Using the FOXTEL iQ
v Using the av button
You may wish to connect more items of equipment to your television
than your television has connectors to support (for example, the
FOXTEL iQ, plus a VCR, DVD player and/or games console). In this
circumstance the FOXTEL iQ can act as an AV switcher allowing the
television connector used by the FOXTEL iQ to be shared with another
item of equipment. This item is referred to as the ‘loop-through unit’
as it is connected to the back of the FOXTEL iQ rather than directly to
the television. Usually this is the VCR.
If you have a ‘loop-through unit’, you use the av button on the
FOXTEL remote control to switch between the FOXTEL iQ and the
loop-through unit.
1. To switch to a looped-through item of equipment, press av on
the FOXTEL remote control.
Once you have pressed av, all the buttons on the FOXTEL remote
control will be disabled, except FOXTEL and the FOXTEL Guide
buttons - tv guide, box office, active and planner.
2. To return to FOXTEL, press FOXTEL (or any of the FOXTEL Guide
buttons).
Notes
If you want to use the ‘loop-through’ facility, your TV must be
connected to the
TV SCART
connector on the FOXTEL iQ while the
loop-through unit (VCR for example) must be connected to the
VCR
SCART
connector on the FOXTEL iQ.
If you are using the FOXTEL iQ to record a digital programme, using
‘loop-through’ does
not
affect this. The recording will continue even
if you use your video recorder to watch a video on your TV.
If your setup does not include a looped-through item, then when
you press av on the FOXTEL remote control, your television will
display a blank screen. To return to FOXTEL, press FOXTEL.
If the FOXTEL iQ is not responding to the FOXTEL remote control,
it may be because the av button on the remote control has been
pressed. Press FOXTEL to reactivate the remote control.
