VIEWING MODE
General Information
The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster
while watching TV or listening to radio channels from the cable
network.
Some of the functions described here can only be used if they
are included in the transmitted programme information.
If you select a programme to which you do not have access, you
will get a message on the screen.
While viewing, the current channel number will be shown on the
front panel display.
However, when you have changed into Radio mode (to listen to ra-
dio channels) the number will be preceded by the capital letter
A
;
and e.g.
A
123
will be shown in the display.
It is possible for the service provider to transmit other services
than TV channels only. For example it is possible to transmit
games via the cable net. In such a case the display will show the
capital letter
O
before the digits, and e.g.
O
456 will be shown.
If also analogue channels are transmitted in the cable network,
those channels will be preceded by the letter
P
.
Without affecting any settings, you can always return to watch
TV by pressing the
EXIT
button.
