Seng up Antenna TV
Despite all of the entertainment possibilies of your Roku TV, you may also want to watch broadcast TV. You watch
broadcast TV in much the same way you watch other entertainment choices. You select a le—the Antenna TV le—
from the Home screen.
The rst me you select the Antenna TV le, you have to set up the TV tuner. Seng up the TV tuner scans for acve
channels and adds them to your broadcast TV channel list.
Why do I have to set up the TV tuner?
You might be asking, “Why is this step necessary?” Good queson.
Not everyone needs to use the TV tuner. For example, you might have a set top box provided by a cable or satellite
company that receives all of your channels. Most of these set top boxes use an HDMI
®
connecon.
More and more people are watching only streaming TV and do not have a TV antenna or cable/satellite service. If you
don’t need the TV tuner, you can bypass seng it up and instead remove it from the Home screen as explained in
Remove unwanted les” on page 47 .
When you set up Antenna TV, the TV scans the signals on its antenna input for channels with a good signal, and adds
those to the channel list, skipping dead channels and channels with a very weak signal.
The TV will, however, let you add two analog channels, even if they have no signal. You might need to add these
channels if you have an older set top box, VCR, or game console that can only output a signal on analog channel 3 or
4. These are the only channels that can be added regardless of whether they have a good signal. Typically, you’ll only
need one of these channels, but both are provided to make setup simpler. You can hide the one you don’t want as
explained in “Edit broadcast TV channel lineup” on page 46 .
How do I set up the TV tuner?
Seng up the TV tuner is easy—your TV does most of the work. You just have to answer a couple of quesons.
1. Make sure your antenna (sold separately) or TV cable is connected to the TV’s ANT/CABLE input.
2. On the Home screen, select the Antenna TV le.
3. Read the simple on-screen instrucons and select Start setup.
