INFORMATION

If “AUTO CLOCK” is set to “ON” ( pg. 20), the clock will be adjusted automatically by the host channel every hour (except 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) using the incoming PBS channel clock setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the unit is turned off. The clock will be adjusted just on these hours — on the time displayed on the front display panel, not on the actual real time.) The default setting of “AUTO CLOCK” is “ON”. ( pg. 20)

If the memory backup fails, because a power outage occurs or because the AC power cord is unplugged, Plug & Play will be performed when power is restored to the unit.

What to do if Plug & Play setting failed

If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform “Semiauto Clock Set” ( pg. 20) or “Manual Clock Set” ( pg. 20).

If “– –:– –” appears on the front display panel, your antenna cable may not be connected to the unit or there may not be a Host PBS signal available in your area. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. Then turn on and off the unit; the Plug & Play setting will be automatically reactivated. If Plug & Play setting is not performed though the antenna cable is connected correctly, perform “Manual Clock Set” ( pg. 20) and “Auto Channel Set” ( pg. 21) or “Manual Channel Set” ( pg. 21).

Plug&Play Completed

The current time is displayed.

If an incorrect clock time or “– –:– –” appears on the front display panel, see “What to do if Plug & Play setting failed” ( pg. 18).
