Modes of operation

EPG mode

EPG is the electronic program guide for TV
programs. With this system, you can easily find
the stations that interest you (sorted according to
time, day, topics and programs). You can
memorize stations and station recordings.
A wizard is activated the first time you use EPG
(not with DVB) which guides you through the
necessary settings. Then run the data acquisition
(see page 15).
