CHANNEL TUNING SET UP

In addition to normal broadcast reception of VHF and UHF channels, if you are a Cable TV subscriber, your new VE500A is capable of receiving many unscrambled Cable channels without the use of a converter box. When set to Broadcast TV it receives CH2-CH69. When set to one of the CATV modes (STD, HRC, or IRC) it receives CH1-CH125. Follow this simple procedure to make channel tuning more convenient.

1.Use the TV/CATV button on the Remote Control to select the broadcast system appropriate for your home. The system selected will be displayed on the screen. If you have an external roof mounted or rabbit ear antenna, select “TV,” if you have CABLE TV, select either “STD”, “HRC” or IRC (“STD” is used by the majority of Cable Systems. Check with your cable system operator).

2.Press the AUTO MEMORY button on the Remote Control Unit or the TV. You will see the TV cycle through all channels. The built-in Microprocessor will automatically store each channel that is actively broadcasting in your area.

3.To view only strong clear channels, press the SKIP/SEARCH button on the Remote Control Unit until “SKIP MODE ON” is displayed on the bottom of the screen. The TV will now tune only to strong, active channels, when the UP or DOWN buttons are used on the monitor or remote control.

To view a weak or marginal channel, press the SKIP/SEARCH button on the Remote Control Unit until “SKIP MODE OFF” is displayed on the bottom of the screen. Tune to the desired channel using the CHANNEL UP/DOWN button or go directly to the channel by direct access using the 0-9 buttons on the Remote Control.

4.To ERASE a channel, press the ERASE/WRITE button on the Remote Control Unit until “MANUAL MEMORY XX ERASE” is displayed on screen. To STORE a channel, press the button until “MANUAL MEMORY XX ADD” is displayed on screen.
