Daily operation, Directing DVB-T antenna

First installation

Directing DVB-T antenna

Note: not with DVB-T stations in UK.

If you use a room antenna to receive one or more DVB-T stations that have picture and sound interference, then you should change the location of where the antenna is set up. To help you direct your antenna or to help you determine the most suitable location to set up the antenna, your TV set has a display for the signal quality C/N and the signal strength Level. Consult your specialist dealer to find out which channels and frequency bands (VHF or UHF) are used to broadcast the digital TV stations in your area.On any one channel, several digital stations are broadcast.

Select a TV channel

1.	Call the “TV menu“ via the MENU button.
2.	Use	to select “Settings“, then use to select the menu line
	underneath.
3.	Select “Stations“, then use to select the menu line underneath.

5.For digital stations, select “Signal source – DVB-T“.

6.Use the numerical buttons to specify the corresponding channel number.

Depending on the channel selected and country, the system automatically sets the corresponding bandwidth of 7 or 8 MHz. You should only change the bandwidth under special circumstances - if the channel raster in your area is different from the standard.

When you receive a digital station, the system displays the signal quality C/N via a bar/numeric value and the signal strength via Level. The antenna‘s direction or position is best when the largest values possible are displayed (long bar) for the signal quality and signal strength.

7.Direct the antenna so that a maximum numerical value/bar size is achieved.

8.If no signal is found in the channel set, you can start the frequency search run by pressing the blue button within the band selected (VHF or UHF).

9.Check the other channels one after another on which digital stations are broadcast terrestrially in your area.

For the weakest station, direct the antenna so that the maximum numerical value/bar size is achieved.

10.After you position or direct the antenna, we recommend to search for all the stations using the “Search wizard“ (TV menu – Settings – Stations – Search wizard).
