FREESAT - NON-FREESAT GUIDE TUNING THE HUMAX FOXSAT-HDR.
THE HUMAX FOXSAT-HDR NON-FREESAT TUNING GUIDE is not the hassle many would have you believe it is.
To tune for non-freesat channels we are only concerned with two buttons on the Humax Foxsat-HDR. The first is the stylish
silver disc shaped button with embedded small directional arrow heads in the centre of the remote control and the other is the menu button.
For this guide we are using a fixed dish set-up on 28.2 East (or as is commonly but wrongly known as the Sky satellite - the proper name is
Astra 2A,2B,2C,2D fleet - which belongs to SES ASTRA).
To tune in these extra channels;
using the Humax Foxsat-HDR remote control - press menu > this takes you to settings with four graphic symbols on the left hand side.
pressing the centre silver disc down until the satellite dish is highlighted > you will then be in setup > again using the centre silver
control right arrow and highlight manual tune >press the same key again until you see in manual tune;
transponder - all
network search - enable (use the same centre silver dic key to change this)
scrambled type - FTA (free to air)
channel type - all
then press search > let it complete, which may take some time - we found 369 TV channels and 110 Radio
once completed the Foxsat-HDR will ask if you wish to store this info, o.k. this and once loaded again using the centre silver disc key
press the left arrow until you are back into the left hand graphics highlighting ability - using the up arrow highlight the World with the
Watch and on your right hand side of the screen you will see non-freesat showing across from STB mode.
When you can see that the non-freesat channels have been stored you can then press the menu button to view them. To get back to
freesat > press the menu button and using the centre silver disc button highlight the World with the Watch and pressing the right
arrow button highlight the non-freesat > by pressing the right arrow it will change to freesat > once changed to freesat you can once
again press the menu button to view freesat. You have to go through this menu procedure each time you wish to view either your
favourite freesat or non-freesat channels.
To edit or delete your non-freesat > simply use the centre silver disc button to first enter non-freesat mode, and then highlight the second top graphic
use the arrow symbols to highlight the channel you wish to remove and delete it.
