6 Setting up Antenna TV

In addition to the other entertainment possibilities of your Roku TV,
you may also want to watch broadcast channels from an antenna or
cable TV service connected to the ANT input. On your Roku TV, you
watch broadcast TV in much the same way you watch other
entertainment choices. You select a tile—in this case, the Antenna TV
tile—from the Home screen.
The first time you select the Antenna TV tile, you have to set up the
TV tuner. Setting up the TV tuner scans for active channels and adds
them to your Antenna TV channel list.

Why do I have to set up the TV tuner?

Not everyone needs to use the TV tuner. For example, you might have
a set top box provided by a cable or satellite company that receives
all of your channels. Most of these set top boxes use an HDMI
connection.
More and more people are watching only streaming TV and do not
have a TV antenna or cable/satellite service. If you don't need the TV
tuner, you can bypass setting it up and instead remove it from the
Home screen as explained in Remove unwanted tiles L p. 45.
When you set up Antenna TV, the TV scans the signals on its antenna
input for channels with a good signal, and adds those to the channel
list, skipping dead channels and channels with a very weak signal.
The TV lets you add two analog channels, even if they have no signal,
for the purpose of using an older set top box, VCR, or game console
that can only output a signal on analog channel 3 or 4. Typically, you'll
only need one of these channels, but both are provided to make
setup simpler. You can hide the one you don't want as explained in
Edit Antenna TV channel lineup L p. 46.

How do I set up the TV tuner?

1
Make sure your antenna (not provided) or TV cable is connected
to the TV's ANT/CABLE input.
2
On the Home screen, select the Antenna TV tile.
3
Read the simple on-screen instructions, and then select Start
finding channels.
4
If prompted, select your time zone. You'll only need to do this if
the TV can't figure out your time zone from your Internet
connection.
®
Why does the TV need my time zone?
The TV needs to know your time zone so that it can correctly
display time information about the program you are currently
watching.
5
When prompted, select whether to add analog channels 3 and 4.
These channels enable you to connect older set top boxes, VCRs,
or game consoles.
6
Wait while your TV scans for Antenna TV stations...
... and then cable TV channels.
