TheCABLE CHAN function lets you
program to which channel the TV
will automatically tune when you
press the SAT.CABLE button on the
remote. This !s handy if you want to
connect a satellite receiver or other
satellite receiver, or if your cable
company requires you to connect a
cable box to your TV. You will no
longer have to remember the output
channel of the RCA DSS® receiver or
cable box because the TV will
remember for you.
For example, if you connect a cable
box to the TV's CABLE/ANTENNA
connector (as shown on page 31),
you will no longer have to remember
to select channel 2, 3, or 4 on the TV
to see what's coming from the cable
• box. By entering the cable box's
output channel (usually 02, 03, or 04)
next to the CABLE CHAN function,
the TVwill automatically tune to that
channel each time you press the
SAT, CABLE button on the remote.
This function is especially convenient
if yonhave a remote-controllable
cable box that can be operated by the
SAT.CABLE button on the remote (as
described on page 33). Pressing the
SAT,CABLE button will then not only
switch the remote to cable mode but
will also automatically tune the TV to
the proper channel for viewing the
picture from the cable box.
