The GUIDE Plus+ Setup
Preparation before the
GUIDE Plus+ setup
• Complete the connection of your equip-
ment (the Recorder, TV, aerial, external
tuner if applicable). See page 23 for basic
connection. Please note that if you use an
external receiver (such as Satellite tuner),
you have to connect the plug of G-LINK
cable to the back of the Recorder and
place the other end in front of the tuner.
This will allow you to control the tuner of the
receiver through the GUIDE Plus+ system.
• Complete the setup of the Recorder. For
the GUIDE Plus+ system it is necessary
that you have selected the display
language and country. Both values will be
transferred to the GUIDE Plus+ setup
screen. Also it is important that "AUTO
INSTALLATION" has been done to install all
available channels.
Without External Re-
ceiver
If you receive all your TV channel through a
standard (analogue) terrestrial aerial or
through cable without using an external
receiver, follow the procedure below.
1
Press GUIDE to display the
GUIDE Plus+ setup menu screen.
• Confirm the settings for "Language"
and "Country" and edit them if
necessary.

Press ' / " to select "Postal
Code". Press SET/ENTER, then

postal code. Leave the "External
Receiver" fields as is (to "None").
Then press GUIDE to exit the
setup menu.

Leave the Recorder in "STANDBY"
overnight to receive the TV
listings data.
• The GUIDE Plus+ system is automati-
cally "scanning" during a pre-defined
timeslot all your channels to identify
the correct host channel. Depending
on your region this may take up to 24
hours, because in some areas data is
only available during certain
timeslots.
• All other actions like "recording" or
"watching" have priority over the
"scanning (automatic receiving of
data)". Therefore it is important to
leave the Recorder in standby (not
"ON").
• All future downloads will happen
automatically.

channels according to what you
receive in your home.
NOTE
• Make sure that the setting for your Host
Channel is always "On", and the correct
source (the internal tuner of the Recorder
or an external tuner such as CATV top box
or Terrestrial Digital tuner) and programme
number are displayed on the "Editor"
screen (Page 56). Otherwise you will not be
able to receive data.
With External Receiver
If you have a digital terrestrial tuner, a
cable box (analogue or digital) or satellite
receiver (analogue or digital) in your home,
follow the procedure below.
1
Make sure that you have con-
nected the plug of the G-LINK
cable to the Recorder and place
the other end in front of the
external receiver through the
GUIDE Plus+ system (Page 23).
• This will allow you to control the tuner
of the receiver through the GUIDE
Plus+ system.
NOTE
• The G-LINK transmitter must be connected
and placed in front of your external receiver
so that its infrared detector can receive a
clear signal. To find the infrared detector in
your receiver you can either use its remote
control and move it slowly from left to right
in front of it while pressing any channel
button. If you can see a red blinking light or
the receiver switched to the respective
channel you have located the infrared
detector. Or you use a flash light and look
behind the glass screen of the box. The
infrared detector looks like a small red light
bulb.
