Modes of operation
EPG mode
EPG is the electronic program guide for TV programs. With this system, you can easily find the stations that interest you (sorted according to time, day, topics and programs). You can memorize stations and station recordings.
A wizard is activated the first time you use EPG (not with DVB) which guides you through the necessary settings. Then run the data acquisition (see page 15).
