4.4 Tuning into Digital free-to-air TV channels

You can tune your T-Box into local free-to-air TV channels using the automatic TV channels
search function.
Before you start the automatic tuning, make sure your T-Box is correctly connected to your TV
antenna. This is likely to be through a socket in the wall which connects to an external TV aerial.
Once connected, follow these instructions:
• S tart the automatic channels search, and your T-Box will detect the Digital free-to-air TV channels
available in your area.
• Wait until the automatic search has been completed.
• I f there are multiple versions of the same channel in your area, T-Box will only display the one with
the strongest signal.
• I f you are connected to the Internet through BigPond Broadband, the BigPond TV channels will
also be included automatically in the TV channel guide.
• C onfirm you have successfully completed the search, or start a new search if necessary.
Please note: Before you proceed with the installation of your T-Box, please ensure that your external
TV antenna provides good reception for digital television. For best results, you may have to change
or reposition your TV antenna.
Reception of high definition channels and programs is only possible in certain areas and only on
televisions that are labelled high definition such as HD Ready or Full HD and connected to your
T-Box by a HDMI cable. If you need more information, please ask for advice from your TV retailer,
manufacturer or installer.
