13.1 OTA (Over the Air)

OTA, an abbreviation of Over–the-Air, is a standard for the transmission of software through a broadcast
system.
The manufacturers reserve the right to decide when and where an update is made available. The new
software version is then downloaded via cable. The software update via cable will only occur under the
following circumstances.
1. The equipment should have the appropriate loader software.
Caution: Please note that if the normal loader software is not equipped, the product may not be
updated or operate properly after software update.
2. The manufacturer transmits the software via cable. The new version of the software is generally
detected automatically, but in case it is not, you should perform automatic or manual update.
Caution:
• Please be careful to keep the power on and the power cord plugged in during software update. If the
power is o during software update, fatal damage may be caused to the product.
• Please be careful not to pull out the signal line (coaxial cable) during software update. Update may be
interrupted and the product may not operate.
Note:
• It may take 5~10 minutes to update software.
• Other functions will not activate while software update takes place.
• You cannot schedule programmes during software update.

1. Software update while watching a programme

When new software is detected, you can choose to download the software immediately or save for later. In
