How to Set the Date and Time
There will be two oval buttons to the right of your
antenna’s display screen. The bottom button we will call
the “Mode” button and the top button is for adjusting the
number.
1.
First make sure the colon is blinking. Press the
Mode button once quickly. You’ll now see a single
digit on the left. This digit represents the Month. Set
it to the respective month by using the top button.
You cannot use the Mode button to make the
numbers decrease, you can only use the top
button to increase the numbers until they reset.
(Example: If the number were 3 and it was February, you would need to keep pressing the top button
until it becomes 10, 11, 12, 1, and then finally 2)
2.
Press the Mode button once more, and you will see a two-digit number to the right of the screen.
This is the day of month. Set it with the top button, and then press the Mode button once more.
3.
We now see a single digit to the left, a blinking colon, and then either the letter A or P. This stands
for either AM or PM. In order to change the hour you must press the top button until it reaches your
desired number.
4.
Press the Mode button once more to set the minutes. Once you have finished setting the minutes with
the top button, press the Mode button one last time to complete the setup. You should see the
complete time, and the colons should be blinking. If you hold down on the Mode button, you will
see the date you have set.
Additional Information
•
This antenna is a directional antenna, so it is important that you make sure to have the dish facing
whichever direction most of your broadcast towers are in
•
Tilting the dish upwards does not necessarily help you improve the signal of your antenna. If
anything, you may receive fewer channels that way.
•
If the dish on your unit is not rotating, it could be because you have it tilted too upwards. Try
resuming its original position, and then rotating it.
•
The rabbit ears on the unit work like your traditional rabbit ears, so you can extend, point, and
adjust them at will. However when turning the rabbit ears toward or away from you, we
recommend bending the ear downwards before swiveling. This will allow you to adjust the angle
at which you want it facing much easier. Only a light pressure is needed to adjust the ear. Be
careful.
If you have to exert force, you are bending it against its swivel point and may result
in damaging your antenna.
If you feel the absolute need to, you may also grease the swivel
point so that it will rotate easier.
•
If your antenna is mysteriously rotating, it could be that the remote for your television is
interfering with its signal, since they are both infrared. When adjusting your TV volume, try
pointing away from the antenna
•
Alternatively, if you somehow lose the antenna remote and wish to rotate your antenna you can
do so either manually or by pointing your TV remote at the red screen on the AX-912. On your
TV remote hold down either the volume or channel up/down button, and you should see the green
light come on, and the antenna rotate.
