Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy
your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home.
Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing
trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they
are not always supported on the proper TV stands.
Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio
speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,
causing unnecessary injury.
Toshiba Cares!
The consumer electronics industry
is committed to making home
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
The Consumer Electronics
Association formed the Home
Entertainment Support Safety
Committee, comprised of TV and
consumer electronics furniture
manufacturers, to advocate
children’s safety and educate
consumers and their families about
television safety.
Tune Into Safety
One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate
furniture large enough to support the weight of your
TV (and other electronic components).
Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure
your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly
into the TV).
Carefully read and understand the other enclosed
instructions for proper use of this product.
Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture
and TVs.
Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR,
remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.
Remember that children can become excited while watching
a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of
home with your family and friends. Thank you!

24) Always operate this equipment from
a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source only.
30) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air
temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is
first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This
can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear
faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to
allow the condensation to evaporate.
25) Always make sure the antenna system is properly
grounded to provide adequate protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges (see Section 810 of the
National Electric Code).
26)DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH!
• Use extreme care to make sure you are never in
a position where your body (or any item you are in contact
with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally
touch overhead power lines. Never locate the antenna
near overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.
• Never attempt to install any of the following during
lightning activity:
a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home
theater component connected to an antenna or phone
system.
31) For added protection of your TV from lightning and power
surges, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the
antenna from the TV if you leave the TV unattended or
unused for long periods of time.
32) During normal use, the TV may make
occasional snapping or popping
sounds. This is normal, especially
when the unit is being turned on or
off. If these sounds become frequent
or continuous, unplug the power cord
and contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.
33) Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Tube: If a fixed
(non-moving) pattern remains on the TV screen for long
periods of time, the image can become permanently
engrained in the picture tube and cause subtle but
permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOTCOVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV
on for long periods of time while it is displaying the
following formats or images:
• Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock tickers,
video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.
• Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For
example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a
normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of
screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a
widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right
sides of screen).
Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
27) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and
as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear
dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if
sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV
off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove
the source of reflections while viewing the TV.
28) Always unplug the TV before

Important Safety Precautions for Split Cabinet Feature
(Models 57H93 and 65H93 only)
Toshiba TV models 57H93 and 65H93 have a split cabinet
feature that allows disassembly of the cabinet into two
sections during installation.
For details, please refer to the insert titled “Disassembly/
Reassembly Instructions for Split Cabinet Feature” that
accompanied this owner’s manual in the accessory pack.
If you do not have the insert, you can download a copy of
it from our Web site (www.toshiba.com/tacp in the U.S.A.
or www.toshiba.ca in Canada). If you do not have access
to the Internet, call 1-800-631-3811 in the U.S.A. or 1-800268-3404 in Canada.
WARNING: If you split the cabinet for any
purpose, NEVER energize the bottom section
until it is completely and properly installed.
Energizing the disassembled bottom section and
subjecting it to intentional misuse (for example, exposing it to
a foreign object) creates the potential for an electrical shock
hazard that could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION: If you use the split cabinet feature, ALWAYS
handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet, which
contains a glass mirror, with great care. If subjected to
excessive mechanical abuse (for example, if bumped or
dropped), the mirror may break, creating exposed glass
fragments with sharp edges. Contact with these glass
fragments may result in injury.
Installation, Care, and Service
CAUTION: The split cabinet feature (models 57H93 and
65H93 only) allows disassembly of the cabinet into two
sections during installation. If you use the split cabinet
feature, follow these precautions while the two sections of
the TV cabinet are disassembled:
1) Always handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet
(with the viewing screen), which contains a glass mirror,
with great care. If subjected to excessive mechanical
abuse (for example, if bumped or dropped), the mirror
may break, creating exposed glass fragments with sharp
edges. Contact with these glass fragments may result in
injury.
2) Never temporarily locate the disassembled bottom section
in an area where it may be exposed to foreign objects or
abuse (for example, areas where children may be playing,
where items may fall on top of the unit, or where liquids
may spill into the unit). Failure to follow this instruction
may result in damage to the optic components of the TV.
SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE
TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.
