4.2 IF YOUR TELEVISION AND VIDEO HAVE ONLY
A STANDARD COAXIAL AERIAL INPUT.
1. Unplug all equipment from the mains power before making connections.
Before starting the connection, check your current wiring as you can keep the coaxial aerial
connection in between your TV and video. This connection ensures you can still playback
your video and watch digital channels.
2. Connect your equipment according to the diagram above but do not connect your aerial to
the digital receiver at this stage.
3. Once connected, plug in your equipment. Switch on your TV first and select a spare channel
to be used when watching digital programmes, then switch on your video.
(It doesn't matter what channel number your video is on at this stage.)
4. Now switch on your digital receiver using the mains ON/OFF button on the front panel. The
front panel display will show - - : - -.
5. Press the
B (standby) button on your remote to wake up your digital receiver. Your receiver
will now be generating a welcome screen to give you something to look out for when you are
tuning your TV.
6. Tuning your television
You now need to manually tune the channel you have selected on your TV to watch digital
programmes. Please refer to your TV’s user guide if you need to check how to do this. When
the welcome screen appears on your TV, store that channel.
7. If you haven't managed to display the welcome screen at this stage, press the M button on
the front of the receiver. This will generate the main menu on-screen which you can then
look out for when tuning. Try manually tuning your TV again, this time looking for the main
menu.
8. Connect your aerial to the digital receiver and check that the picture remains steady
(no interference or snow).
