2.Select the “Test channel select” button. Make sure that your tuner is on. Your ARCHOS device will then attempt to switch your tuner to the selected channel. After a few seconds, your ARCHOS will ask you if the device responded correctly:

If this worked, select “Yes”.

If this did not work, select “No, try next option”. Your device will try again to switch your tuner to the selected channel, using a different option*. Repeat this operation until it works.

*Here is a description of the different parameters automatically set by the ARCHOS:

-“Key Delay”: delay between the emission of each digit of a channel (“Short”, “Normal”, “Long”).

-“Key: Enter”: Set to “On” if normally, you have to press an “OK” button on your turner’s remote control

after you enter the channel number. Example: If you normally press 1, 3, “OK” to access channel 13, then this parameter is set to “On”.

-“Key: -/--”:Set to “On” if normally, you need to press a special key on your tuner’s remote control before entering a channel with several digit numbers (that is to say a channel greater than 9). This key is often represented with this symbol: -/--”.

-“Switches on with”: see below.

-“Time until video”: see below.

If the ARCHOS did not manage to switch your tuner to the selected channel, you can try using a different ON/OFF code (see: 1st Test: turning your tuner off) and do the 2nd test again.

3.After you selected “Yes” at the end of the 2nd step, the following screen appears. You will have to set these two parameters:

-Switches on with”: this depends on what key you normally press, on your tuner’s remote control, to turn it on. If you normally press the “Power” key, select “Power”. If you can press any channel key, then select “Any channel”. If you can press any key, select “Any key”.

-Time until video”: select the amount of time it normally takes between the moment you turn on your tuner, and the moment the image appears on your TV (“0...10 seconds”, “10...30 seconds”, “>30 seconds”).

4.When you have finished, select “Done”, and a confirmation message will appear.

Select “OK”.