3) Always keep the top and bottom sections of the TV
cabinet in an upright position while disassembled. Failure
to follow this instruction may result in damage to the TV,
including but not limited to the optic components, cabinet,
bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.
4) Never energize the bottom section of the TV cabinet
while disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in death or serious injury.
5) Never place anything on top of the bottom section of the
TV cabinet. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
damage to the optic components. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.
6) Never store or transport the unit while it is disassembled.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to
the TV, including but not limited to the optic components,
cabinet, bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Overview of cable types
Note: Two dual-blaster IR blaster cables are included with your TV. These IR blaster cables have
specific characteristics that allow them to work with this TV’s IR OUT and G-LINK ports. Other
aftermarket IR blaster cables may not function correctly and could cause damage. SUCH
DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR TOSHIBA WARRANTY because it is a result of misuse.
All other required cables, if not provided with your other devices, can be purchased at many
electronics accessory suppliers.
●
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service,
and/or cable converter box to the ANT-1 and/or ANT-2 RF inputs on your TV.
●
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use
with video devices with standard audio and standard (composite) video output. These
cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use:
yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.
●
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables
are required for a complete connection.
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable.
If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or
the picture performance will be unacceptable.
●
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use with video devices with
component video output. These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue.
(ColorStream
required for a complete connection.
Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite)
video or S-video cable.
●
DVI-D digital single-link cable is for use with video devices with uncompressed
DVI-D digital single-link output. DVI-D cable delivers digital video in its native
format (see page 18). Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.
Note: DVI-D digital single-link cable provides better picture performance than a standard
(composite) video or S-video cable.
●
IEEE-1394 cable is for use with video devices with compressed digital video output
that meets CEA specifications for IEEE-1394 (also known as Firewire
cables carry both video and audio information; therefore, no separate audio cables are
needed for a complete connection. See pages 22 and 24.
Note: IEEE-1394 cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video
or S-video cable.
●
Dual-wand IR blaster cable is for use with video devices with IR (infrared) remote
control. Two dual-wand IR blaster cables are included with your TV. One is for
connection to the G-LINK jack (page 25) to enable TV Guide On Screen™ device
control and one-touch recording. The other can be used with the TV’s IR passthrough features (page 21) and TheaterNet on-screen device control feature (page 45).
●
Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulsecode modulation) optical audio input to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack.
See pages 10 and 19.
●
For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard (composite) video cable.
●
For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video, use an S-video cable
instead of a standard (composite) video cable.
●
For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video (ColorStream),
DVI, or IEEE-1394 (Firewire) ouput, use component video cables, a DVI-D cable, or
an IEEE-1394 cable, respectively.
For a complete connection, be sure to also connect the audio cables, where necessary,

DVI/HDCP and I EE E-1394 connections, it
may not operate with another device you
have that includes such a connection. For
example, the IEEE-1394 ports are not
intended to operate with current model
Mini DV camcorders, and the DVI/HDCP
input is not intended for connection to a
computer. Copyright protection requirements
may also prohibit or limit connectivity. See
page 18 for details about the DVI/HDCP
input. See pages 22–24 for details about the
IEEE-1394 ports. You should confirm that the
devices you want to use with the TV will
operate with the appropriate connections.
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your TV in several different configurations. The suggested connection
illustrations in this manual are representative of typical device connections only. The input/output jacks on your devices may differ
from those illustrated herein. For details about connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each device’s owner’s manual.

Connecting a VCR to the REC OUT jacks
If you connect an ATSC antenna or digital Cable service to ANT 1 or
ANT 2, or a digital device to one of the IEEE-1394 ports, you can use
the REC OUT jacks to record down-converted programs to an analog
VCR.
Note:
• The REC OUT jacks only output down-converted signals from an ATSC,
digital Cable, or IEEE-1394 source in an analog signal format.
• For the best possible audio/video performance, when using an ATSC, digital
Cable, or IEEE-1394 source, it is recommended that you use the REC OUT
jacks (instead of A/V OUT or VAR AUDIO OUT) to connect to an external
A/V system.
• This connection cannot be used for timed recordings.
• Because of copy protection requirements, the R EC OUT jacks may be blocked
during playback of some IEEE-1394 content.
• See “Using the digital tuner hold” on page 61.
