5.1.3.1.1 RASS
Your receiver is equipped with RASS (Receiver Automatic Sorting System).
Today, in the networks of the various cable operators, a large number of
television and radio channels in digital form can be received. When you
first install your receiver, RASS ensures that these big number of channels
are stored in the channel list on your receiver in a defined order.
Normally, during a channel scan incorrect data are not deleted (for example, no longer fed channels), and new channels usually added just "behind", so that you have to reprogram your channel list.

23
Basic Operation
With RASS the channel list will always be up to date, even if new channels
are added or if there are other changes.
5.1.3.1.2 RASS Works as Follows:
1. A RASS list is installed on the receiver already in the factory. This list is
processed during the initial installation after the search, i. e., the found
channels are stored in a predefined order.
2. Occasionally it happens that cable operators feed a new channel, or
remove any existing channels from their network. From this reason it is
important that the channel list is kept up to date. Therefore, your receiver checks each time that you turn off your receiver (in standby
mode), if there is a RASS update. If not, the receiver is completely
switched off after a certain time, then he goes into the power saving
mode (Deep Standby).
3. However, if the receiver determines that a new RASS-update is available, this will be loaded. Thereafter, the receiver will also turn off completely.
4. Next time you turn on the receiver, you will get a message: "RASS: It is
recommended to perform an automatic tuning". Then you have the
choice between

− If you select

, the receiver is started normally, no scanning is
done and the above message will even not appear during the next
turning on. You can always achieve a re-sorting of the channels
based on the current RASS list by starting manually a full scan.
5.1.3.2 Denmark, Sweden or Norway
If you select the countries Denmark, Sweden or Norway, Max NorDig, a
special kind of LCN will be used during creation and updating your channel list. LCN is an acronym for "Logical Channel Numbering", which
means that a channel list given by the cable TV provider can automatically
be loaded into the receiver (and therefore be updated at any time).
