Data entry
After these settings or every time the switch is set off with the main
switch, the data must fi rst be collected (only for analogue TV). To do
this, select the programme which you have defi ned as a provider and
leave it switched on for about 1 hour or switch the set to standby. After
about 2 minutes the mode indicator on the TV set lights orange. The
data entry begins and lasts about 1 hour. The data are also automatically
collected between 2 and 5 in the morning when the TV is switched to
standby.
A prerequisite for data entry is that "Data capture" is "on (for DVB +
analog)" in the EPG menu.
Note: If the main plug is pulled out or the ON/OFF-button is pushed, all
EPG data are lost.
If you cannot receive any EPG providers, for example, you should switch
off the data entry.
Switch on TV when marked
You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the be-
ginning of the memorised programme. If you are not present at the time,
a safety prompt makes sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.
