Operating modes – EPG

In front of the programme’s title, the system places an 



. This station is switched 

later to this programme when the set is switched on. If the TV is off, it switches on 
again automatically at the beginning of the marked programme if this has been 
set in the EPG menu. If you are out, a security prompt prevents the TV set staying 
on unattended.
Before leaving the upper selection lines using the 

blue coloured key

, select a 

specific line. If you have switched back to the programme list, you can change this 
menu line using 

 without having to leave the programme list.

Programming recording for recorders

The programme marked using the 

 buttons can be prepared for recording by 

pressing the 

red coloured key

. In the following menu, confirm the timer data or 

change them as required. Then a red dot is set in front of this programme in the 
EPG programme list as an identification (if timer data is being transferred to the 
recorder, no red dot is set). If you select this programme, you can delete it from 
the timer using the red coloured key (if the timer data has been transferred to a 
recorder, the timer has to be deleted there).

EPG menu

You will find the following settings in the EPG menu:
• Select provider     • Station selection     • Timer list     • Data capture

Selecting providers and stations

If you want to change the provider for analogue TV reception (the station which 
transmits EPG data) to have other stations evaluated, you can do this under 
“Select provider“.
Select “Select provider“ and call this menu using 

OK

. If the station you want to 

switch to is not listed in the “Select provider“ list, then use the 

yellow coloured 

key

 to start the automatic search for stations with EPG data. This takes a while.

Or, if you know the station that transmits EPG data, press the 

blue coloured key

to compile manually. Select the provider in the station list and adopt it by using 

OK

 and return to the provider selection using  .

Select the provider in “Select provider“ and adopt it using 

OK

. Then a station list 

search is performed. The stations offered by the provider are displayed in a list.

First, all stations are marked with the 



 symbol so that their data is display-

ed in the programme guide (precondition: provided EPG data is broadcast for 
the respective station). Stations indicated by 



 are analogue terrestrial/cable 

stations, stations indicated by 



 are DVB-T stations, stations indicated by 



 are 

DVB-C stations and stations indicated by 



 are DVB-S stations. These stations are 

available for evaluation in the programme guide.
Select the stations you want to omit from the programme guide one after another 
and deactivate each one by using 

OK

. The 



 symbol is removed.

Data capture

After these settings or after each time the set is switched off using the mains 
switch, the data must first be collected, before switching on the set. 
To do this, select the station you have defined as a provider and leave the TV 
set switched on for about one hour or switch the set to the standby mode. After 
about two minutes in standby mode, the indicator on the set turns orange. The 
data acquisition begins and lasts about 1 hour. When data acquisition is termi-
nated, the indicator turns red again. The data are also automatically captured 
between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. when the TV is switched to standby.
A prerequisite for data capture is that “Data capture“ is “on“ (for DVB + analogue) 
in the EPG menu. 
Note: If the TV set is switched off using the mains switch or the mains plug is 
pulled out, all EPG data are lost.
If, for example, you cannot receive any analogue EPG providers or if you only use 
DVB, you should set the data capture to “on (only for DVB)“. 

Switch on TV when marked

You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the beginning of 
the marked programme. If you are not present at the time, a safety prompt makes 
sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.
