Your television already has a basic configuration stored in memory that should meet any of your essential needs in the 
immediate future. However, the configuration must be revised every time that:

■

An automatic search is conducted. 

■

Some change has been made in the way the information is transmitted or in the page numbers that contain the

information on each of the stations. 

■

A new station is added. 

Before we explain how to configure the system, several points about the teletext are worth clarifying: 

■

Some broadcasting stations send teletext data and some do not. You can find out whether teletext is available

by pressing the TEXT/MIX button. If you see a black screen, there is no teletext. 

■

The information that you receive in the TXT is presented in pages, each of which is associated with a number

that appears in the upper left-hand corner.

■

There are two kinds of pages that are of interest for correctly configuring the TV Guide:

a) 

Rolling: pages which once they are requested, regularly change their content (about once every minute).

Usually these are identified by the appearance on-screen of one of the following character groups on  one of the pages:
1/3 or 2/3 or 3/3 or 2/5 or 3/5 or 4/5...
In the above cases, the characters indicate that the page being displayed is the first, second or third page of a total set
of 3, or the second, third or fourth page of a total set of five. 
b) 

Non-rolling: pages whose content does not change. 

■

If the station is transmitting teletext using the FLOF standard, a coloured line appears in the lower area of the text. 

Pressing a colour key accesses new pages associated with these colours. (The allocation of page number to colour is
done by the broadcasting station, and the television automatically decodes it). 

Press the MENU button, press BLUE button and press YELLOW button to see the TV GUIDE menu.
The name of a station will appear (on a white ground) with data to the right (on a red ground). 
The meaning of this data is clarified by this example:

The first line describes the information that can be found on the station identified as XXX1. The two items (401 and 

)

indicate the access path to the information and the third item (Rolling) indicates the type of page; finally, the last element
indicates that the information for the end user concerns the station XXX1. 
The second line shows very similar data, indicating the access path and the type of page where the end-user information
on station XXX2 is found. 

These data instruct the television how to proceed when the station XXX1 is being viewed (normal operation of the set).
In this particular case the TV will automatically request page 401 of the teletext and then the page associated with the
colours green and red (to access the programming information on XXX1 and XXX2). 

Two important points should be stressed:

■

The information captured by the TV can only be effectively displayed if (in the example presented above) XXX1 and
XXX2 are stored in the memory of PR 1 to PR 4. 

■

The entire process described above is automatic once the system has been configured correctly. There is 
nothing further that must be done. 

Using the buttons 

E

and 

F

(up and down), you can move through all the elements on the list, noting that for

each station identification there are different page numbers and different access modes. For example: 

All these data instruct the TV that, when XXX1 is being viewed, the search for the XXX1 programming information should
begin on page 301 (301 and 

), and that this information is not in rolling format; that is, it will request the consecutive

pages from 301 on, up to a maximum of six pages. The procedure is identical for accessing information about XXX2.
