9. DVB-T Operation
9.1. Over Air Download
Over Air Download: To ensure that your digital receiver always has the most up to date information. Please ensure that after use it is set to its standby mode. The DVB-T automatically powers up at 3AM each day and searches for any new information which may be broadcast and will download this to your box automatically. This operation will normally take approximately 30 seconds.
If you have an important recording to make at 3AM which must not have a 30 second interrupt then you can disable the auto OAD search by performing the following:
1. Press Menu button and using the up / down buttons highlight SETTING and
press the SELECT button, using the up / down buttons highlight CONFIG and press the SELECT button.
2. Use the up and down buttons to highlight "RECEIVER UPGRADE" and press
SELECT button.
3. Using the left / right button change function from Enable to Disable.
4. Press SELECT button then MENU and MENU to return to Normal l operation.
Do not forget to re enable the automatic OAD function after you have made your recording by repeating the above instructions but this time selecting ENABLE.
9.2. Switching On
Turn on your TV set and select the SCART input (with the AV key, or similar, on the television remote control). Turn on the mains supply to the DVB-T receiver (the receiver's menu will be seen on the TV screen.)
If after connecting the DVB-T to your TV as shown and you do not see a picture, press AV button on your TV remote until you see the “First Time Install” screen.
If you do not see the receiver's menu on the television screen, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
9.3. Tuning In
Because this is the first time that the receiver has been used, there are no channels stored in the receiver's memory and the First Time Installation menu is displayed on the screen.

9. DVB-T Preparation 9. DVB-T Preparation 9. DVB-T Preparation
First you should select the type of TV set you have connected to the DVB-T receiver. Press the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys on the remote control handset to switch the indicator on the screen to show either 16:9, if you have a 16:9 or 'widescreen' TV, or to 4:3 if you have a standard TV set. Then press [SELECT] to start the installation process. The next menu will ask if you want to tune in the digital terrestrial television channels.
Using the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys on the remote control, make sure that the YES button is highlighted in yellow, and press the [SELECT] key to start the automatic search. The DVB-T receiver will automatically tune to the UHF transmission channels 21 to 68 looking for digital terrestrial TV broadcasts and displaying the names of channels found. This process will take about five minutes.
When the search is finished, the first channel of the channel list and the information banner is displayed you can now watch digital terrestrial television, selecting the channel you require as described in the next section.
HINT: Depending on the reception conditions in your particular area, you may find that the list of channels found includes one or more repeated names. This is because the receiver may detect and store some channels, including those it cannot receive clearly, from adjacent areas alongside the strong channels from a transmitter nearby. This is not a problem and the weaker channels can be deleted from the receiver later, as described in Section 11 – DVB-T Advanced Operation -Editing the channel list.
If no digital terrestrial television broadcasts are found the receiver will display a message:
Do You want to start automatic search?
Yes No
You should then refer to the Troubleshooter Guide in 14th CHAPTER to establish the cause of the problem.
When you have finished watching digital terrestrial TV, you may wish to switch the receiver to standby to save power - although the DVB-T receiver can remain powered up continuously, even when the television is turned off, without harm to the television or itself. The receiver is returned to standby by pressing the [STANDBY] key on the remote control handset.
Hint: In standby, the DVB-T receiver still consumes power and thereby contributes to air and water pollution and the exhaustion of the World's natural resources. Overnight or when your receiver is not going to be used for long periods of time, you can turn it off at the mains and this will save energy (and save you money). You will not have to re-install the receiver when it is turned on again.

10. DVB-T Everyday Operation
While using the DVB-T receiver to the full there are great many keys to use in different situations. Many of the menu screens displayed by the receiver have reminders as to which keys do what, at the base of the screen. In addition, many screens have further help available which is displayed when the [Info] key is pressed, as prompted at the bottom right of the screen.
Pressing the [SOURCE] key at any time while watching television programmes will select the receiver set between output the digital terrestrial television and VCR.
10.1. Changing Channels
You can select the channel you wish to watch in one of four ways - stepping through the channel list, selection by number, from the on-screen channel list, and using the electronic programme guide (EPG).
