Philips T374AH User's Manual

Channel Guide

This feature is activated with the Guest or Setup remote’s CH GDE button. This feature uses the labels that are assigned by the channel labeling function described on page three. Once activated by pressing the CH GDE button, the TV lists the Channel Labels for channels with assigned labels. Channels that are not in the Favorite Station memory (see “ADD

CHANNEL” on page four) will not be displayed. Each listing or “page” will show seven channel labels. Each press of the CH GDE button will show subsequent channel listing pages if they exist. The maximum number of labels that can be displayed is 32. If CH GDE is not pressed for seven seconds, the listing will timeout.

If any other remote command is sent that requires the television on-screen display, the listing will be cleared, and that command invoked.

IMPORTANT: When programming is complete, press or depress the RECALL button to save the program changes in the

TV memory.

To adjust the TV for either Hotel or Consumer mode, press the TV SETUP button on the remote, then enter the numerical sequence 02 49 95, then press the

SELECT button. Choose between Hotel or Consumer mode by pressing either the + or - button. Only a limited amount of features are available in Consumer mode.

NSTRUCTIONS

The T374AH remote control is used to perform setup and verification operations on Philips Consumer

Electronics Company commercial chassis. This remote is fully backward compatible with previous commercial chassis setup remotes, but has added functionality.

The three buttons at the bottom of the remote,

TV Guest,

TV Setup, and

DCM Setup, are called function buttons. They are used to select the desired function to be performed.

TV Guest mode will emulate the “Guest” remote commands. This provides the installer the ability to verify proper “Guest Remote” operation using only one remote. Only the commands supported on the

“Guest” remote may be valid. To use this function, press the TV GUEST button, then press any button that corresponds to the “Guest Remote.” The remote will remain in the TV Guest mode until another function button is pressed.

TV Setup mode is used to set all the TV control settings and commercial features.

This function is completely backward compatible with previous setup transmitters but has additional buttons that are valid for newer TV control systems. The remote will remain in the TV Setup mode until another function button is pressed.

DCM Setup (Data Communication Module) mode is similar to the TV Guest

Mode except the Select and Cursor keys send “Softkey” commands, allowing the DCM to have its own setup keys. The function of these keys will depend upon each DCM manufacturer. The remote will remain in the DCM Setup mode until another function button is pressed.

Softkey is defined as a command that is never acted upon by the TV control system.

It is always passed through the “Smart Port” to the DCM. Each DCM manufacturer can make its own interpretation of the function of the key. The functional description of the TV controls and features are as follows: To set up the TV, press the TV Setup button to place the remote in TV Setup mode.
