7 Channel installation wizard To install channels you have to go to the [Professional Settings] [Install Channels]. In the menu you have a ton of options to change your channel installation. You can choose which mediums to use, to use Analogue vs Digital and so on. Below we will explain the configuration possibilities and how to install the channels. Note: Some screens will be shown depending on your settings or selections made, some screens will not be shown.
7.1 Configuration The first choice that needs to be made will be which medium’s need to be used during the channel search. A choice can be made to turn [On] or [Off] DVB-T, DVB-C and analogue channels before starting the search.
7.1.1 Analogue For analogue you can enable or disable the PAL and/or SECAM scan. When either one is turned [On] the channel search will include the package during the channel search.
7.1.2 DVB-T For DVB-T the only option to choose from would be to go for a [Quick] or for a [Full] scan of the spectrum. Choosing between [Quick] or [Full] will have an influence on the step size that is used for scanning for channels. [Quick] will scan every 8Mhz while [Full] will scan every 1Mhz. Of course leading to a longer installation time. 7.1.3 DVB-C The frequency scan can have three values as seen below. This will influence the length and the depth of the scan.
Depending on the broadcaster you can also immediately indicate the [Network Frequency], the [Network ID] and the [Symbol rate mode] 7.2 Digital Settings Besides the individual medium settings you can also find a [Common Digital settings] menu where it’s possible to change some additional items specifically for digital broadcasts. [Enable LCN Sorting] when turned [On] will provide a sorting algorithm for the channels as intended by the broadcaster.
7.4 Signal Testing Before installing channels or possibly for checking something it might be needed to check for a signal without the need for completely reinstalling all channels. With the below menu’s you have the ability to do so. Also upgrading the channel package can be done using this mechanism so that the TV doesn’t require a complete channel search. 7.4.1 Analogue It’s possible to search for channels without installing them.
7.5 Installing channels If you are looking for a complete install and not an addition to an existing channel list as explained in the previous paragraph then you can perform a [Channel Installation]. Before starting the full scan you can indicate to the TV which mediums need to be scanned. Remember that any of the settings in the previous discussed menu’s will come into effect when a medium is turned [On].
When [Update Channels] is pressed the TV will look for any changes in the RF network and will adapt the current channel list to reflect those changes. When [Re-Install Channels] is pressed the TV will ask you for all the necessary input such as Country and Broadcaster. Once all necessary questions have been answered the TV will remove any current channel list and will start creating a new one.
Choosing the broadcaster Starting the search 67 | P a g e
Searching channels Search completed After [Re-Install Channels] finishes successfully you will end up with a new channel list.
8 SmartInfo The SmartInfo feature can be used in two ways, as a picture slide show [Show] or as interactive pages [Browser].
