The Watch Device Selection Mechanism
The Watch Feature and SmartSurfer only function if you apply correct settings in EPG and in RC. You have to set the Watch Device selection mechanism in the EPG settings. The Watch Device selection mechanism determines how the TV switches channels. A TV can use, for example, a 10+ button, or an Enter button to switch channels.
1 Tap and hold the View Control button to display the EPG settings. The EPG page turns to its flipside.
2 Select the Settings tab.
3 Select your type of Watch Device selection mechanism:
■ ‘2 digits’ Select this option if, to switch your device to channel 15 for example, you need to press 1 – 5.
■ ‘3 digits’ Select this option if, to switch your device to channel 15 for example, you need to press 0 – 1 – 5. ■ ‘4 digits’ Select this option if, to switch your device to channel 15 for example, you need to press
0 – 0 – 1 – 5.
4 You can check the Use Start command check box if you want the iPronto to send out a ‘Start’ macro before it switches channels.
You can define your own ‘Start’ macro with iProntoEdit. You can find more information about iProntoEdit in the Help
Menu of iProntoEdit.
5 Check the Use Enter command check box if, to go to a certain channel, you need to press Enter after pressing 2, 3 or 4 digits.
6 Check whether the Watch Device is functioning correctly on the iPronto RC. The iPronto EPG reuses the RC’s IR codes. If the Watch Device in the ICF of the RC does not function properly, you should “learn” the correct IR code for the relevant button or attach the correct IR code with iProntoEdit.
See Learning IR Codes on page 38 and Using iProntoEdit on page 41.
