Extra information

❖ Using the av button
You may wish to connect more items of equipment to your television
than your television has connectors to support (for example, your
FOXTEL PDR, plus a VCR, DVD player and/or games console). In this
circumstance your FOXTEL PDR can act as a switcher allowing the
television connector used by your FOXTEL PDR to be shared with
another item of equipment. This item is referred to as the 'loop-
through unit' as it is connected to the back of your FOXTEL PDR
rather than directly to the television. Usually this is the VCR.
If you have a 'loop-through unit', you use the av button on your
FOXTEL remote control to switch between your FOXTEL PDR and
the loop-through unit.
1. To switch to a looped-through item of equipment, press av on
your FOXTEL remote control.
Once you have pressed av, all the buttons on the FOXTEL Digital
remote control will be out of use, except FOXTEL and the FOXTEL
Digital Guide buttons - tv guide, box office, active and planner.
2. To return to FOXTEL, press FOXTEL (or any of the FOXTEL
Digital Guide buttons).
Notes
If you want to use the 'loop-through' facility, your TV must be
connected to the TV SCART connector on your FOXTEL PDR, while
the loop-through unit (VCR for example) must be connected to the
VCR SCART connector on your FOXTEL PDR.
If you are using your FOXTEL PDR to record a digital programme,
using 'loop-through' does not affect this. The recording will continue
even if you use your video recorder to watch a video on your TV.
If your setup does not include a looped-through item, then when you
press av on your FOXTEL remote control, your television will display
a blank screen. To return to FOXTEL, press FOXTEL.
If your FOXTEL PDR is not responding to the FOXTEL remote
control, it may be because the av button on your remote has been
pressed. To return to FOXTEL, press FOXTEL.
❖ Looking after your FOXTEL Smartcard
✘ Do not remove and re-insert your FOXTEL Smartcard
unnecessarily.
✘ Do not bend your FOXTEL Smartcard.
✘ Do not put your FOXTEL Smartcard in liquids or use cleaning
fluids on it.
✔ Keep your FOXTEL Smartcard away from children and pets.
✔ Always use your FOXTEL Smartcard in your FOXTEL PDR. It
will not work in any other FOXTEL PDR.