To move through the channel list, press the [P +] or [P -] keys on the remote control. Pressing the [P +] key will select the channel next in the channel list. Pressing the [P -] key will select the previous channel in the list.
Pressing the [P +] key when the last channel in the list is being viewed will select the first channel. Similarly, pressing the [P -] key when the first channel is displayed will select the last channel in the channel list.
You can also select the required channel using its channel list number. Channel numbers are entered using the number keys on the remote control handset and can be up to three digits long.
When you press a number key on there mote control, a small box appears in the top left of the screen to show the entered number. After each digit is entered, the receiver will wait up to two seconds for the next digit to be pressed until either three digits have been entered or you do not press a digit in time. The channel corresponding to the entered number in the box will then be selected.
The channel list numbers are assigned by the broadcasters. Because not all
Hint:
channels are broadcast free-to-air and stored by the receiver, the channel list numbers do not run continuously. The fifteenth channel in the list, for example, may not be channel number 15 but channel number 17.
Hint: If you enter a number which does not correspond to a stored channel, the next valid
channel number is selected instead. If you enter a number greater than the highest numbered channel in the channel list, the receiver will select the last channel in the list.
10.1.1. Information Banner
Whenever you change channel, using the [P +] and [P -] keys or the number keys, the receiver displays the channel picture along with an information banner at the bottom of the screen. This will remain on the screen for approximately three seconds. The information banner can also be displayed at any time while

10.3.1. Current Programme
The channels are listed at the bottom of the screen, each with the 'current event' (the name of the programme showing at that time) and the 'next event' (the following programme). When the EPG screen is first displayed, the channel last watched is highlighted in the list of channels. A quarter-screen image of this channel is displayed at the top right of the screen along with the channel name and channel list number.
If the channel you have been viewing is a digital teletext channel then no picture will

Details of the current programme on that channel (the name of the programme and, typically, a synopsis with details of the stars involved, the teams playing, or similar information)along with the start and finish times are displayed at the top left inside the dark blue text window.
Moving the highlight through the list of channels using the [UP] and [DOWN]keys will change the programme details in the text window to reflect the channel highlighted. The quarter-screen window continues to show the channel last watched, so you can stay watching a programme while at the same time browse the details of what’s on, on other channels.
You may then select the highlighted channel for viewing on the quarter-screen window by pressing the [SELECT] key.
You can leave the EPG screen, to enjoy normal full-screen viewing of the channel in the quarter-screen window by pressing the [GUIDE] key again, or the [MENU] key.

Hint: Not all channels broadcast all the programme information data. Some channels do
not provide the current and next event data and/or the programme details. In this case the programme names and/or the details are not displayed. This is not a fault with your receiver.
10.3.2. Next Programme
While the EPG screen is displayed, pressing the [RIGHT] key highlights, in dark blue, the next event name in the list of channels and displays the highlighted channel's programme details for the next event (the programme following the current programme) in the text window. As before, you can browse through the list, checking the programmes coming up next on all the channels.

10.5. Digital Teletext
Many digital terrestrial televisions channels not only broadcast pictures and sound for programmes but also pages of information on the programmes, the weather, news and many other topics. This digital teletext can be displayed by the DVB-T receiver.
Some channels are entirely given over to digital teletext and carry no normal TV programme at all. These dedicated digital teletext channels will not give a quarter­screen image in the EPG or the Channel List screen. When such a channel is selected, after a brief pause, they will usually display the opening page of information automatically.
Other channels have digital teletext pages broadcast alongside the television programme and often include a reduced-size broadcast picture within digital teletext pages. These usually require the [TEXT] button to be pressed to activate the digital teletext pages.
In both cases, moving through the different pages of information is accomplished in a variety of ways, dependent on the individual broadcasters, but including use of the[UP], [DOWN], [LEFT], [RIGHT] and[SELECT] keys to select items from on­screen menus, and the coloured keys to jump directly to particular pages.
You can exit any digital teletext channel by changing channel in any of the normal ways. You can leave the digital teletext function of a combined digital teletext/programme channel, to return to normal television viewing of that channel, by pressing the [TEXT] key.
