Special Features of the High Definition Projection Television
Channel and Program Tuning
Channel and Program tuning in digital television is different from
current conventional television. In DTV, multiple programs can
exist within a single 6MHZ channel. These channels behave as
sub-channels within a single channel. When tuning to a digital
channel, the HDTV Projection Television will also tune to a
program. The HDTV Projection Television will indicate the channel
and program using the on-screen Channel Banner display.
Note:
In order to select channels properly, Auto Scan must be
performed (refer to page 27).
Tuning digital and analog channels
You can tune the digital and analog channels in the following
ways:
ˆ
Direct tuning (0 - 9 keys) - using the numeric keys on the
Remote control to directly input the Channel number. If
necessary, use the button to enter the program number of
the digital channel.
ˆ Channel Up/Down Tuning (CH or CH buttons) - Tunes
to the next or previous available channel or program. The
Channel Up/Down tuning depends upon the surfing mode
(see pg. 21) you have set in the Channel menu.
ˆ Rapid Tuning (R-TUNE) - Switches between the last two
channels or programs.
Direct Tuning Method

Emergency Alert System (EAS) Forced Tuning
If a CableCARD™ module is installed, the cable MSO (multiple
system owner/operator) may provide an Emergency Alert System
message. These messages are intended to alert the general
public of important local or national emergency situations. In the
event of receipt of one of these messages, the HDTV Projection
Television shall immediately tune to the channel as directed by the
EAS message. If the channel has blocked using the parental
control, the parental blocking has priority over the forced tune.
