Things to try if something isn’t working.

No menus appear when the A or D button is pressed: Press the TV/GUEST button and try again.

Cannot change channels, adjust volume, or turn TV on or off: Check the Transmitter TV. It may still be in the Locked mode. If so, see page 29.

In Factory Test Menu (see page 30), “RCVR RESPONSE INVALID” message appears when polled: There are probably two or more Receiver TVs with the same ID (see page 22) and they are responding at the same time. You will have to find these TVs and change the IDs so that they are not the same.

In the Factory Test Menu (see page 30), a TV does not respond when polled: Make sure that TV is set in the Receive mode (see page 19).

• Also make sure it has been setup (see page 22).

Receiver TVs not changing when message sent from Transmitter TV: Make sure the RF cables are properly connected (see pages 6 - 9) inside both the Transmitter and Receiver TVs – get a proper installer to check this.

•Make sure the RF cables are connected snugly to the back of the TVs (see page 10 - 13).

“Snowy” message when Net1Card engaged: Make sure Net1Card menu and the TV's “SETUP MENU” (see page 20) are both set to either “CABLE YES” or “CABLE NO.”

Unable to operate the TV’s front keypad: Make sure the Front Keypad mode is “ON” in both the Net1Card menu (see page 20) and the TV’s “SETUP MENU” (see page 35).

Transmitting error messages appear on the Transmitter TV: While there can be more than one TV set up as a Transmitter TV, only one Transmitter TV at a time can transmit a message. Make sure only one Transmitter TV at a time sends a message.