Calling for the information banner or any menu on-screen stops the receiver from

10.6. Widescreen
TV sets are available with screens of the standard (4:3) format and widescreen (16:9) format. When you first installed your DVB-T receiver you specified the format of the connected TV (this can now be altered if necessary; see
DVB-T Advanced operation -
Digital terrestrial television broadcasts are also made in both standard and widescreen formats. In particular, films and dramas tend to be broadcast in widescreen format to closer emulate the cinema experience, but even some news bulletins are widescreen. To help get the most from both TV set and programme when a widescreen film is watched on a standard TV, or a standard broadcast is viewed on a widescreen set, the DVB-T receiver includes the [WIDE] key.
So long as the receiver has been correctly set up for the TV set connected, a widescreen programme will always be displayed correctly on a widescreen set, and a standard format programme will correctly fill the screen of a standard format TV. With a widescreen TV set displaying a standard format programme, the [WIDE] keys witches between displaying the picture with black bars down the sides, and enlarging the picture so that it fills the whole width of the screen but the top and bottom are cropped off.
With a standard format TV displaying a widescreen programme, the [WIDE] keys witches between displaying the picture with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, and filling the whole height of the screen but cropping the sides off according to instructions broadcast with the programme (called 'pan and scan').The effect of the [WIDE] key on the picture display is cancelled by pressing [WIDE] again, changing channel or turning the receiver to standby.

The Channel List screen displays the list of channels in the receiver's memory, with a quarter-screen image window showing the selected channel, and can be used to change channels for viewing, delete channels from the memory, edit the name of the channel as it appears in the list and on-screen, lock a channel against viewing by younger members of the family, and set up favourite channels.
Channel List functions are carried out on one channel at a time. The channel to be affected is first highlighted in the list using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys. You can move faster through the list using the [RED(PAGE UP)] or [GREEN(PAGE DOWN)] keys to move up or down a complete page of 10 channels in one jump.
11.2.1. Select
This function selects a channel for viewing and is an alternative to using the [P +] and [P -] keys, channel number or EPG. Highlight the channel to be viewed, highlight the SELECT button at the base of the screen using the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys and press [SELECT]. The highlighted channel now appears in the image window and you can leave the Channel List to view the channel by pressing [MENU].
11.2.2. Delete
The initial installation of the DVB-T receiver can produce duplicate entries in the channel list from transmitters operating at different frequencies in adjacent areas, and you may wish to delete these duplicate entries from the list.
46
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
In addition, other channels which you do not want in the list. Highlight the channel to be deleted, highlight the DELETE button at the base of the screen using the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys, and press [SELECT].The highlighted channel is deleted from the list.
You can now perform further editing on the channel list, or return to normal broadcast viewing by pressing the [MENU] key.
11.2.3. Edit Name
The channel names which appear in the channel list and the information banner are assigned by the broadcasters and some longer names are abbreviated to become unrecognisable. You can edit the names to suit your preferences with the Edit Name function.
Highlight the channel to be renamed, highlight the EDIT NAME button at the base of the screen using the [LEFT] or[RIGHT] keys, and press [SELECT].The highlighted channel name appears on the right of the screen with the first character highlighted by a cursor. Any of the 15 characters that make up a channel name can be highlighted using the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys and the highlighted character changed by pressing the [UP] or [DOWN] keys to cycle through the alphabet, numbers and other characters available.
You can also enter a channel name using the number keys on the remote control.
Hint:
Each key represents several letters and pressing a key several times will enter each letter (in both capitals and lower case), and the number, in turn, in the character position marked by the cursor. The zero key enters all the punctuation marks available and a blank space. With practise, this is a very quick means of entering the required letters into the channel name.
When the required changes have been made, pressing [SELECT] stores the new name and returns to the Channel List screen. Alternatively, pressing [MENU] will abandon the name change and return to the previous name.
You can now perform further editing on the channel list, or return to normal broadcast viewing by pressing the [MENU] key.
Using the other two functions of the Channel List menu screen - LOCK and FAVOURITES - is dealt with in the next sections.
