INTRODUCTION

Toshiba HD-S25 Digital High Definition Receiver opens up to a new world of free-to-air

terrestrial HDTV (High Definition Television) and SDTV (Standard Definition Television)

programs. The receiver can receive channels from both VHF and UHF bands. All the

major terrestrial free-to-air station numbers currently available in your area are listed in

the on-screen menu. To watch a channel, simply select the channel number and you will

be accessing a wide range of high quality digital programs.

The receiver is fully MPEG 2 / DVB-T compliant, delivering high definition crystal-sharp

video and Dolby® Digital sound. As it supports a channel frequency range of

51-858MHz, it can be easily programmed for all the channels within the VHF and UHF

frequency bands. To find out the channel frequencies in your area, please contact your

local service provider.

FEATURES

HD 1080i Capability

High Definition (HD) brings a wide-screen format to the home television as well as a sharper picture.

This receiver corresponds with 1080i signal input and it fully recreates high definition screen quality.

Dolby® Digital¹

Dolby® Digital is the surround sound technology used in theatres showing the latest movies, and is now

available to reproduce this realistic effect in the home. You can enjoy motion pictures and live concert

TV programs with this dynamic realistic sound by connecting HD-S25 receiver to a 6-channel amplifier

equipped with a Dolby® Digital decoder.

Teletext/Fastext

Fastext is a method of viewing Teletext pages by related subjects grouped by the broadcast studio. You

can access any given topic shown on the screen simply by pressing the corresponding colored text

select button on the remote control. Note that the Fastext feature is not available in Australia.

PIP (Picture-in-Picture)

This feature gives you the ability to view 2 different channels at the same time. One program can be

viewed on the main screen while the other is simultaneously displayed in a smaller viewing window,

often positioned in one corner of the screen.

Still Picture Display

Allows you to take a snapshot of a video at a particular instant as a still picture.

Wide-screen Picture Format

Wide-screen is the term given to picture displays that have a wider aspect ratio than normal. For example, the

aspect ratio for conventional TVs is 4:3 and for wide-screen TVs is 16:9. This receiver supports broadcasts in

both formats.

Video Format Auto-Switch

The HD-S25 receiver has the capability of automatically switching the output video format to match the

native video format as sent by the broadcaster.

AUX

For people having TVs with only one set of Component Video inputs, this “AUX” feature allows you to

play your DVD movies via the “AUX INPUT” connectors located at the back of the HD-S25 receiver.

Manufactured under licence from Dolby Laboratories. Dolby and the double-D symbol are registered trademarks of Dolby

STEP C: SETTING UP YOUR RECEIVER

Note: If your service provider or antenna installer has already installed your TV system to receive

terrestrial TV programs, do not change any connections of those devices or installation settings

unless it is absolutely necessary.

If your receiver has not been configured by your service provider or system installer, it will not be

set up for any specific channel or frequency when powered on for the first time. In this case you

should follow the steps below to set up your receiver.

1. Switch on the TV.

2. Using your TV’s remote control, select the appropriate external Audio/Video input on your TV

according to the connection you have made in Step A.

3. Make sure the receiver is already in power-on mode. If it is in standby mode (i.e. front panel shows

“----“), switch on the receiver by pressing the “STANDBY/ON” button on the front panel of the

receiver or on the remote control.

4. A message “Database is Empty” should appear after a while. If you can see the message, go to

Step 5 directly;

channel will be shown.

ꢀꢁ When you see the message “>>> SCAN

COMPLETE <<<”, you have completed

tuning your receiver. If no channel is found,

please refer to “TROUBLESHOOTING” in

Appendix 2.

ꢀꢁ Press the “EXIT” button several times to

leave the Main Menu.

Note: The frequencies of the “quick scan”

channels are preset in the receiver’s

database. In case that the local TV station

changes the channel frequency or a new

channel comes up, you have to scan these

channels using “MANUAL SETUP”.

AUTO SCAN (For Australia Only)

The steps required to automatically program the receiver are outlined as below:

ꢀꢁ Highlight “AUTO SCAN” and press the

“ENTER” button to start channel search.

ꢀꢁ The receiver starts scanning from channel 2

to channel 69. The status bar shows the

progress being made.

ꢀꢁ Once a digital TV channel is found, the

channel number and program name will be

shown.

ꢀꢁ When you see the message “>>> SCAN

COMPLETE <<<”, you have completed

tuning your receiver. If no channel is found,

Note: Auto scan process may take about 18

minutes to complete.

please refer to “TROUBLESHOOTING” in

Appendix 2.

ꢀꢁ Press the “EXIT” button several times to

leave the Main Menu.

MANUAL SETUP

ꢀꢁ On the “INSTALLATION” page, highlight

“MANUAL SETUP” and press the “ENTER”

button.

ꢀꢁ Select channel number. Be sure you know

the channel number and its RF frequency.

You may refer to Digital TV channel table in

Appendix 1.

