Please tell me about the downloading
of program listings data.
≥Channel line-up data is transmitted continuously, 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
≥Program listings information that contains details about each program is usually
transmitted four times a day, and the cycles last approximately 3 hours. The TV Guide On
Screen
R
system only requires one transmission a day to maintain up-to-date program
listings. Because the unit must be turned off in order to receive new information, multiple
transmissions are conveniently scheduled early to mid-morning and during the early
afternoon hours.

Why doesn’t my favorite program
have more information in the
information window or expanded
information window?
≥The hardware that makes TV Guide On Screen
R
system possible is a computer chip that
has limited storage space. Factors used in determining which programs display detailed
program information are the number of channels turned “ON” in the CHANNEL EDITOR
screen and the availability of the descriptions.
Setting channels that cannot be received to “OFF” in the CHANNEL EDITOR screen may
increase the amount of information displayed.

Can I record one channel while
watching another?

≥Yes. Change the television’s input mode to “TV”.
If you connect a cable box or a satellite receiver
≥No. The user cannot watch one program and record another.

If I have a power failure, will I need to
reset the scheduled recording of
programs I have already set?
≥In most cases the scheduled recording of programs will be saved. However, if an
extended power failure occurs, it is strongly recommended that you verify the scheduled
recording of programs that you had previously set. Press [SCHEDULE] to display the
SCHEDULE screen.
