to select a channel to
edit, and turn “ON” or “OFF” the
channels according to what you
receive in your home.
NOTE
• Make sure that the setting for your Host
Channel is always “On”, and the correct
source (the internal tuner of the Recorder
or an external tuner such as CATV top box
or Terrestrial Digital tuner) and programme
number are displayed on the “Editor”
screen (Page
56
). Otherwise you will not be
able to receive data.
With an External
Receiver
If you have a digital terrestrial tuner, a
cable box (analogue or digital) or satellite
receiver (analogue or digital) in your home,
follow the procedure below.
1
Make sure that you have con-
nected the plug of the G-LINK
cable to the Recorder and place
the other end in front of the
external receiver through the
GUIDE Plus+ system (Page
23
).
• This will allow you to control the tuner
of the receiver through the GUIDE
Plus+ system.
NOTE
• The G-LINK transmitter must be connected
and placed in front of your external receiver
so that its infrared detector can receive a
clear signal. To find the infrared detector in
your receiver, refer to the manufacturer or
operation manual of your external receiver.
Alternatively you can use the receivers
remote control and move it slowly from left
to right in front of the receiver while
pressing any channel button. If you can
see a red blinking light or the receiver
switched to the respective channel you
have located the infrared detector. Or you
use a flash light and look behind the glass
screen of the box. The infrared detector
looks like a small red light bulb.
For more details, refer to the manufacturer
or operation manual of your external
receiver.
• Complete the connection of your equip-
ment (the Recorder, TV, aerial, external
tuner if applicable). See page
23
for basic
connection. Please note that if you use an
external receiver (such as Satellite tuner),
you have to connect the plug of G-LINK
cable to the back of the Recorder and
place the other end in front of the tuner.
This will allow you to control the tuner of the
receiver through the GUIDE Plus+ system.
• Complete the setup of the Recorder. It is
important that “AUTO INSTALLATION” has
been done to install all available channels.

Leave the Recorder in
“STANDBY” overnight to receive
the TV listings data.
• The GUIDE Plus+ system is automati-
cally “scanning” all your channels to
identify the correct host channel
during a pre-defined timeslot.
Depending on your region this may
take up to 24 hours, because in some
areas data is only available during
certain timeslots.
• All other actions like “recording” or
“watching” have priority over the
“scanning (automatic receiving of
data)”. Therefore it is important to
leave the Recorder in standby (not
“ON”).
• All future downloads will happen
automatically.
