Downloading Data
The GUIDE Plus+ Gold System is not available until it completes its
first download of program information. When the power is turned off,
the monitor locates a “host channel” that carries GUIDE Plus+ Gold
data containing program schedule and channel mapping information.
A channel map is the list of stations and their respective channels.
To ensure that your first download of data is complete, you should
leave your monitor off overnight. Downloads occur several times a
day. The monitor must be turned off for GUIDE Plus+ Gold data to
download.
If the monitor loses power or is unplugged, GUIDE Plus+ Gold
program information may be lost. When power is restored, make sure
the setup information is still correct. The GUIDE Plus+ Gold program
will complete a download at the next available time.
Channel Mapping
If more than one cable company services your area, you may be
prompted with a Channel Mapping screen after the first GUIDE Plus+
Gold download. You will need to identify your cable company by
selecting the correct channel numbers for the stations in question.
• Use the left and right arrows to change the channel group and press
OK when the correct channel group is highlighted.
