Philips DTX6372 user manual Adding NEW Channels, Manufacturer Data, Auto Update

MANUFACTURER DATA

This option shows various information about your digital receiver, such as it’s manufacturer and the versions of hardware and software that it contains. This is another screen that will be used by the ONdigital customer service people.

AUTO UPDATE

The final option on this menu can update the software used in your digital receiver. This may update certain menus or functions of your digital receiver, as well as add new features, but the general way in which it operates will not change.

Normally, this type of update will be broadcast to your receiver like any normal programme. The receiver will detect the broadcast and update itself the next time it is switched on. Whilst this is happening you may notice certain messages on the LED display on the front of the receiver.

These messages and their meanings are described below.

On other occasions, you may be asked to start this update process by a member of the ONdigital customer services team. Before the update starts, a message will be displayed to ask if you want to go ahead as it may change some of the personal settings you have made on your receiver, such as locked or favourite channels.

FRONT PANEL MESSAGES

The front panel display can also indicate the status of your digital receiver during an auto update.

Messages include:

Auto update – this is indicating that your digital receiver is searching for an updated version of software and then updating your receiver.

Update error – this will indicate that the software your receiver is currently using is in fact the most up to date version.

Retrying update – this message may be seen when a newer version of software has been located, but the receiver is having difficulty updating. In this instance, the auto update message will be seen again as the receiver continues the update process.

Out of order – this indicates that your receiver has tried to update the software it currently uses, but has been unsuccessful. It maybe necessary to contact your retailer, but if you are in any doubt, call ONdigital customer services on 0870 600 9696.
