simplified if you run the

as this will ensure
you enter all the essential parameters required.
Once the required settings are input and saved, you may alter
them at any time. Changes will be retained when the unit is
switched off or even if the mains power is removed, provided
they have been saved.
You must connect your television to the
OSD
output in order
for the on-screen information to be displayed.

The QSet menu enables you to set basic parameters of the
8000AP from the front panel without using a TV connection.

The QSet menu is intended for use when the 8000AP is
operational. The OSD set-up menus contain items absent in
the QSet menu and vice versa, so both menus should be

up possibilities featured in the 8000AP .