You will need:

to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared
remote-controlled devices (such as a Toshiba infrared
remote-controlled VCR or DVD player or an IEEE-1394
device) enclosed within an entertainment center or similar
cabinet. Without the IR OUT connection, the device typically
would need to be visible to operate it remotely.
You will need:
one dual-wand IR blaster cable (included with your TV)
other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s)
to the TV (see pages 12–20)
To connect the IR blaster cable:
1. Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device.
This sensor is marked on some devices.*
3. Align one of the IR blaster cable’s wands about 1 inch away
from the infrared sensor on the front of the device and
attach it using the enclosed mounting tape. If you have a
second device, attach the second wand in a similar manner.
(See illustration at right.)
Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second wand
with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.
4. Plug the IR blaster cable’s plug into the TV’s IR OUT jack.
To control the device(s):
Point the TV remote control
(programmed to operate the device;
see pages 47–49) or the device’s
remote control at the front of the TV
and press the button for the desired
function. The signal passes from the
remote control through the TV to
the device via the IR blaster cable.
Note:
• If you use the device’s remote control
to operate the device, you also will
need to use the TV’s remote control to
operate the TV.
• For additional control options, see
“TheaterNet on-screen device control”
at right.
*
If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:
1. Turn OFF the device.
2. Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place the end of the
device’s remote control (with the infrared emitter) so it touches the
front of the device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV’s remote
control for this step.)
3. If the device turns on, the place the remote control touched the
device is the location of the sensor.
4. If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the
right and press POWER again.
5. Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared sensor.

TheaterNet™ on-screen device control
For additional control options
for your home theater system,
set up the TheaterNet on-screen
device control feature. You can
use this feature to control many
IR remote-controlled devices
(and IEEE-1394 devices) using
the on-screen control icons.
See pages 45–49 for details on
setting up and using TheaterNet.
See pages 22–23 for details on
connecting IEEE-1394 devices.
Note: The TheaterNet icon controls are the
only device functions available when the icons
are on-screen. To access other device
functions, close the TheaterNet icon window.
You can use the two bi-directional IEEE-1394 ports on the back
of your TV to connect digital video devices that meet CEA
specifications for IEEE-1394 (also known as Firewire).
Because these ports are bi-directional, they can be used for both
playback and recording.
• This TV is not intended for connection to and should not be
used with a PC (personal computer).
• Because IEEE-1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some
or all of the connectivity features of a device you connect to the TV
through the IEEE-1394 ports may not operate. You should confirm
that the devices you desire to use with the IEEE-1394 ports will
operate with those ports.
• This TV does not support all possible IEEE-1394 signal types. For
information on signals supported by the IEEE-1394 ports, see
“Supported signals” at right.
• IEEE-1394 cable carries both audio and video information;
no separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.
• See “Using the digital tuner hold” on page 61.
You will need:
one (or two) IEEE-1394 cables
additional A/V cables if your device is analog-compatible
(see “Using analog-compatible IEEE-1394 devices” below).

Using analog-compatible IEEE-1394
devices
Some digital IEEE-1394 devices are compatible with analog
signals. For example, some D-VHS VCRs can record and play
VHS or S-VHS format videos. Such devices allow you to play
analog tapes that you rented or recorded, or record analog
programs from antenna or Cable TV systems. To use the
IEEE-1394 device’s analog features, you need to connect the
device to the TV using standard A/V cables (or S-video plus
audio cables) in addition to connecting the IEEE-1394 cable.
Note: If you have an IEEE-1394 device connected to both
digital and analog inputs on the TV, the TV automatically
switches between analog and digital modes as needed, when
the initial device access is initiated using the TheaterNet button.
See page 45 for details on using the TheaterNet feature.
Supported signals
The IEEE-1394 ports support the signals listed below only.
Although incompatible video, audio, and digital control signals
cannot be decoded by the TV, these signals may be passed
through the IEEE-1394 cable to other compatible devices.
Incompatible devices may not appear in the TheaterNet menu.
• MPEG-2 digital video signals
Other digital video signals—such as DV video—are
incompatible and must be decoded by the source device and
sent to the TV as analog video (composite or S-video).
