Use Auto Program in the Channel Setup menu to add receivable TV channels
that are not presently in memory (see page 54).
❏
In the password screen (see page 56), enter the following master password:
4357. The master password clears your previous password; it cannot be
used to temporarily unblock channels.
❏
Be sure you have not inadvertently switched your DTV from channel 3 or 4
setting if you are using another device to change channels.
❏
If you are using another device to control channels, be sure the "function"
button for that device has been pressed. For example, if you are using your
satellite receiver to control channels, be sure to press the SAT/CABLE button.
❏
Be sure the Video Input feature has not been set to Skip (see page 61).
❏
You have selected a text option in the Setup menu and no text is available.
(See page 60 to reset Setup selections.) To turn this feature off, select Off in
the Caption Vision option. If you were trying to get closed captioning,
select CC1 instead of Text 1-4 .
❏
Be sure your twin picture is set to a video source/channel that has a
program airing.
❏
You may be tuned to a video input with nothing connected to it. Try
cycling through your video inputs using the TV/VIDEO button.
❏
You can display digital channels in the left Twin View window, but not the
right. Pressing
tune to that digital channel.
❏
Both may be set to the same channel. Try changing channels in either the
main picture or the window picture.
❏
You may be running all your channels through a cable box. The cable box
will only unscramble one signal at a time, so you cannot use the Twin View
feature. If possible, run a direct cable to your DTV's CABLE input. (This
will only work if your cable system provides an unscrambled signal.)
❏
Be sure the Video Input feature has not been set to Skip (see page 61).
while the black box is active will exit Twin View and
