3. Now you can use the component buttons (VCR1, VCR2, or DVD) on the
remote control to tune to the correct input channel when you press the button.
For example, if you’ve programmed your remote control and completed the above
steps to auto tune, you can press the VCR1 button and the TV will turn on and tune
to the correct channel automatically. Since the remote is in VCR mode (you pressed
the VCR1 button), you can use the REVERSE, PLAY, FORWARD, RECORD, STOP,
and PAUSE buttons to operate your VCR.
Channel Search
Engaging in a channel search tells the TV to search for all the terrestrial TV
channels available through the antenna inputs. When the TV finds 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.
The Channel Search screen lets you choose a Full Search or a Quick Search.
Full Search: searches both Antenna A and B, automatically detects whether you are
using cable or an off-air antenna.
Note: a Full Search can take up to 30 minutes.
Quick Search: searches only for channels on the antenna you’re currently using and
uses the current Air or Cable setting. For optimum reception, you need to conduct a
Quick Search after you’ve adjusted a terrestrial antenna.
Running Channel Search collects all
available TV channels in a channel list.
Tips:
You can also edit the TV channel
list and remove unwanted
channels by using the Profiles
menu.
Another way to add TV channels
is to directly tune to them using
the digit buttons on the remote
control. If the system can obtain
that channel’s signal, it will be
added to the channel list.