• Dolby Digital and MPEG digital audio signals
Other digital audio signals—such as DPM, MP3, and DTS—
are incompatible and cannot be decoded by the TV.
• EIA-775 and D-VHS A/VC digital control
Your TV can serve as the control center for many devices
that are compatible with EIA-775 or A/VC IEEE-1394
control standards (described below).
The TV cannot control IEEE-1394 devices that use any other
control standards.
– EIA-775 digital control allows tuning devices (such as
Cable boxes) to send simple graphics; however, this
standard does not allow the TV to control the Cable box
through IEEE-1394.
– D-VHS A/VC (audio/video control) provides basic
control (such as power, play, stop rewind, fast-forward,
pause, and record), as applicable to the specific device.
Using TheaterNet™ on-screen device
control
You can use the TheaterNet feature to control some IEEE-1394
devices using on-screen control icons. See page 45 for details on
setting up and using the TheaterNet feature.
Note: If the TheaterNet feature does not control your
IEEE-1394, you can try using IR pass-through with the TV’s
remote control (page 21) or use the device’s remote control.
Connecting IEEE-1394 (Firewire™) video devices (cont.)
IEEE-1394 device initialization
When you connect a new IEEE-1394 device to the TV and turn
it on, the device immediately announces its presence to the TV
(and other networked IEEE-1394 devices, if any), and the
following device initialization screen automatically appears.
Note: With some devices, it may take up to one minute for this
screen to appear.
1. If you connected your IEEE-1394 device to an analog input
also, use the
“Analog Input Used” field; otherwise, leave it set to
“None.” (See “Using analog-compatible IEEE-1394
devices” at right.)
2. If you want to label the device, highlight EDIT LABEL,
press ENTER, and then use the
the label.
3. Highlight SAVE and press ENTER to save the information.

Connecting IEEE-1394 (Firewire™) video devices (cont.)
IEEE-1394 device interconnection
IEEE-1394 devices can be interconnected (instead of each
device having to be connected to a separate input on the TV) in
either of two ways: (1) a device-to-device chain connection or
(2) a hub connection.
Chain connection
Connect the first IEEE-1394 device to one of the TV’s
IEEE-1394 inputs, and then connect each subsequent device to
the preceeding device in the chain.
• Read the “Important information” at right.
• Devices in the middle of the chain will need two IEEE-1394
ports for this connection to work as illustrated.
Hub connection
You can connect a chain of IEEE-1394 devices to each of the
TV’s two IEEE-1394 jacks. The TV will then serve as a hub in
your A/V system. Each device can send audio and video
information to any other device in the system.
• Read the “Important information” at right.
• Devices in the middle of the chain will need two IEEE-1394
ports for this connection to work as illustrated.
Important information regarding
IEEE-1394 device interconnection
• Do not loop the last device in the chain back to the TV.
If the device chain is looped, the TV may not work properly with the
other devices in the chain.
• Place devices with the slowest communication speed atthe end of each chain. If a device with a slower communication
speed is placed ahead of a faster device in the chain, the signal
from the slower device will interfere with the signal from the faster
device. To determine the communication speed of an IEEE-1394
device, look for an “S” number near the device’s IEEE-1394
connector. The higher the “S” number, the faster the device. If your
device is not marked with an “S” number, look in the device’s user
manual or call the device manufacturer’s technical support number.
• If your IEEE-1394 device has a two-position power
switch, place the device at the end of the chain or leave
the power switch ON at all times. If the power switch is OFF,
it will interfere with signals from devices behind it in the chain.
• The maximum length for an IEEE-1394 cable between
each device is 15 feet.
• This TV is an IEEE-1394A device. The IEEE-1394B protocol is
faster and intended to allow for longer distances between devices
and multi-room systems. IEEE-1394A–to–IEEE-1394B converters
(available at some electronics suppliers) may allow compatibility of
IEEE-1394B devices with your existing IEEE-1394A devices.
This connection is necessary to enable the TV Guide On Screen™ system’s device control and one-touch recording features.
