Digital broadcast

Digital broadcasts cannot be received.

¾Digital broadcast may not have started in your region yet.

¾The aerial may not be pointing in the direction of the TV station, or the direction of the aerial may have changed due to strong winds or vibration. If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.

After DVB Auto Setup only some or no DVB channels are found.

¾Check to ensure your area is covered by DVB transmissions.

¾Check 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.

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. (> 8)

¾If 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.

Picture regularly breaks up on some channels. “No Signal” message is displayed.

¾Check “Signal Condition”. If “Signal Quality” or “Signal Strength” are displayed in red or constantly changing, check aerial. If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer. (> 60)

¾Check 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. (> 8)

¾Interference (known as impulse noise) from household appliances such as light switches, fridges etc. may cause picture break up and/or audio distortion. Use a high quality quad shielded coaxial cable fly lead between this unit and antenna wall socket to minimise impulse noise pickup. If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.

¾Check aerial connection.

¾Adjust the aerial reception with “DVB Manual Tuning” in the Setup menu. (> 59)

Picture very infrequently breaks up on some or all channels.

¾Electrical atmospheric interference caused by local or distant lighting storms or heavy rain with wind in “leafy” locations may cause pictures to break up and audio to mute or distort momentarily.

¾Impulse noise interference from an infrequently used electrical appliance, or a passing vehicle or lawn mower with a “noisy” ignition system.

VIERA Link

VIERA Link doesn’t work.

¾Check the HDMI cable connection. Check that “HDMI” is displayed on the front display when the power for the main unit is set to On.

¾Make sure that “VIERA Link” is set to “On”. (> 63)

¾Check the “HDAVI Control” settings on the connected device.

¾Some functions may not work if depending on the version of “HDAVI Control” of the connected equipment. This unit supports “HDAVI Control 4” functions.

¾If the connection for the equipment connected with HDMI was changed, or if there was a power failure or the plug was removed from the household mains socket, “HDAVI Control” may not work.

In this case, perform the following operations.

1When the HDMI cable is connected to all equipment with the power on, turn the TV (VIERA) on again.

2Change the TV (VIERA) settings for the “HDAVI Control” function to off, and then set to on again. (For more information, see the VIERA operating instructions.)

3Switch the VIERA input to HDMI connection with this unit, and after this unit’s screen is displayed check that “HDAVI Control” is working.

The operation on this unit (music playback etc.) is interrupted.

¾The operation on this unit may be interrupted when you press buttons on the TV remote control that do not work for VIERA Link functions.