11.3. Channel And Menu Protection
11.3.1. Channel Lock
Some channels broadcast material which you do not want younger members of the family to watch. Any channel can be 'locked' so that it cannot be selected for viewing without first a four-digit PIN code being entered. In this way any channel not suitable for younger viewers can be protected.
47
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
The channel lock is applied with the Channel List menu. Press the [MENU] key on there mote control handset to display the Main Menu and then, using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys on the remote control, make sure that the first item, Channel List, is highlighted in yellow and press the [SELECT] key.
Highlight the channel to be locked using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys. You can move through the list 10 channels in one jump using [RED(PAGE UP)] or [GREEN(PAGE DOWN)]. Now select the LOCK button at the base of the screen with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys and press [SELECT].
A window requesting the PIN code is displayed and the four-digit code should be entered using the number keys on the remote control, followed by the [SELECT] key. A lock icon is then displayed alongside the channel name in the channel list.
Hint:
The PIN is factory set to 0000. This code should be reset (as described below) to another sequence of numbers, known only to you, when you have finished setting up the receiver.
You can now leave the Channel List screen and return to normal TV viewing by pressing [MENU]. Any attempt to change channel to the locked channel will now display the same window requesting the PIN code and the channel will only be displayed on entry of the correct code. To remove the lock on a channel, repeat the same process as to lock the channel.
11.3.2. Menu Lock
Simply locking a channel will not deflect a determined would-be viewer. Re­installing the complete channel list, for example, will bypass the channel lock. However, the menu scan be locked out of use too, to prevent this.
Display the Main Menu by pressing the [MENU] key, highlight Configuration, and press [SELECT] to display the Configuration menu screen. Highlight the Parental Settings line of the menu (press [DOWN] five times) and press [SELECT] to display the Parental Settings menu (after the PIN code has been entered). Here the menu lock-out can beset and the PIN code changed.
With the Menu Lock line highlighted, use the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] to cycle the menu lock setting through Disabled, Main Menu and Installation. The Main Menu setting will lockout the complete menu system; the Installation Menu setting locks only the Installation menu (see the Disabled setting allows free access to any of the menus.
Section 11 – DVB-T Advanced operation -Re-installation); and
48
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
You must return to normal TV viewing by pressing the [MENU] key (three times) to activate the lock. Now any attempt to access the locked menus will display the PIN request window and the menus will only be displayed on entry of the correct PIN code.
The same Parental Settings menu is used to change the PIN code. With the Set Lock Key line highlighted, press [SELECT] to display the Set Lock Key window. This requests the new four-digit code to be entered twice (for confirmation) and the new code comes in effect when you return to the Configuration menu by pressing [MENU].
Hint:
If you want the channel and menu locks to work efficiently and actually protect channels from access, do change the PIN code from the factory default. Make sure that you choose a number that is not obvious to others but one that can be remembered by you.
11.4. Favourite Channels
There will be some channels that you tend to watch more often and some only occasionally. Although some duplicate channels you may want to delete from the channel list, others although not watched frequently, you will not want to do away with al together. The favourite mode allows the most-watched channels to accessed more easily, leaving the less-watched channels accessible but out of the way.
When the favourite mode is activated, the [P +] and [P -] keys cycle through the favourite channels only and the EPG will list the favourite channels only (other channels can still be accessed by channel list number or from the Channel List menu screen).Any channel can be a favourite channel and the Channel List menu is used to label those channels you want as favourites.
Display the Channel List menu screen by highlighting Channel List on the Main Menu and pressing [SELECT].
49
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
Use the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to highlight the FAVOURITE button at the base of the screen and then, in turn, highlight each channel that is required to be a favourite channel, using the [UP] and [DOWN] keys (and the [RED(PAGE UP)] or [GREEN(PAGE DOWN)] keys),and press [SELECT]. A channel selected as a favourite appears in the main channel list with a favourites icon against the channel name.
A channel can have its favourites status removed by repeating this procedure, to remove the icon. Leave the Channel List menu by pressing [MENU].
