Digital TV reception technology requires high quality, robust DTV signals which in some domestic aerial

installations, may be relatively poor despite good analogue reception.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To maintain optimum signal quality from TV aerial, use a

 

TV aerial splitter (as illustrated) when connecting two or

 

more equipments to the same aerial.

Pictures from an equipment are unusual when the equipment is

Actions

Electrical atmospheric interference caused by local or distant lighting storms or heavy rain with wind in "leafy" locations may cause pictures to break up and audio to mute or distort momentarily.

Impulse noise interference from an infrequently used electrical appliance, or a passing vehicle or lawn mower with a "noisy" ignition system.

Is the HDMI cable connected properly? (p. 34)

Turn Off the TV and equipment, then turn them On again.

Check an input signal from the equipment. (p. 39)

Use an equipment compliant with EIA/CEA-861/861B.

DVB

After DVB Auto Tuning only some or no DVB channels are found

Picture regularly breaks up on some channels, or

"No Signal" message

Check to ensure your area is covered by DVB transmissions. (www.dba.org.au/)

CheckDVB. that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for For your safety, the aerial and cable should be inspected

/ installed by a licenced installer that should comply with Australian Standard AS1417.1.

Note: If you live within 5-10 Km of DVB transmission towers, a combined VHF / UHF aerial should be adequate. Outside this area, separate VHF and UHF aerials provide superior reception performance.

If you live in a unit or apartment, check to ensure the Master Antenna TV (MATV) system is designed for analogue and DVB-T reception. Please consult your body corporate. (www.dba.org.au/)

Check "Signal Display". (p. 22)

If "Signal Quality" or "Signal Strength" are displayed in red or constantly changing, check aerial.

If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.

CheckDVB. that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for For your safety, the aerial and cable should be inspected

/installed by a licenced installer that should comply with Australian Standard AS1417.1.

Interference (known as impulse noise) from household appliances such as light switches, fridges etc may cause picture break up and / or audio distortion. Use high quality quad shielded coaxial cable fly lead between TV and antenna wall socket to minimise impulse noise pickup. If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.

When "No Signal" message is displayed check TV aerial connection.

The received signal may be too weak to allow the TV to reliably lock to the desired “No Signal” channel to generate a stable picture. Repeat the tuning procedure (p. 22). If problem persists consult your local TV aerial installer.
