Programming channels automatically
Your TV can automatically detect all active channels
in your area and store them in its memory. After the
channels are programmed automatically, you can
manually add or erase individual channels in the
channel memory.
Note:
• You must configure the ANT/CABLE input
source before programming channels (_. page
24).
• The automatic channel programming process
will erase channels that were previously
programmed into the TV's memory.
• To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in
the channel memory, you must use the
Channel Number buttons on the remote
control.
• Programming channels when the ANT/CABLE
input is configured for Cable will take
substantially longer than when the antenna
input is configured for Antenna. This is normal;
however, once channel programming is
finished, you should not have to repeat the
programming process again unless your Cable
TV service lineup changes significantly.
To program channels automatically:
1 Configure the antenna input source, if you have
not already done so (_ page 24).
2 Press M_u and open the Setup menu.
3 Highlight Installation and press @.
4 (A new set of Installation menu icons will appear,
as shown below.) Open the Terrestrial menu,
highlight Channel Program and press @ to bring
5
up the Start Scan,and press @ again to begin
channel programming.
The TV will automatically cycle through all the
antenna channels, and store all active channels in
the channel memory. While the TV is cycling
through the channels, the message "Scanning
channels, please wait..." appears (as shown
above).
To cancel channel pro_amming, press E_T on the
remote control (or highlight Cancel in the
onscreen display and press @).
When channel pro_amming is finished, press [_
or _ to view the programmed channels.