ꢀꢁ Press “ꢂ” button to highlight “Frequency”,

“Bandwidth” and “Priority” to make sure the

parameters are correct, then press “ꢂ”

button to highlight “Start Scan” and press the

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

“ENTER” button to start scanning.

ꢀꢁ If scanning is successful, “Start Scan” will change to “Get Channel Success” and signal quality will

be shown. At this point you can press “EXIT” to leave “MANUAL SETUP” or continue scanning

other channels.

ꢀꢁ

If scanning is unsuccessful, “Start Scan” will change to “Timeout Error”. At this point you can

rescan the signal or refer to the SIGNAL LEVEL bar and signal QUALITY for aligning the

direction of the antenna to get the signal. Please refer to your antenna installer if problem

persists.

Notes:

1. For Australia, the BANDWIDTH should be 7MHz.

2. The PRIORITY should be set to “HIGH” for Australia.

3. SIGNAL LEVEL refers to the input RF signal strength as perceived by the receiver. Please

note that too strong a signal may cause erroneous readings. If you use an antenna booster

and find that you still get a low signal level, your booster gain may be set too high. In this

case, please adjust the gain accordingly.

You may also see the OSD “Bad or No Signal” or “Weak Signal” when the signal level is low.

QUALITY refers to the quality of the received digital signal. A high value of quality means that

there are few errors in the signal. In the same way, a low value of quality implies that there

are a large number of errors in the signal, which may cause distortions in video and audio.

SNR is the signal-to-noise ratio. A high SNR value means that you have a reasonably good

reception (good signal level and good quality).

RESET DATA

Use this function when you want to clear channel data and reset the password to default (“0000”).

This function is to be used under any one of the following circumstances:

1. When the “Region Selection” menu does not appear on step 6 of page 20;

GLOSSARY

APPENDIX

* Aspect Ratio: It is the ratio of the width of the screen to the height. The two relevant digital TV formats

are 16:9 (wide-screen) or 4:3 (the traditional screen ratio). 16:9 is more ergonomically suitable for the

human eye.

* Bandwidth: It is the frequency range that allows for carrying a certain radio signal.

* Coaxial Cable: A type of cable used to transmit high frequency signals e.g. from the VHF/UHF

antenna to the terrestrial Digital TV receiver.

* Composite Video: There are three elements of the video system: First - the "active video" which

means the picture to be displayed on the screen and its associated colors; second - the "sync" decides

where to place each pixel on the screen; third - the "blanking” tells the display when to turn off the

electron beam so no retrace across the screen. These three elements combined together is called

"composite video" when connecting to a display through connectors.

* Crop: A wide-screen 16:9 picture that is cut on both left and right to fit a 4:3 TV screen.

* Dolby® Digital: Dolby® Digital is a method of transmitting and storing multi-channel soundtracks via

newer digital media such as DVD, digital cable, digital TV (DTV), and satellite transmissions.

* DVB⁵: Abbreviation for "Digital Video Broadcasting". An international organization created in October

1993, whose primary objective is to achieve a common framework for all technical platforms of digital

broadcasting systems including DVB-C (cable), DVB-S (satellite) and DVB-T (terrestrial), etc.

* EPG: Stands for "Electronic Program Guide". It is an application that allows viewers to navigate

through the large number of channels offered by digital TV broadcaster and selects the desired

services.

* Frequency: The property of a signal measured in cycles per second (=Hertz).

* Letterbox: The picture with aspect ratio 16:9 in a 4:3 TV screen with blank lines on top and bottom. It

is the means to watch a wide screen TV program on a 4:3 TV screen.

* Megahertz (MHz): Millions of cycles per second, which describes frequencies of radio wave or electric

current.

* Mini D-Sub 15-pin Cable: A type of video cable used to carry analogue RGB video signals.

* OSD: Stands for "On Screen Display". It provides clearer menu functions by using the TV or monitor to

display the menu while the controls are on the remote control.

* PAL: Stands for "Phase Alternating Line", the European video standard that has the image format of 4

by 3, 625 horizontal lines, 50Hz field frequency and a total 8 MHz of video channel width.

* Pillarbox: The picture with aspect ratio 4:3 in a 16:9 TV screen with black masking bars on the left and

right. It is a way to watch a standard 4:3 picture on a wide-screen TV.

* RF Channel: Radio Frequency Channel, for instance channel 28 for SBS Network in analogue TV

transmission. However, in digital TV, one RF channel may carry 4 to 6 sub-channels like SBS HD and

SBS Digital.

* RGB: Stands for Red, Green and Blue. RGB video is the highest quality video currently used in the AV

industry.

* S-Video (also called Y/C): The standard for the way a video signal is carried on the cable. Y

Trade Mark of the DVB Digital Video Broadcasting Project (1991 to 1996)

represents brightness and C represents color. S-Video cables have separate wires for the color and

brightness so it offers a better picture quality than the composite video.

* VHF: Stands for "Very High Frequency", starts from 30 to 300MHz corresponding to channels 2-12,

including Bands I, II and III.

* Video format: It is the picture resolution of the video defined as number of pixels per line x number of
