Watching DVB broadcasts Software update TV base software and DVB software To ensure that your TV set is always up to date, from time to time SHARP will make updated TV base software and DVB software versions available. These updates are broadcast via satellite (only via ASTRA1). • This function is not available in some countries. Automatic search for new software via satellite The set automatically determines whether a new software version is available via satellite during the night when the EPG data are updated. However the TV set must remain in standby mode for this (do not switch off the set with the power switch). If a new software version has been found, the set informs you with an on-screen message the next time it is switched on (see right column – “Loading new software”). Manual search for new software via satellite If it is not automatically displayed that a new software is available when switching on the set, you can also run a manual search. The system first checks whether a software update is available via satellite.Press MENU and the TV menu screen displays. Press c/d to select “Setup”, and then press b to move down. Press c/d to select “Miscellaneous”, and then press b to move down. Press c/d to select “Software update”, and then press OK. • The software versions currently loaded in the set are listed.

At the end of loading: Turn off the TV set off with the power switch, unplug the AC cord, and turn it on again. • If a new software has not been updated via satellite, you will be reminded of this several times after switching on the set. 6 7 29 LC -5 2H D1E -g b.i n dd 2 9LC-52HD1E-gb.indd 292008/0 3/2 4 1 5:0 1:1 82008/03/24 15:01:18

NOTE • If you use an external recorder without AV Link, you have to select the recording source in the recorder (e.g. AUX, refer to your recorder’s operation manual). In case of recording DVB programmes, the TV’s tuner is used, not the VCR’s tuner. • If you use an external recorder with AV Link, this recording source selection is controlled automatically. Timer list Here you will find a list of channels already programmed for recording. From here, you can also change the recording data (GREEN), delete programmed recordings completely (YELLOW), or programme a new recording (RED) by pressing the assigned colour buttons. Pre- and post record time If you record a programme without VPS, you can specify a time span by which your programme time should be brought forward/prolonged so that programmes which begin/end too early/late are recorded from start to finish. 1 2 3 Menu operation Timer recording with external devices E Recorder with AV Link If you use an externally connected recorder with AV Link or a similar system, the TV set and connected recorder exchange its own station/timer data. Please consult the operating manual of your recorder to find out if your recorder is AV Link compatible. In addition use only Euro SCART cables for the connection between the TV set and recorder. Analogue stations The timer data is transmitted automatically from the TV set to the recorder after programming is complete. The recording is then controlled by the recorder and the recorder tuner is used for reception of the programme. The recording data is not saved in the timer list of the TV set. Consequently if you want to change or delete the timer data then you must do so on the recorder. Digital stations If you want to record digital stations with an externally connected recorder, then the DVB tuner is used and the TV device takes over control of the recorder. Then the station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording. E Recorder without AV Link If you cannot programme your externally connected recorder from the TV set, but it supports AV Link, the receiver of the TV set is always used. AV Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating instructions of your recorder. In addition use only Euro SCART cables for the connection between the TV set and recorder. Analogue and digital stations You can control the recording from the TV set. The recorder must be set manually to the AV input to which the TV is connected. Then the station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording. Copy protection Copy-protected programs will not be output on the EURO SCART sockets for legal reasons. 34 L C -5 2H D1E -g b.i n dd 3 4LC-52HD1E-gb.indd 342008/0 3/2 4 1 5:0 1:2 42008/03/24 15:01:24
