How come the initial setup

appears every time I Turn On

this unit?

Why can I not watch some RF

signal TV programs.

to their corresponding colored jacks on the unit.

When I enter a channel number,

it changes automatically.

• Many Digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The unit changes the numbers automatically to the ones signifying the

broadcasting station channel number. These basic numbers used for previous Analog broadcasts. (e.g., Input ch# 30 automatically

changes to ch# 6.1)

Why are captions not displayed

entirely? Or, captions are

delayed behind the dialog.

• Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialog are common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production

companies can display a dialog to maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialog exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to

insure that the captions remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialog.

How can I set the clock ?

• There is no clock function on this unit.

I cannot change the Child lock

setting because my PIN code no

longer works.

• Although the default PIN code (0000) is supplied with the unit, the PIN code will be required once you set a PIN code in Child

and ratings lock.
