Troubleshooting

Symptom: Problems with Cable Channels

There are three types of cable channel systems, Cable, IRC, and HRC. While the Cable setting works for over 90% of

installations, there are a few cable systems set for IRC and HRC channel frequencies. Here’s how to tell which is which:

IRC– Channels 5 and 6 are missing. Change to IRC and they will appear.

HRC – None of the channels tune in, or they are noisy or lack audio. Change to HRC.

Symptom: Need to change Unit # of Tuner

See Page 9 for S2 RS-232 command.

Symptom: How do I select the composite input?

Select Channel 126.