Once the required channels have been marked as favourite channels, the favourite mode can be activated to allow easy access to them. Press the [MENU] key to display the Main Menu, the [DOWN] key twice to highlight Configuration, and press [SELECT] to display the Configuration screen. Press the [DOWN] key four times to highlight the Favourite Mode line and using the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys change the setting from Off to On.
When you leave the Configuration menu by pressing [MENU] the favourite mode is activated. Now, changing channel using the [P +] or [P -] keys will switch to only those channels marked as favourites in the channel list. Similarly, the on-screen list in the electronic programme guide contains only the favourite channels.
You can still access all the channels in the channel list by keying in their channel list number or by selection from the Channel List screen. Alternatively you can switch off the favourite mode from the Favourite Mode line of the Configuration menu.
The favourite mode can only be activated if one or more channels in the channel list
Hint:
are marked as favourites. Similarly, if the favourite status is removed from all the channels in the Channel List, the favourite mode is turned off automatically.

11.5. Programme Reminders And Timers
With the greatly extended channel choice that digital terrestrial television brings, it is all too easy to miss a favourite programme. The DVB-T receiver has two facilities built in to help you make sure you catch all the TV shows you want.
11.5.1. Programme Reminders
Programme reminders can be set to signal that a programme is about to start when you are watching another channel. A reminder is set from the Electronic Programme Guide screen.
Press the [GUIDE] key to display the EPG screen and press [RIGHT] to display the next programme details in the text window and highlight the name of the next programme in the list of channels. Press [SELECT] when a programme you want to watch is highlighted and the reminder icon is displayed against that programme's name.
You can exit the EPG screen in the normal way - pressing [GUIDE], [MENU]. Later, shortly before the programme is due to start, the receiver will display a reminder on the screen over the picture of the channel being viewed.
Use the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to highlight the YES or NO buttons as appropriate and press [SELECT]. If you select the YES button, the receiver switches over to the reminder channel.
Reminder events are ignored if any timer event is active at that time.
Note:
11.5.2. Event Timer
You can also set a timer to switch the receiver to any channel without your intervention. This is intended for making video recordings of programmes when you are out. If a single programme is to be recorded, the receiver can be left switched to the required channel and the timer set on the VCR. However, if two or more programmes on different channels are to be recorded then the DVB-T receiver's own timer is set as well, to select the required channel when it is needed.
Display the Main Menu by pressing the [MENU] key and highlight and select the Timers line to display the Timer menu screen. Up to five separate timer events can be set and each is displayed in the Timer screen, showing the event number, the channel to be selected, the start time, end time, date and the mode - whether that event is active (and will be acted on) or not.
51
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
To set an event, Highlight its mode button using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys and press [SELECT] to display the timer entry window. Here the five settings of channel name, start time, end time; date and frequency mode can be set. You can move freely between each setting using the [UP] and [DOWN] keys. The channel name is set using the[LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to display the channel which broadcasts the programme to be recorded. The start time, end time and date are each set with the number keys on there mote control in 24-hour format. The frequency mode determines how often the receiver operates this event and is set with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to be either Once, Daily, or Weekly.
Hint: If an invalid number for the start or end times or the date is entered, the highest valid number is automatically entered in its place. So, entering 28:30 as the time will automatically change to 23:30, and a date of 15:14:2002 will change to15:12:2002.
Pressing [MENU] or [SELECT] returns to the Timer screen with the settings in place in the timer event list. The event mode is automatically set to Active and you can now return to normal viewing (press the [MENU] keys) and at the appointed time the receiver will switch over to the required channel and at the end of the event, switch the receiver to standby.
If you are watching digital terrestrial TV at the time the timer event starts, a message
Hint:
is flashed onto the screen announcing that the receiver is' Switching to timer channel' so you understand what is happening.
When the Timer screen is displayed, any event can be set to be Inactive (so it will not occur) or the channel, times and frequency mode altered by highlighting the event's Mode button and pressing [SELECT] as before.
52
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
You can exit the Timer screen and return to normal TV viewing by pressing [MENU].
