Topfield TF 5800 PVR DVR User Manual


 
1.5 Switching on for the first time 11
your television set is turned on and that the correct input or
channel has been selected, so that you will be able to see the
display from the PVR.
Now, press the Standby button on the front of the PVR or on
the remote control. As the PVR starts, the front panel display
will show first C4.56, followed by the word ‘run’. You will
need to perform some initial set up steps before you can start
using your TF 5800.
1.5.1 Searching for TV and radio channels
The first step in setting up your PVR is to search for the avail-
able TV and radio channels.
If there are no channels stored, you will not be able to access
other menu options. If you ever use the Factory Setting op-
tion in the menus to fully reset your PVR, you will have to
perform this procedure again.
When you turn on the PVR, it may automatically display the
Service Search screen. If not, press the Menu button on the
remote control, move to Installation with the arrow keys, then
press OK.
On the next screen, move to Installation, and press OK again.
Next select Service search and press OK.
On the next screen, move to Search Mode and ensure that the
Auto option is selected—you can change options by using the
left and right arrows.
All the system menus work in this way; in future, we’ll simply
explain which options to select; remember to move up and
down to highlight menu entries, left and right to change the
options, and OK to select or confirm.
Next, move down to Start search, and then press OK. The PVR
will start to search for channels, and will display a list of TV
and radio services as they are found.
