Directing DVB-T antenna

Note: not with DVB-T stations in UK.
If you use a room antenna to receive one or more DVB-T stations that have
picture and sound interference, then you should change the location of
where the antenna is set up. To help you direct your antenna or to help
you determine the most suitable location to set up the antenna, your TV
set has a display for the signal quality C/N and the signal strength Level.
Consult your specialist dealer to find out which channels and frequency
bands (VHF or UHF) are used to broadcast the digital TV stations in your
area.On any one channel, several digital stations are broadcast.

5. For digital stations, select "Signal source – DVB-T".
6. Use the numerical buttons to specify the corresponding channel
number.
Depending on the channel selected and country, the system
automatically sets the corresponding bandwidth of 7 or 8 MHz. You
should only change the bandwidth under special circumstances - if the
channel raster in your area is different from the standard.
When you receive a digital station, the system displays the signal quality
C/N via a bar/numeric value and the signal strength via Level. The
antenna's direction or position is best when the largest values possible
are displayed (long bar) for the signal quality and signal strength.
7. Direct the antenna so that a maximum numerical value/bar size is
achieved.
8. If no signal is found in the channel set, you can start the frequency
search run by pressing the blue button within the band selected (VHF or
UHF).
9. Check the other channels one after another on which digital stations
are broadcast terrestrially in your area.
For the weakest station, direct the antenna so that the maximum
numerical value/bar size is achieved.
10. After you position or direct the antenna, we recommend to search
for all the stations using the "Search wizard" (TV menu – Settings –
Stations – Search wizard).

Daily operation

Switch on/off

Your TV is equipped with an eco-standby power supply unit. On standby,
the power consumption drops to low power. If you want to save even
more electricity, switch the set off with the mains switch. However, please
bear in mind that EPG data (electronic programme guide) will be lost and
programmed timer recordings will not be performed by the TV.
Switching off
If the TV set is switched on, you can switch it to standby
using the blue ON/OFF button on the remote control or
by using the indicator field on the set. The red lamp on
the TV set lights up. If the orange indicator lights up or if
both the green and red indicators light up, then, for Xelos
A 32/37, a timer recording is being made, EPG data is
being captured or radio operation without screen display
is active.
