There are several things to be aware of when the TV's searches
for channels.
If you chose Cable as your signal type, the search takes a while
because it's looking for analog and digital channels, and then it's
removing scrambled channels found. Here is what happens during the
search:
1.
The search fi rst looks for digital channels and places the number
of channels found next to
Digital Channels
found
. This number
will probably seem like a lot. This is because the number includes
both scrambled (for example, Pay Per View) and non-scrambled
channels. These channels are dependent upon what your cable
company is sending.
2.
The search then looks for analog channels and places the number
of channels found next to
Analog Channels
found
.
3.
The search might appear as if it is complete, but as long as the
search says
Running
, it is still in progress. What's happening at
this point is the TV is removing scrambled channels from the
channel list. When the search is fi nally complete, the
Channel
setup
menu will look like the picture to the left. To exit the menu
system, press CLEAR.
