CableCARD™ Definition and Initial Screen Display

CableCARD Technology

CableCARD is a nationwide system standard that allows your local cable TV provider to supply you with an access card customized to your account. This card allows the TV to receive, decode and unscramble the premium digital channels included in your cable TV subscription, without the use of a cable box. It also allows your cable provider to automatically update and change your subscription. When you move to a new cable provider’s area, you simply return the CableCARD to the original cable provider and get a new card from your new cable provider.

Please note that CableCARD is a new technology and your local cable provider may not currently be offering this service. As time passes, this system will become broadly supported by most cable providers.

The CableCARD system is “unidirectional” which means your cable provider can send updates to the access card and TV, however, the TV cannot send back signals such as requests for Video-On-Demand or Pay- per-View request by remote control.

Digital cable channels authorized by the CableCARD will be available on the Firewire™ IEEE 1394 network and can be shared by other products on the network. Some digital channels or programs may not be copied or recorded because of copy restriction limits set by the content owners or copyright holders.

The digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic and digital premium cable television programming by direct connection to a cable system providing such programming. A security card (CableCARD) provided by your cable operator is required to view encrypted digital programming. Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services such as video-on-demand, a cable operator’s enhanced program guide and data-enhanced television services may require the use of a set-top box. For more information call your local cable operator.

Please see page 15 for instructions on how to insert the CableCARD.

Using a CableCARD

After inserting a CableCARD into the TV back panel CableCARD slot and powering On the TV, the initialization process begins. An initial screen will automatically display for a few minutes, with information that your Cable Provider will need in order to start service. Please write down this information before calling your cable provider.

Please call XYZ Cable at xxx-xxx-xxxx to activate cable service.

They will need these numbers:

Host ID X-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX

CableCARDTM ID: X-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX

See owner's manual for further information

An example of this type of screen is shown here. Your screen will display specific information from your cable provider and may not look exactly like this screen.

If you were unable to record the information, you can press TV MENU on the remote and then enter the number 999 and the screen will re-display. You can also press DEVICE MENU when the CableCARD is the selected source and you will be able to select the startup application.

IMPORTANT

To use a CableCARD, the primary incoming cable must be connected to ANT-1 MAIN.