After you connect your devices to the TV (pages 12–24), you will need to connect the G-LINK cable (one of the dual-wand IR
blaster cables included with your TV) from your VCR and Cable box (if applicable) to the G-LINK jack on the TV. This connection
is necessary to enable the following features of your TV Guide On Screen
• If you have a Cable box, you need to connect the IR blaster cable from the Cable box to the G-LINK jack to receive the TV Guide
On Screen system’s program listings for your Cable service.
• If you have a VCR, you need to connect the IR blaster cable from the VCR to the G-LINK jack to use the TV Guide On Screen
system’s one-touch recording feature.
To connect to the G-LINK jack:
1. Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your VCR or
Cable box. The sensor is marked on some devices.*
2. Align one of the G-LINK (IR blaster) cable’s wands about
1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the
VCR and attach it using the included mounting tape.
If you have a Cable box, attach the other wand in a similar
manner. (See illustration at right.)
Note: If you do not have a Cable box, coil the second wand
with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.
3. Plug the G-LINK (IR blaster) cable’s plug into the TV’s
G-LINK jack.

Programming channels automatically
Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your
area and store them in its memory. After the channels are
programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase
individual channels.
Note:
• If you already programmed channels automatically during the
Quick Connect Guide assisted setup, you can skip to “Manually
adding and deleting channels in the channel memory” on the
next page.
• You must configure the antenna input sources before
programming channels (see page 41).
• The automatic channel programming process does NOT erase
channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s
memory, but adds newly found channels to the existing set of
programmed channels. To remove a channel from the memory,
you must manually delete it (see next page).
• To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel
memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the
remote control.
• Programming channels for an antenna input configured for
CABLE will take substantially longer than for an antenna input
configured for ANTENNA. This is normal; however, once
channel programming is completed, you should not have to
repeat the programming process again unless your Cable TV
service lineup changes significantly.

4. Q: I used to have a cable box, but now I get direct cable.
What do I do?
A: Open the TV Guide On Screen SETUP menu and follow
the on-screen prompts to enter new input information and
rescan channels for the new input (see page 37 for details).
7. Q: I had a power outage. Do I need to go through initial
setup of the TV Guide On Screen system again?
A: No. The information you entered is in a protected part of
the TV Guide On Screen system memory.
Note: For Cable box users, the TV must be OFF and the Cable

receive channel line-up information.
8. Q: How do I access the TV Guide On Screen system setup
screen?
A: For initial setup, press the GUIDE key on the remote
control, and then follow the on-screen prompts.
After initial setup, there are two ways:
a) Press GUIDE, then use the UP and RIGHT arrow keys to
highlight SETUP on the Menu Bar, and then use the
DOWN arrow key to highlight “Change system settings.”
Follow the on-screen prompts.
b) Press MENU, open the SETUP menu, highlight
INSTALLATION and press ENTER to open the
INSTALLATION menu. Open the TV GUIDE ON
SCREEN SETUP menu, highlight START, and press
ENTER. Follow the on-screen prompts.
9. Q: How do I connect the G-LINK (IR blaster) cable to the
G-LINK input on the TV?
A: See Chapter 2: Connecting your TV in this manual.
You also can refer to the TV Guide On Screen prompts
during VCR or Cable box setup.
5. Q: Why does it take 24 hours for the TV Guide On Screen
system to be ready for use?
A: TV Guide On Screen data may be ready earlier. It depends
on when the feature is set up and if the device is in use.
Often it just takes overnight. Data is downloaded four
times daily, so it may be updated within 6 to 10 hours.
6. Q: I completed the initial setup for my TV Guide On
Screen hours ago, but when I try to turn it on, a screen
message tells me to input the correct setup information.
What’s wrong?
A: There are several possibilities:
a) Initial setup was done incorrectly. (i.e., you entered wrong
country, ZIP/postal code, or cable box information.)
b) The cable box was turned OFF. The television must be OFF
and the cable box ON.
c) The VCR, DVD, or Satellite box was left ON.
d) A/V cables: The VCR was turned OFF. If the connection
includes stereo cables with cable box to VCR, stereo
connection from VCR to the television, the VCR must be
tuned to the output channel and powered ON.
10. Q: When will I be able to view my TV program listings and
use other TV Guide On Screen system features?
A: The TV Guide On Screen system will be ready for use
within 24 hours of initial setup.
