Scan for RF Channels
This option enables you to select up to two tuners at a time and initiate a scan for all available
off air RF channels.
Note:
If multiple tuners are connected to one antenna, you do not need to run separate RF
scans on each.
Note:
If the system is set for RF 64-QAM output, up to four tuners can be used at a time. Make
sure the tuners to be scanned have been mapped to streams (see “Configure Tuner/Output
Assignments” on page 46); otherwise, the RF scan(s) will not find any channels.
1. At the
Setup Command >
prompt, type
scan
and press
Enter
.
The system will prompt for confirmation, for example:
A channel scan takes several minutes to complete.
During that time, the scanning tuner(s) will not stream normally.
