• When you have locked TV channels while initiating autoprogram, a message appears asking to enter your PIN code in order to complete autoprogramming.

When interrupted, the updated channel information is retained as well as the not yet updated old channel information.

Background autoprogramming occurs only when the TV is turned on.

Channel information of an ATSC channel is updated only for the ATSC channel currently tuned.

If an NTSC channel is tuned, then in Background Autoprogramming the TV shall scan all the possible ATSC frequencies and update information.

Weak channel installation : This allows you to manually tune weak ATSC channels in order to adjust the antenna and thus optimize signal quality for that channel.

Once you have searched for the available Antenna as well as the Cable TV channels, they are stored in the memory.

Note: Digital Channel selection delay

Due to the tuning complexity of subchannel digital programming, the time to select and view a digital channel may take slightly longer than what the viewer is normally accustomed to (as compared to analog channel programs).

Digital channel broadcasts contain program and system data information that must be processed before the channel selection can be displayed.