11.6. Re-Installation
Although your DVB-T receiver will not lose its settings or stored channels when switched off, you may wish to re-install the receiver because you have moved to a different area with different broadcast frequencies, you wish to reinstate a channel previously deleted from the channel list, or you want to watch new channels which have started broadcasting.
Press the [MENU] key to display the Main Menu and using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys, highlight the Installation line and press [SELECT] to display the Installation Menu. You can either perform a First Time Installation, effectively resetting the receiver to it sex-factory condition, or just search for channels.
11.6.1. First Time Installation
To reset the receiver, highlight the First Time Installation line in the menu and press [SELECT]. A warning screen is displayed in case of accidental operation.
Highlight the YES button with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] key and press [SELECT] to erase all the channels and settings and switch the receiver to standby. You can now start again as detailed in Section 9 -DVB-T Preparation - Tuning In.
11.6.2. Add Channels
The DVB-T receiver can search for channels automatically (searching all the broadcast frequencies for free-to-air channels) or manually (searching one specified broadcast frequency only for any channels to be found there).
Press the [MENU] key to display the Main Menu and using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys, highlight the SETTINGS line and press [SELECT] to display the setting Menu, using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys to highlight the Installation line and press [SELECT] to display the Installation Menu. Highlight the AUTOMATIC SEARCH line and press [SELECT] . A warning message is displayed. This starts the automatic tuning process as described in Section 9 – DVB-T Preparation - Tuning In, and searches through all the available broadcast frequencies for free-to-air channels. Previous channels will be replaced on automatic search.
53
11. DVB-T Advanced operation
If, alternatively, from the search options menu the Manual Search line is highlighted and [SELECT] pressed, the manual search screen is displayed.
Highlight the YES button with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] key and press [SELECT] to start the automatic search.
This is for searching for digital channels on a single broadcast frequency. The frequency channel number (21-69) is entered in the box at the top left of the screen and the received signal level and signal quality can be observed on the two bar graphs at the bottom. When [SELECT] is pressed, the receiver searches that frequency and display a list of the channels found. Before returning to the Installation menu.
The bar graphs of signal quality and signal level give a good indication of whether
Hint:
any channels are likely to be found. If only the signal level graph shows a high value then it is likely that an analogue channel occupies that broadcast frequency. If the signal quality bar is high as well then it is a digital frequency and digital channels will probably be found.
Again, channels which duplicate those already in the channel list are ignored. However, the manual channel search will find all channels on the broadcast frequency/When either search is finished, press the [MENU] key to return to normal broadcast viewing, to watch the new digital terrestrial television channels found.

12. Safety
POWER The Micro system should be plugged into a 230V to 240V AC, 50Hz supply only.
LEADS
Ensure the power supply lead, and all other leads, are positioned so they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by things placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to the power lead, where it enters the mains plug and where it comes out of the receiver. Do not connect or adjust leads when the receiver is plugged in.
TEMPERATURE AND MOISTURE Do not leave or use the receiver in a hot, cold or humid area. Do not allow the receiver to get wet - from drips or splashes - as this may be dangerous. Do not place water-filled objects such as flower vases, on top of the receiver.
VENTILATION Slots and openings in the receiver's cover are for ventilation. Do not cover or block them as this could lead to overheating.
CLEANING Unplug the receiver before it is cleaned. Use a lightly dampened cloth only. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
HEAT AND FLAMES The receiver should not be placed near to naked flames or sources of intense heat, such as an electric fire. Ensure that no naked flames sources, such as lighted candles, are placed on top of the Receiver.
LIGHTNING
Unplug your receiver from the wall socket if there is a storm or lightning, or if it is to be unused for a long time.
REPLACEMENT PARTS If your receiver needs a replacement part, ensure the person undertaking the repair uses parts which are specified by the manufacturer or have the same specifications as the original part. Other parts may cause a fire, electric shock or other hazards.
BATTERY DISPOSAL Please ensure that exhausted batteries from the remote control handset are disposed of safely.
SERVICING
Ensure the person who services your Micro System is qualified to do so. Do not remove the cover yourself - you could get an electric shock. We are proud to offer a high-quality product. To keep this level of quality, your receiver should be serviced at a Goodmans authorised service centre.
