TURNING ON THE RECEIVER
When the receiver is in standby the
symbol on the front panel
is illuminated red. To turn it on, press the button on the remote
control or on the front panel of the receiver. The power symbol and
ring around it become illuminated blue when the receiver is on.
You can turn off the Plaza HDR•S, so it goes into standby, by
pressing the
button on the remote control or the
button
on the receiver. The Plaza HDR•S uses less power when in standby.
HINT:
The Plaza HDR•S receiver will automatically switch
to standby if it is not used for a long time. This feature can
be disabled – see the Advanced Use section of this guide.
CHANGING CHANNELS
Step through the channels by pressing the
buttons on
the remote control. Pressing the
button will select the next
channel in the channel list. Pressing the
button will select the
previous channel in the list.
If you know the channel’s number, you can switch directly to the
channel you want by using the number buttons on the remote
control. As you enter a channel number, each digit appears at
the top left of the screen to show the number button you have
pressed. All the Freesat channel numbers have three digits and
the first channel is 101. The radio stations are stored from channel
number 700.
Press the
button to switch from the channel you are currently
watching to the channel you were watching before.
HINT:
There are some channel numbers missing in the
channel list because spaces are left for future channels to
join Freesat.
HINT:
If you enter a number that does not exist, the
channel will not change.
HINT:
You should leave the Plaza HDR•S receiver plugged in
with the socket switched on, at all times (except when there
is lightning – see Appendix A). When you are not using the
receiver, put it in standby by pressing the
button on the
remote control or the
button on the front of the receiver.
