Using your DTR remote control
The next few pages of this manual will help you to get the most out of your DTR.
It is worth keeping this manual to hand for a few days whilst you get to know how
it works. For reference, a few of the basic functions are shown below. Note they
are all described in more detail later on in this manual.
Getting Started
To ensure the best operation of your DTR, we recommend that you leave your DTR
in STANDBY whenever it is not in use. Note that turning the power off at the mains
will prevent your DTR from receiving Top Up TV programmes.
If the installation fails, check the points below and try to rescan
for channels again.
• Check that all the connections have been made as shown in the diagram on
page 6 and the power is switched on to all of the equipment.
• Check that the batteries in the remote control are in the right way round
and press the DTR button. Check that the DTR button flashes when pressed.
• Make sure the TV aerial is connected directly to your DTR (1st in chain).
• Check any signal boosters are Digital TV compatible and switched on.
• Repeat the installation by following the channel scan instructions on page 8
of the main user manual.
If the installation still fails, please refer to the Troubleshooting
guide and/or the help pages on the website topuptv.com
You may also call Top Up TV on 08444 159 159 for further
assistance.
If your viewing card has not been inserted into the DTR for 7 days after receipt,
then you may need to call Top Up TV on 08444 158 158 to reactivate the card.
