7 Useful tips
FAQ
| Question Answer | |
| My Remote Control does not work.What should I do? | Check the Antenna or Cable Connection to the Main Unit.Check the Batteries on the Remote Control.Re-insert or replace the AAA Batteries with their Polarities (+/-) as indicated on the Remote Control Battery area.Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and the Remote Control.Test the IR Signal Output use IR Signal Check. p. 35If okay, then possible Infrared Sensor trouble.Aim the Remote Control directly at the infrared sensor window on the front of the Unit.Reduce the distance to the Unit.When there is an infrared-equipped device such as PC near this Unit, it may interrupt the Remote Control signal on this Unit. Move the infrared-equipped device away from this Unit, change the angle of the Device's infrared sensor or Turn Off the infrared communication function. |
| How come the Initial Setupappears every time I Turn On this Unit? | Connect the RF Coaxial Cable directly to this Unit and run the Initial Setup.Make sure to complete the Initial Setup before the Unit goes into Standby mode. |
| Why can I not watch some RF signal TV Programs? | Autoprogram must be completed when you Set Up the Unit for the First time or Move it to a location where previously unavailable channels are broadcast.Make sure Autoprogram has been completed. p. 23The selected channel may not be broadcasting.When Autoprogram is interrupted and not completed, some channels will not be received. Make sure to complete the Autoprogram. p. 23The selected channel cannot be viewed by the Child and Ratings Lock setting. p. 26The Unit requires some kind of Antenna Input. An indoor Antenna (Digital or VHF / UHF), an External Antenna (Digital or VHF / UHF) or an RF Coaxial Cable from your wall Cable or Set-top Box needs to be plugged into the Unit. |
| How come there is no image from the Connected External Devices? | Check if the correct Input mode is selected by pressing SOURCE or using CH +/-. Refer to Watching Channels from an External Device. p. 17Check the Antenna, Cable or other Input Connection to the Unit.When using the Component Video Connection check that the Green (Y), Blue (Pb/Cb) and Red (Pr/Cr) connectors are connected to their corresponding colored jacks on the Unit. |
| When I enter a channel number, why does it change Automatically? | Many Digital channels have alternate channel numbers.
