To maintain optimum signal quality from TV aerial, use a TV

aerial splitter (as illustrated) when connecting two or more

equipments to the same aerial.

DVB

After DVB Auto Tuning only some or no DVB services are found

Check to ensure your area is covered by DVB transmissions.

Check that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for DVB. For your safety, the aerial and cable should be inspected / installed by a licenced installer that should comply with Australian Standard AS1417.1.

Note: If you live within 5-10 Km of DVB transmission towers, a combined VHF / UHF aerial should be adequate. Outside this area, separate VHF and UHF aerials provide superior reception performance.

If you live in a unit or apartment, check to ensure the Master Antenna TV (MATV) system is designed for analogue and DVB-T reception. Please consult your body corporate.

Check that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for DVB. For your safety, the aerial and cable should be inspected / installed by a licenced installer that should comply with Australian Standard AS1417.1.

Interference (known as impulse noise) from household appliances such as light switches, fridges etc may cause picture break up and / or audio distortion. Use high quality quad shielded coaxial cable ßy lead between TV and antenna wall socket to

minimise impulse noise pickup. If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.

When “No Signal” message is displayed check TV aerial connection.

The received signal may be too weak to allow the TV to reliably lock to the desired “No Signal” programme to generate a stable picture. Repeat the tuning procedure (p. 31). If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.