11. Q: What should I do if I cannot complete initial setup?
A: If you are unable to complete initial setup using the owner’s
manual and the on-screen prompts, please call Toshiba’s
National Service Division at 1-800-631-3811.
12. Q: If I make a mistake during setup, how do I go back to
the previous step?
A: Complete the remaining setup steps. When “Confirming
Your Settings” appears, select “No, repeat setup process.”
Follow the on-screen prompts and input the correct
information.
13. Q: What if the channel number is not visible on my cable
box?
A: Your cable box may be defaulting to a clock or time display
once the channel changes. Watch the box carefully when
testing the cable box brand code to see if the channel
changes to 09.
14. Q: Why won’t my VCR turn on?
A: There are several possibilities:
a) The wired remote VCR is incompatible.
b) The VCR does not have remote power capability. The user
must leave the VCR ON for recording.
c) The VCR remote mode was set to “B” or “2.” The remote
should be set to “A” or “1.”
d) An incorrect or “no VCR” code was entered during the
TV Guide On Screen initial setup. Press the GUIDE
button on the remote control, and then press • to
highlight SETUP. Press z to highlight “Change system
settings,” and then press ENTER. Follow the on-screen
prompts to select the correct VCR information.
e) The VCR record timer is on. Turn off the timer.
f) Make sure the G-LINK (IR blaster) cable is connected
correctly (see page 25).
Operational Questions
CHANNEL LINE-UPS & LISTINGS
1. Q: Why aren’t all my channels initially displayed?
A: After initial setup, approximately fifty (50) channels are
automatically displayed. The user may use the “Change
channel display” feature to turn ON or OFF additional
channels.
Note: Even though you have the option of enabling many
more channels, the system may not have the memory capacity
to hold detailed program descriptions for all of them.
2. Q: Why do all my channels display “No Listing?”
A: The TV Guide On Screen system has not yet received its
data download. The phrase “No Listings“ will be replaced
with program information during the next download cycle,
which will occur within the next 24-hour period.
3. Q: Why do some of my channels display “No Listing?”
A: There are several possibilities:
a) The channels in question were recently turned ON (in
Change channel display) and TV Guide On Screen has yet
to receive its next data download.
b) After completing the initial setup, the first data download
of the day was interrupted by a VCR recording.
c) The TV power cord was left unplugged for an extended
period of time and the TV Guide On Screen system was
unable to receive program listings during the scheduled
download cycle.
d) Poor reception caused some of the data to be missed.
e) The cable box was turned OFF. The TV power cord must
be plugged in and the cable box must be ON.
g) A/V Cable: The VCR was turned OFF. If the connection
includes stereo cables with cable box to VCR and stereo
connection from VCR to television, the VCR must be ON.
4. Q: How do I add, delete, or change the assigned number of
channels on the TV Guide On Screen system?
A: See the “Change channel display” section in the TV Guide
On Screen owner’s manual.
5. Q: If a channel is displayed on my TV Guide On Screen
listing, does that mean I should be able to watch it?
A: Not necessarily, because TV Guide On Screen only displays
listings for the local channel line-up. If the user has cable,
their cable company determines the channels received.
6. Q: Why are some of my channels listed on the wrong
number?
A: There are several possibilities:
1) Initial setup was done incorrectly. (i.e., the wrong ZIP/
postal code was entered.) Redo the initial setup.
2) Incorrect channel lineup was selected. Access “Change
system settings” and choose “Yes, but my channel lineup is
incorrect,” and then reselect the correct lineup.)
3) Channel line-up changes have not yet been processed. (Use
the “Change channel display” feature to make
adjustments.)
7. Q: Why doesn’t the program highlighted match up with
the video window on my TV screen?
A: There are several possibilities:
a) The station in question made a late change to its scheduled
program listing and the TV Guide On Screen system has
not yet been updated.
b) The TV is receiving broadcasts through a modified or
boosted antenna system or a satellite dish (not supported
by the TV Guide On Screen system).
c) Initial setup was done incorrectly. (i.e., the wrong ZIP/
postal code was entered.) Redo the initial setup.
d) Incorrect channel lineup was selected. Access “Change
system settings” and choose “Yes, but my channel lineup is
incorrect,” and then reselect the correct lineup.)
e) The video window may be locked. Press SPLIT to unlock.
