Channel and Program Selection

Channel and program selection in digital television is very different from current conventional television. In DTV, multiple programs can exist within a single 7 MHz channel. These programs behave as sub-channels 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 Display.

The STB allows channel and program selection in the following ways:

Direct select (0-9 keys) - Directly selects a channel or program.

Program up/down select (PROGRAM+/PROGRAM- buttons) - Select the next or previous available channel or program.

Making use of Program List to select.
