Getting Started
• Switch on the TV set
• Select the AV channel location for your receiver connection
(only necessary on older TV sets)
• Now connect the receiver to the socket outlet
• Press the power-on button on the receiver
• Switch on the receiver with one of the number buttons
The following display appears (see screenshot at left):
Press the
button to view the signal strength and reception quality in
bar format (see second screenshot at left). This can help you to align the
antenna optimally prior to scanning. The scale value for the signal strength
and reception quality is also shown on the 7-segment display (toggle with
%
buttons). First use the
buttons to select a channel on which
you are already receiving a signal. Align the antenna to obtain the best
readings on the signal strength and reception bars.
The “
E
.” or “
F.
” on the 7-segment display indicates that the tuner has
locked on and a digital signal is being received - this enables you to tune
in an antenna when in an exposed location using just the 7-segment
display - that is, without using a TV set‘s on-screen display.
The channels can also be selected using the channel switching buttons
on the unit‘s front panel during antenna alignment. The current channel
number is displayed for about three seconds, then the readout switches
back to “
E
” or “
F
”.
Before using the receiver for the fi rst time, make sure that it has been
assembled, installed and connected properly, as described in the
“Connection and Setup” section and in accordance with the safety
instructions.
