Adjusting the Settings

Note If you receive a message saying that the EPG activation has failed, choose Done. The ‘Setup Program Guide Service’ screen will appear again. In this case, consult ‘Tips and Troubleshooting’ on page 54.

If you have only one TV signal source, your RC9800i will now be ready to download program data from the Philips Internet EPG Service. See ‘Downloading EPG Data’ below. If you have multiple TV signal sources, you should first assign to each of these sources the lineup IDs that you defined when personalizing your subscription. See ‘Assigning Lineups to Devices’ on page 50.

Downloading EPG Data

Note Before you can start downloading EPG data you must activate the EPG on your RC9800i (see page 47) and, in the event of multiple TV signal sources, you must assign lineup IDs (see ‘Assigning Lineups to Devices’ on page 50).

Downloading EPG data is a completely automated process. You, as a user, need not do anything: the EPG data, stored on your RC9800i, is automatically updated over the Internet, every night between 1.00 AM and 7.00 AM.

Attention! Make sure that your RC9800i is within reach of your wireless network and that it is sufficiently charged. If battery power is too low, the RC9800i will postpone downloading of EPG data.
