If you have connected your box to your TV (and VCR) via RF leads only, you need to tune
a ‘channel for satellite TV’ (see below).
RF Tuning
If you have connected up your equipment via RF leads, you may need to perform RF tuning
before you can watch digital satellite TV.
Note
If you have previously had an analogue satellite receiver connected to your TV (and/or VCR), you may
find that your ‘channel for satellite TV’ still works for your new digital channels. Try it to see - if it
works you do not need to perform RF tuning.
RF tuning your TV (and VCR) to your box
1. Make sure your box is out of standby (the standby light on the front panel should be
green).
2. Consulting your TV’s user guide if necessary, tune the TV until you can see a channel,
or the ‘Searching for Listings’ message on your TV screen.
3. Store your new ‘channel for digital satellite TV’ on a TV channel number of your
choice. For example, if your terrestrial channels are channels 1 to 5, and your ‘VCR
channel’ is channel 8, you may wish to use TV channel 9 as your ‘channel for digital
satellite TV’.
4. If you have a VCR, set your TV to its ‘VCR channel’, then tune your VCR until you can
again see a channel, or the ‘Searching for Listings’ message on your TV screen.
If you cannot RF tune your TV (or VCR) to your box...
Your box’s factory preset RF
output
channel is channel 38. (This is not the same as a TV
channel.)
If channel 38 is not compatible with your TV, for example if it is already being used as your
VCR’s output channel, or for a terrestrial channel, you may find you cannot tune your TV
to your box because of interference.
Changing the RF output channel is covered in the setup section (see page 28).
RF channels may also be known as
UHF
channels.
Switching on and off
Whenever you are not using your box you should put it into standby. You should not
unplug it at the mains socket.
