buttons) is used, the television will automatically switch to
DTV input. Channel tuning will be done through the STB.
