Selection of provider/station
In case of analog TV programs, you can change the provider (the station which transmits EPG data) to have other programs evaluated. You can do this under ”Select provider/channel”.
Select ”Select provider/channel” and call this menu with OK. If the station you want to change to is not listed in the “Select provider“ list, start the provider search with the green button. This takes a while.
Or, if you know the station, press the yellow button for “Change provider list“. Select the provider in the program list and enter it with OK and return to the provider selection with END.
Select the provider in the “Select provider“ and enter with OK. Then a program range search is performed. The programs offered by the provider are displayed in a list.
If you want certain programs to be omitted from the program guide, you can select and deactivate these in the Program selection. Call the pro- gram selection with the blue button. Now all programs are displayed (the DVB programs too). Programs marked by E are analog terrestrial/cable pro- grams, programs marked by D are digital programs ready for the program guide. Select the programs you want to omit from the program guide one after another and deactivate each one with OK.
Data entry
After these settings or every time the switch is set off with the mains switch, the data must first be collected (only for analog TV). To do this, select the program which you have defined as a provider and leave it switched on for about 1 hour or switch the set to standby. The indicator on the TV set lights orange after about 2 minutes. The data entry begins and lasts about 1 hour. The data are also automatically collected between 2 and 5 in the morning when the TV is switched to standby.
A prerequisite for data entry is that “Data capture“ is “on“ in the EPG menu.
Note: If the TV set is switched off with the mains switch or the plug is pulled out, all EPG data are lost.
If you cannot receive any EPG providers, for example, you should switch off the data entry.
Switch on TV when marked
You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the begin- ning of the memorized program. If you are not present at the time, a safety prompt makes sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.
