How do I scan for channels on my Xumo TV

If you have a TV antenna, you can connect it to your Xumo TV to watch live broadcast channels.

Note: Xumo TV does not support QAM (cable input), you must use an antenna.

When you first set-up your TV, you’ll be prompted to connect an antenna if you have one. If you choose this option, you’ll get step-by-step instructions on your TV screen.

To connect an antenna after you have set up your TV:

1. Plug your antenna into your TV’s Antenna port
   • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions about where to place your antenna for the best signal
2. Turn on your TV (if it is off)
3. Navigate to Settings > Antenna and inputs > Antenna and choose Scan for channels
4. Follow the on-screen instructions, then select Scan for channels
5. Wait while your TV scans for channels – this can take several minutes
   • When the channel scan is finished, you’ll see the number of channels that were found
6. Select Continue

For more help setting up your TV, please reference the Xumo TV user manual and Quick Start Guide for your TV manufacturer here.
