Retuning your Freesat digibox
From time to time you may find that some of your channels are missing. This can be due to frequencies changing when your box is switched off or, as recently (October 2012), a change to a new satellite. If you have found that you have channels missing you will need to “re-scan” to re-instate them.
You should refer to your User Guide or the following may help you re-tune your box…
On the Humax range of receivers:
1. Press the MENU button.
2. Select Setup using the UP/DOWN button and press the OK button.
3. Select Freesat Tune using the UP/DOWN button and press the OK button.
4. Enter your UK postcode code.
5. Please note that once you perform Freesat Tune, all freesat channels will be deleted. Select Yes and
press the OK button to delete all freesat channels.
6. Select Search and press the OK button to search channels.
7. The channel search will start.
8. To stop the search, press the OK button during channel search.
9. The results will appear. Select Save and press the OK button.
Note: If there are no channels available, a message indicating the result will pop up.