8. Q: Why is there no picture in the video window?
A: If you turn ON the digital tuner hold when ANT 2 is the
selected input source and then open the TV Guide
On Screen system, the Video Window may not display a
picture. If this happens and you want to use the TV Guide
On Screen system, turn OFF the digital tuner hold and
select ANT 1 or VIDEO 1 as the input source.
9. Q: Can I move my favorite stations to the top of the TV
Guide On Screen display screen?
A: Yes. Use the “Change channel display” feature to make
adjustments. Highlight the station call letters to be moved,
then use the BLUE, GREEN, and/or Nuttons to reassign
the position of the station.
OPERATIONS
10. Q: My cable box will not change channels with the
TV Guide On Screen system. What’s wrong?
A: There are several possibilities:
a) The cable box has no remote capability and is
incompatible.
b) The cable box sensor has not been activated. Contact your
local Cable TV company.
c) The incorrect cable box code was entered during TV Guide
On Screen initial setup. Redo initial setup.
d) The G-LINK (IR blaster) cable may not be connected
properly (see page 25).
11. Q: How do I resize or close the INFO window?
A: Repeatedly press the INFO button on the remote control,
which works like a toggle switch.
12. Q: Is there a way to go directly to the next day’s listings
without scrolling through each time slot?
A: Yes. Highlight the “Listings” panel then use the BLUE and
GREEN buttons on the remote control to move forward or
backward 24 hours at a time.
13. Q: Why can’t I record a show? All I get is snow or a blue
screen.
A: There are several possibilities (without a cable box):
a) The TV/CATV mode was set incorrectly. Refer user to
VCR owner’s manual.
b) The VCR channels were not programmed into the VCR’s
memory. Refer to your VCR owner’s manual.
c) The VCR was not hooked up correctly for recording. Refer
to your VCR owner’s manual.
d) The incorrect channel lineup was selected. Press GUIDE
and then • to highlight SETUP. Press z to highlight
“Change system settings,” and then press ENTER. Follow
the on-screen prompts to select the correct channel lineup.
e) Dirty or defective tape heads. Refer to your VCR owner’s
manual for maintenance tips.
14. Q: Why won’t my VCR change channels and why does it
change to the wrong channel?
A: There are several possibilities (without a cable box):
a) The cable box code was entered when no cable box is used.
Redo initial setup.
b) The manual preset VCR must be left on the channel to be
recorded.
c) The electronic preset VCR is incompatible unless used in
conjunction with a cable box.
d) The VCR channels are not programmed into VCR
memory. Refer to your VCR owner’s manual.
e) The VCR’s “CATV” mode was set incorrectly (For
problems with channels 14 and above, refer to your VCR
owner’s manual).
A: There are several possibilities (with a cable box):
a) The VCR is not set on the correct output channel. Set the
VCR to 03, 04, or whichever output channel is set by your
cable system.
b) The VCR and/or cable box are hooked up incorrectly.
Refer to your VCR owner’s manual or contact your Cable
TV company for proper wiring procedures.
c) The cable box was left OFF. Leave the cable box ON and
the VCR OFF.
15. Q: Can I record one channel while watching another?
A: (without a cable box): Yes. If the TV picture becomes
“fuzzy” when the VCR turns on to record, simply press the
TV/VCR button on your VCR remote.
A: (with a cable box): No. You cannot watch one program and
record another unless you connect a splitter or a special
type of “watch-and-record” device. Contact your Cable TV
company or an electronics dealer for more information.
RECORDING
16. Q: How many programs can be scheduled for FAVORITE/
RECORD in the GUIDE?
A: There is no limit to the number of shows that can be
programmed into the schedule memory.
17. Q: If a program is scheduled to RECORD on a Regular
basis, does it count as five?
A: No, whether a program is scheduled ONCE, DAILY, or
WEEKLY, it only counts as one show in the RECORD
stack memory.
18. Q: If I have a power failure, will I need to reset the
recorded shows I have already programmed?
A: The start times and channel numbers of shows that have
been programmed will be retained in the memory of the
TV Guide On Screen system. Titles will appear once
listings are restored.
