TVTV EPG and Timer

Important Additional Information

If a satellite scan is carried out or programmes supported by

the EPG are moved around the programme list, the

change is only visible in the EPG following an update. To update, the receiver must be switched to standby mode

( appears on the display). As soon as it disappears

from the display the EPG is updated.

The button does not become active until 15-20 seconds after the picture appears on the TV.

The EPG‘ update is only started if no timer recording is programmed within the next hour.

The EPG is broadcast over the ASTRA satellite at the frequency of 12,603.75 MHz, with a symbol rate of 22 MSymb/s and horizontal polarisation (18 V). If you have accidentally deleted the transponder at this frequency, you will need to start a new satellite and transponder scan for the ASTRA satellite (see “Satellite Search”).

If a factory reset is performed, the information contained in the EPG is also deleted. To restore the data required for

the EPG, you must run a satellite scan and then switch

the receiver to standby mode to update the EPG data.

As soon as the disappears from the receiver display

the EPG is updated.

Digital-compatible single-cable solutions, such as “Technisat

DisiCon 4 LNB”, do not permit transmission of the EPG data, because the necessary transponder (12,603.75 MHz, symbol rate 22 MSymb/s, horizontal) is not transmitted in that

system. This transponder must not be deleted, as the EPG data is transmitted on it.

The EPG data is buffered on the hard disk, meaning the hard disk is running even during normal SAT reception. Its running noise is much less than in recording or playback mode however. In addition, the hard disk emits a short noise every 10 minutes indicating an essential data balancing operation. This is quite normal, and does not need to concern you.

At present it is only possible to scroll forward from the

“Current” (Now playing) views in the EPG in 15-minute blocks; it is not yet possible to access days ahead by a quick and easy route.

To do so, press the button to access the “Highlights” view and use the arrow buttons to select the daily highlight tip displayed on the date you are looking for. You can now press

the button again to switch to the “Current” view and you will then see the data for the day you want.
