Using the ACI function

This TV has an ACI function which decodes the ACI
(automatic Channel Installation) data.
Using the ACI function allows all TV channels transmitted
from the cable TV station to be properly registered quickly
according to the data from the cable TV station.

If your cable TV station broadcasts ACI data and if
“ACI START/ACI SKIP” appears in the AUTO
PROGRAM menu, the ACI function is enabled. In all
other cases, it is disabled.

working properly. Press the a button to start the ACI
function again.
If “ACI ERROR” still appears even after you have tried
to start the ACI function several times, press the 3

not cause any problem because all the TV channels are
registered to the programme numbers (PR) by the AUTO

that you were reading before, and continue the
operation
When the “Initial settings” has been made:

If you have any questions about the items in the
Broadcast Selection menu or how to operate the
menu, please contact your cable TV station.
When the cable TV broadcast reception is poor, the
ACI function will not work properly.
If there is an error in the ACI data itself, the TV
channel cannot be registered properly. If this
happens, turn the ACI function off (ACI SKIP) and
use the AUTO PROGRAM function. Alternatively,
use the EDIT/MANUAL function to correct the
Programme number (PR) setting.
