Manual channel search on your LG OLED55B7V
It may happen that after the automatic search, you no longer have your local channels or a main channel displays a black screen. No panic, manual channel search on LG OLED55B7V is your solution! However, it is a complicated manipulation that takes a little more time.
If you have an adapter, connect to the screen of your adapter as seen above, and then follow the steps below.

Retrieve channel’s canal number
To start the operation, you must have the canal number of the channel you wish to search manually on your LG OLED55B7V.
To do this, use the “My DTT coverage” search engine on the Ofcom official website.
Be careful, this is not the number you want to enter on the remote control to watch the channel but a canal number between 21 and 60 which indicates the frequency on which this channel is broadcast in your area.
You may then be able to watch it on your LG OLED55B7V.
Start manual channel search on LG OLED55B7V
Start by pressing “Menu” and go to “Configuration”.
It can also be called “Main Menu”, “System Menu”, “Tool Menu”, “Setting Menu”, or “System Settings”.
Then, select the “manual search” option and enter the canal number of the desired channel. Select “Ok” or “confirm”, or “exit”.
The hardest is done, you can now go check the presence of the channel on your LG OLED55B7V!
