Apparent “problems” that may be caused by certain menu settings
Problem
Reason
No audio
There is a menu to select a second soundtrack (SAP: secondary audio program). If this is selected, but no SAP is being
transmitted, there may be no audio.
The HDTV turns off
when you play the DVD
player or other attached
equipment.
If the HDTV is attached to the AC outlet on the set-top’s rear panel, it will be affected by a menu item called “AC
Outlet”. If this is set to “Switched”, then, when you turn off the set-top to play back from the DVD player, the attached
HDTV will also turn off.
The HDTV turns on
when you record on the
VCR.
If the HDTV is attached to the AC outlet on the set-top’s rear panel, it will be affected by a menu item called “AC
Outlet”. If this is set to “Switched”, then, when you turn on the set-top to record on the VCR, the attached HDTV will
also turn on.
RF-bypass occurs when
you turn off the set-top.
There may be a menu where you can set the RF-bypass feature to turn on automatically when you turn off the set-top
(although this menu may not be available). This feature should not cause a problem as it is still possible (by pressing
BYPASS) to turn on the RF-bypass when the set-top is on. These are the circumstances in which you could record one
channel from the set-top while you watch, on the TV, a different (analog) channel direct from the cable.
