Chapter 4: Setting up your TV

Programming channels into the
TV’s channel memory

When you press < or , on the remote control or TV control
panel, your TV will stop only on the channels you program into
the TV's channel memory.
Follow the steps below to program channels into the TV’s
channel memory.

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.

Notes:
You must configure the antenna input sources before

programming channels (

- page 16).

If the input signal type is set to Cable for an antenna input,

the automatic channel programming process erases
channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s
memory.

If the input signal type is set to Antenna, 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.

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.

If you have a CableCARD™ inserted, channel programming

for ANT 1 is disabled because the CableCARD™
automatically loads the Cable channel list into the TV’s
channel memory. See Installation Guide for details on
CableCARD™.
