Instructions and manual for Sharp LC-32GA4E in Russian

Checking the ability to receive digital signals on a SHARP TV

First of all, you need to determine whether your device is capable of receiving a digital signal on its own or whether an external receiver is required. The fact is that Sharp Corporation is a Japanese company, so the TV may well be adapted only to the Japanese ISDB standard.

There are 2 simple ways to check:

Enter your model number in the Search field. If it is found, then the TV is 100% capable of receiving digital channels without the help of external set-top boxes.

If the TV was released after 2015:

• Let's look at the last letter. If you find a W or S there, mentally discard it - this is the code for the design option. We are interested in the previous one - E. It means that the model is adapted for continental Europe, to which Russia belongs according to television broadcasting standards.
• Let's look at the number behind it. This is where the type of built-in tuner is indicated. We need numbers 1 or 2: they mean support for terrestrial DVB-T2 (if 2, then at the same time also cable and satellite channels). If it is 0, the TV can only receive cable signals and the outdated DVB-T standard.

If the receiver was manufactured before 2015:

• 1st digit after letters LE. Indicates a series. Must be 8 or higher;
• 2nd digit after the letters LE. It indicates the year of development. The number must be no less than 3 - 2011. With earlier development, one cannot expect support for DVB-T2: mass broadcasting on this standard began only in 2011, and Sharp did not previously produce models capable of receiving such broadcasts.

What to do if your TV does not support digital TV

If it turns out that the existing model of the Sharp TV receiver is an old model and does not receive digital signals, you can act in several ways:

• Buy a new TV.
  Typically, legacy boxes do not support HD and other digital features. Yes, these are additional costs, but there is a second way.
• Buy a console.
  This option is good for relatively new TVs that are not equipped with a digital tuner. Connect the antenna and connect the set-top box correctly. There are also instructions for old Soviet TVs.

How to choose a remote control for Sharp TVs

The principle of selecting a remote control for a Sharp TV is no different from the principle of selecting a remote controller for any other TV. The recommendations below are universal and will be suitable for owners of different Sharp TVs and many others.

Selecting a remote control by model

Usually there is a manufacturer's logo on the front of the device, and on the back there is a sticker describing the specific TV model. For example, if the logo of the Japanese company Sharp is drawn on the front, and the model 14A2-RU is indicated on the back, then the TV remote control will be called Sharp 14A2-RU.

This information must be provided to a consultant in any store selling electronic equipment, and he will select the appropriate model.

The model is indicated on the remote control housing

Buying a universal remote control

If the above method does not help, it is recommended to buy universal remote control devices. Their operating principle is based on capturing the TV signal. This signal is a specific combination number that is deciphered by the remote control. This is how the device gains access to control the TV receiver.

When purchasing a universal remote control, look for your TV model in the list. If difficulties arise, consult with consultants. Our specialists will help you choose the most suitable product.

If the TV allows you to receive digital TV, the channels are configured as follows:

1. Open the "DTV" menu. This can be done by pressing the corresponding button on the remote control.

Another setting option, which is also used for cable TV:

1. Open the general menu using the corresponding button on the remote control.
2. In the window that opens, select the “TV” tab, press “OK” on the remote control.
3. In the new tab, you need to select the country “Russia” and the tuner mode: antenna (for terrestrial digital TV) or cable (for pay TV from a provider).
4. In the new tab, select the “Search for channels” line.
5. Indicate which ones to look for: digital only (DTV) or together with analogue (ATV and DTV).
6. After clicking “OK”, auto-tuning will begin and the results will be saved.

Adding local analogue TV channels

If, in addition to federal digital multiplexes, local analogue TV channels broadcast from the repeater, their reception can also be configured. To do this, do the following:

1. Open the menu;
2. Select “TV”;
3. Find “Analog Configuration” or similar item in the list of settings;
4. Go to Automatic Search mode (or similar).
5. Click OK.

To view analogue broadcasts, you may need to switch modes using the remote control.

Are they really universal?

Any remote control can be used with different models of TVs, players and air conditioners. Of course, there are exceptions. For example, what should you do if you can’t set up a universal remote control? How can I check if it fits a given device model? First, you need to look at the list of compatible models in the instructions for the remote control itself. If there are no instructions regarding this, and the connection cannot be established, the problem may be in both the remote control and the TV.

Deleting and sorting channels

There are two ways to sort channels:

• on new models - by going to the main menu, selecting “TV”, then “Settings” and the “Sorting” or “Editing channels” section. In this case, you can assign each program its own number;
• On older models there is no sorting function. In this case, manual configuration will be required. To do this, use the key to go to the channel being configured and use the + and – keys (volume control) to scroll through until the program you need appears.

Deleting channels is done using the same editing function. Necessary :

1. Enter the menu.
2. Select the “Editing Channels” tab.
3. Use the volume keys to move to the desired item.
4. Press the button on the remote control to select the delete mode (on some models there is a special yellow button for this).
5. Confirm deletion.
6. Save results.

Comparison of the original remote control with the universal one

There is no external difference between the two types of control devices. They differ only in the set of functions.

The first and main difference is that universal remote controls can be connected to a large number of devices and devices. They can be used simultaneously. For example, using one universal remote control you can turn on a TV, air conditioner, stereo system and any other electrical unit that allows remote control. The remote control will also allow you to control home theater functions, satellite dish and cable TV.

In addition, the cost of a universal remote control is lower than the original model, and the service life is usually longer.

For owners of older TV models, such a universal device will be a lifesaver if the original controller is lost. Original remote controls for previous years' models are simply not produced.

Where to go for questions related to DVB-T2?

There is now a government program to transfer the population from analogue TV to digital. In 2021, the broadcast of analogue channels will stop and 20 federal channels will be broadcast exclusively digitally. Therefore, converting TV equipment to digital broadcast reception is very important.

All TVs produced since 2013 have the DVB-T2 standard, which allows them to operate in the digital broadcasting standard. Most other users will have to purchase an additional digital set-top box. You will also need a decimeter antenna that will receive the signal.

If the user wants to watch both digital TV channels and those that remain in analog mode, then it will be necessary to purchase an all-wave antenna. For all questions related to connecting and setting up digital television, the RTRS hotline 8−800−220−20−02 is open . Also, all detailed information with the frequencies of both multiplexes for each region can be found on the website smotritsitru.rf.

The Japanese manufacturer Sharp has created a large number of popular TV models. They have their own setup nuances, but you can watch digital television on any of the brands. Modern models and TV Sharp with the Smart function have a built-in tuner for this. The rest must be supplemented with a digital set-top box. Setting up channels is done using the remote control and a few simple steps. In total it takes no more than 10 minutes.
