Two lines of help text will appear in this area to explain the
feature and instruct the user on how to use it.
Check fewer boxes to make the search faster (but less
complete) and vice versa. A complete search takes about
50 minutes.
To add a channel that Channel Search didn't find, clear all
menus and tune to the channel with the number keys.

Tip
You can still add a channel that was not found
by Channel Search. Clear any on-screen menus,
and tune to it by using the number buttons on
the remote. If the channel can be tuned, it will be
added to the channel list for that tuner.
DVI Audio Input Allows you to select the audio input you’re using if you’ve connected an HDMI/
DVI cable adapter to the HDMI input. Select from the inputs listed. Go to page 17 for more
information.
Channel Setup Menu
The Channel Setup menu lets you fi nd, add, and delete channels, and set Parental
Controls. Items in the Channel Setup menu are: Lock TV/Unlock TV, Channel Search, Cable
Channel List, Antenna Ch. List, Video Input Setup, Advanced Settings, and Parental Controls.
Lock TV/Unlock TV, Cable Channel List, Antenna Ch. List, Video Input Setup, and Parental
Controls are explained in Chapter 3.
Tip
Signal Strength only shows antenna channels since
it’s for helping you adjust an antenna if you have
one connected to your TV.
Channel Search
Engaging in a channel search tells the TV to search for all the TV channels available
through the Antenna and Cable inputs. When the TV fi nds an active channel, it places it
in the channel list. Inactive channels (weak stations or channels with no signal at all) aren’t
placed in the channel list.
To do a full channel search, check each box that pertains to your TV. For example, if
you’re only receiving cable from the CABLE INPUT, highlight Cable Input and press OK
to place a check mark in the box. Select Start to begin the setup.
Notes: Channel Search with all options selected takes some time to complete because
all possible analog and digital channels are being searched.
If a cable box is connected to your TV’s CABLE INPUT or the CableCARD slot is in
use, don’t check the Cable Input box.

Auto Tuning Lets you specify the various devices you have connected to your

and turns the TV to the correct Video Input Channel (go to Chapter 3 for detailed
information).
