Preset mode: In preset mode, the Up and Down buttons step up or down through presets that have been saved.

NOTE: Using the front panel, SIS commands, the Windows-based control software, the HTML pages, or the IR Remote Control, you can recall presets in tune

mode and preset mode.

To switch between tune and preset modes:

1.From the Output Configuration menu, press Next repeatedly until the LCD screen displays Tuner Mode.

2.Rotate either Adjustment knob to select Tune or Preset.

Selecting a channel

To tune to a channel, the AVT 200HD must be in tune mode.

You can tune using either of the following methods:

Press the Up or Down button to tune to the desired channel. The current channel number is displayed in the LED display and on one of the default cycle screens.

Press and hold the Up or Down button to cycle rapidly through the channel numbers. When the highest channel number available is reached, the display restarts numbering at the lowest channel number.

If the AVT 200HD is in preset mode, you can tune only to a preset channel. To change preset channels, press the Up or Down button to display the numbers of the programmed presets in ascending or descending order in the LED and LCD displays.

If you rerun a channel scan and any different channels are found on the second scan, the channel and preset lists are updated automatically to add new detected channels or remove channels that are no longer available. (To scan for channels, the AVT must be in tune mode.)

If the signal for a channel becomes too weak to be detected, the video output screen displays a “No Signal” message.

Saving presets (Not available via the front panel)

The AVT 200HD allows 198 programmable presets: 99 for over-the-air and 99 for cable. You cannot save a preset using the front panel menu system; you can only recall one. You can save a preset using the following methods:

SIS commands (see the Presets commands in the Command/Response

Table for AVT 200HD SIS Commands, located in the “Remote Configuration and Control” section)

The AVT 200HD Remote Control (see “Using the AVT 200HD IR Remote Control,” later in this section)

The Tuner Settings web page (see “Saving a preset” in the “HTML

Configuration and Control” section)

The Windows-based configuration and control software (see the program help)

Only channels that have been found by a channel scan can be saved as presets (see “Scanning for channels,” earlier in this section).

When a preset is saved, the system gives it the default name “Presetnn,” where nn is the preset number (for example, Preset01). You can change this name using the four methods listed above. A preset can have up to 10 characters.

You can also overwrite a preset and save a different channel to its number by using one of the four methods listed above.
