Using the Channel Browserª (continued)

Adding and clearing channels in the channel history

Adding channels to the channel history

The channel browser automatically creates a history of the last 32 channels that were tuned in the current input (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box inputs only). A separate history will be stored for each of these inputs.

If you change the input you are viewing:

a)you will begin a channel history for that input if one did not exist; or

b)you will return to the existing channel history for that input if one had already been started.

The channel browser will store the following channels:

¥All channels that are tuned using the numeric buttons on the remote control.

¥All channels that are tuned for at least 7 seconds using the CH yz buttons or the FAV CH y z buttons on the remote control.

Note:

¥The channel browser banner will not appear when the POP double window is open; however, channels tuned while the POP double window is open will be added to the channel browser history for the current input.

¥The channel browser banner will not appear in the FAV SCAN (favorite scan) multi-window. Channels that appear in the FAV SCAN multi-window will not be added to the channel browser history; however, channels that are tuned from the FAV SCAN multi-window for at least 7 seconds will be added to the channel history.

Clearing channels from the channel history

¥Turning off the TV will clear all three channel histories (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box).

¥Removing the CableCARDª will clear the channel history for the ANT 1 input.

¥Reconfiguring the ANT 1, ANT 2, or Cable Box input will clear the channel history for the newly configured input(s).

Note: See page 41 for details on configuring the antenna inputs.
