OPERATION - Programme Reminders And Timers.
You can return to the current programme display by
pressing the [LEFT] key or to normal television
viewing (to watch the channel last selected in the
EPG screen) by pressing the [GUIDE] key again,
or the [MENU] key.
AUDIO CONTROL
Volume Control
The volume level of the sound from the HDB60
receiver can be altered with the [V+] and [V-] keys
on the remote control handset. Pressing either key
displays a bar graph of the sound volume on the TV
screen.
The volume level selected will remain set, even when
the receiver is turned off and on again, until it is
altered with the [V+] and [V-] keys.
Hint
The audio volume adjustment for the HDB60
receiver is independent of the volume control
on your TV set. Be careful that both volume
controls are kept within reasonable levels so
that when switching from analogue to digital
television viewing, or when first turning on your
TV set, the sound level is not suddenly very
high.
You can silence the sound from the receiver by
pressing the [MUTE] key. The sound remains muted
until the [MUTE] key is pressed again, the [V+] or
[V-] keys are pressed, or until the receiver is turned
off and on again.
While the sound is muted in this way, the mute
symbol is displayed in the top left of the TV screen.
The symbol is removed after 3 seconds, but the
sound will remain muted until the [MUTE] key is
pressed for the second time, and the un mute
symbol will display for 3 seconds.
Soundtrack Language
Some programmes are broadcast in two or more
languages simultaneously. The language heard can
be selected from the Language Menu. Press
[MENU] to display the Main Menu and use the [UP]
or [DOWN] keys to highlight the Language line and
press [SELECT]. Use the [UP] or [DOWN] keys to
highlight the soundtrack language required and press
[SELECT]. Normal viewing, with the required
language soundtrack, can be resumed by pressing
the [MENU] key.
If the programme has no alternative language
soundtrack broadcast, the Language Menu will not
be available, but a message, 'No Multi Language
Available' is displayed briefly.
DIGITAL TELETEXT
Many digital terrestrial television channels not only
broadcast pictures and sound for programmes but
also pages of information on the programmes, the
weather, news and many other topics. This digital
teletext can be displayed by the HDB60 receiver.
Some channels are entirely given over to digital
teletext and carry no normal TV programme at all.
These dedicated digital teletext channels will not give
a quarter-screen image in the EPG or the Channel
List screen. When such a channel is selected, after
a brief pause, they will usually display the opening
page of information automatically.
Other channels have digital teletext pages
broadcast alongside the television programme and
often include a reduced-size broadcast picture within
digital teletext pages. These usually require the
[TEXT] button to be pressed to activate the digital
teletext pages.
In both cases, moving through the different pages
of information is accomplished in a variety of ways,
dependent on the individual broadcasters, but
including use of the [UP], [DOWN], [LEFT],
[RIGHT] and [SELECT] keys to select items from
on-screen menus, and the coloured keys to jump
directly to particular pages.
You can exit any digital teletext channel by changing
channel in any of the normal ways. You can leave
the digital teletext function of a combined digital
teletext/programme channel, to return to normal
television viewing of that channel, by pressing the
[TEXT] key.
