Software Updates
The T3 will automatically check for an update each night using its internet connection and
install one if it’s available. This can be disabled by turning ‘Automatic Updates’ to off. To
check for an update straight away, select ‘Check for Update Now’. If you can’t connect your
T3 to the internet, updates can be installed using a USB stick by following the instructions
on our website.
5V Antenna Power
Some antennas that are installed with a signal amplifier need a power supply from the
receiver or TV because they do not have their own. Turn this on to supply it with +5V DC.
Almost all normal aerial installations will not require this to be turned on. Only do so if
instructed by your aerial’s user guide or your installer.
PIN
During initial setup you will have created a PIN. This PIN is required to perform a factory
reset (see below), to delete channels and to manage protected channels (see page 17).
You can also lock the Settings menu with your PIN by turning on ‘PIN Protect Settings’.
Please note that the ‘Interactive PIN’ setting applies to legacy interactive services and not
apps like iPlayer – each app requires you to create a PIN within that app in order to protect
content.
Factory Reset
After entering your PIN, resets your T3•R back to its original factory settings. You can
choose whether to keep your existing recordings or erase them all. All settings, reminders,
favourites and channels will be lost. All browsing data will be cleared and you’ll be logged
out of all apps.
