Digital TV Broadcast Signal

The antenna is the most crucial factor in receiving a clear digital terrestrial TV
broadcast signal. The passive antenna provided should provide a clear signal when
placed beside a window. If the signal is not clear then you can purchase an active
antenna (it should also be placed beside a window) to improve the signal. You
should also check with any related government website which provides information
on digital terrestrial TV coverage for your area. Note that (unlike standard analog
TV) if the digital signal is weak then no picture will appear on the TV at all.

TV Recording and Power Plans

If you intend to use the optional TV Tuner to record live TV, then go to the Power
Options
control panel and create a power plan (see

“Power Plans” on page 3 - 4

)

to prevent the power saving options from adjusting the computer’s performance lev-
el.

Remote Control Unit

The remote control unit allows you to remotely start and send the system into a pow-
er saving state, to run Windows Media Center and to navigate the Media Center
menus etc. The remote control unit also gives full control over all TV and video
functions.



CATV Cable Safety

Make sure that your
CATV system installer
has connected the Co-
axial cable shield to the
grounding system of the
building, as close to the
point of cable entry as
practical.

This reminder is provid-
ed to call the CATV sys-
tem installer’s attention
to Article 820-93 of the
NEC (Section 54, Part I
of the Canadian Electri-
cal Code).
