First time installation

After making the connections and switching everything 
on, follow the below instructions to get started.

1. 

The following screen will appear allowing you to 
select which aspect ratio best suits your viewing 
needs. Use the   /   navigation buttons to select 
an option and press the OK button to store and 
proceed.

As you select the options an on-screen diagram 
shows an example.

2. 

The set top box will then perform an automatic 
scan of the available channels.

If you encounter any problems when performing 
the scan. Power off all devices and check the aerial 
connection. If the problem is the aerial itself seek 
professional help.

3. 

When the scan has completed the set top box will 
begin playing the first channel in the stored list.

General usage

The following instructions refer to daily usage, such as 
changing channels, viewing programme schedules and 
basic operations.

Turning on the set top box

1. 

Press the   STANDBY button on the remote or the  
set top box to power the box on.

2. 

Press the   STANDBY button on the remote or the  
set top box to power the box off when powered 
on.

The set top box should be left plugged in and 
switched on at all times (except for during lightning 
storms). When the set top box is not in use press the 

 STANDBY button to enter standby mode.

By default the set top box is set to enter standby 
mode when not used for 3 hours. This can be 
adjusted in the ‘Advanced menu options ’ section.

Switching between TV and Radio

Press the 

 button to switch between TV & Radio  

modes.

Changing channels

1. 

Advance through the stored channels by pressing 
the CH+ or CH- buttons on the remote control.

2. 

If you know the channel number you can jump 
directly to that channel by entering the digits using 
the NUMERIC buttons on the remote control. 
 
EG:- channel ‘72’ would require you to press the ‘7’ 
and ‘2’ buttons, wait for a second and the channel 
will change to channel no ‘72’. 
If you enter a number that does not exist an ‘Invalid 
Entry’ warning will appear on the display.

You will note that in some cases there are gaps 
between the channel numbers in the list. This is to 
allow channels to be added at a later date.
