Configure the RF Bypass for Displaying Analog Channels While the Set-
Top Is Powered Off
Introduction
The Bypass When Off option determines whether the RF broadcast signals should
bypass the set-top and go directly to the TV when the set-top is powered off. When
the Bypass When Off option is enabled, subscribers can watch analog channels even
though the set-top is powered off. Without the set-top, subscribers cannot receive
digital channels. This function will work only on set-tops that have the Bypass switch
installed.
