Introduction
Channel List Copy is intended for dealers and expert
users.
With Channel List Copy, you can copy the channels
installed on one TV onto another Philips TV of the same

consuming channel search by uploading a predefined
channel list on a TV. Use a USB flash drive of minimum 1
GB.

hardware type on the TV type plate on the back of the
