The data from the telephone exchange has become corrupted - the Easicom

TV1

is not faulty.

BT recommended that the Easicom

TV1

is connected to a TV via a scart. However, if you do not have a TV with a scart connection ability, Easicom

TV1

can be connected via a modulator, which will need to be purchased separately. Please call the BT Helpline on 08457 573464 for advice.

If this occurs on a frequent basis, contact your telephone Service Provider for assistance.
