Digital TV
Before requesting service or assistance, please follow these simple guides to
solve the problem.
If the problem still persists, please contact your local Panasonic dealer for
assistance.
Connecting devices such as DTV recorder / PVR / VCR, etc. that also require
an antenna connection to the digital television
●
To maintain optimum antenna signal quality, use an ‘F’ type TV signal
splitter when connecting two or more devices to the same antenna socket.
Hint: Some degradation of the DTV signal may occur if you are connecting
the aerial through an external device (e.g. DVD Recorder or Set Top Box).
In this case it is better to use a splitter and connect the aerial directly to both
devices.
After digital TV tuning, (or re-tuning) some or all DTV channels are missing
●
Check to ensure your area is covered by DTV transmissions.
●
Check that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for DTV reception.
If you live within 5-10 km of DTV transmission towers, a combined VHF
/ UHF Digital TV aerial should be adequate. Outside this area, separate
VHF and UHF aerials provide superior reception performance.
●
If you live in a unit or apartment, check to ensure the Master Antenna
TV (MATV) system is designed for analogue and DTV reception. Please
consult your body corporate.
Picture infrequently pixelates on some or all channels
●
Electrical interference caused by local or distant lighting storms, heavy
rain, high wind, etc. may cause picture to break up and / or audio to mute /
distort momentarily.
●
Impulse noise interference from an infrequently used electrical appliance,
or a passing vehicle or lawn mower with a “noisy” ignition system.
●
Older style antenna cabling, loose fitting/corroded wall socket connections
/ terminals, etc.
