PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY
Precautions
• Read this booklet carefully.
• Make sure the rating of your household electricity supply matches that shown on the back of the VCR receiver.
• Read this page to help you set up and adjust your VCR receiver.
• Do not put the VCR receiver in a hot or humid place (to avoid the risk of fire and electric shock).
• Do not open the VCR receiver.
• Do not connect the VCR receiver to the power supply if you have just moved it from a cold environment to a warm room. This can lead to condensation inside the video which can seriously damage the video and cassettes. Wait around two hours to allow it to reach room temperature.
• Make sure the video is placed at least 10cm apart from other home appliances or obstacles to get sufficient ventilation.
• This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on top of the video.
• Put the video on a steady, flat surface.
• Only clean the video with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use harsh or alcohol-based cleaning agents.
For your own safety!
• There are no components in this VCR receiver you can service or repair yourself.
• Do not open the case of the VCR receiver. Only allow a qualified engineer to repair or service your video.
• This VCR receiver is designed to work continuously. Switching it off (onto stand- by) does not disconnect it from the mains. To disconnect it from the mains, you have to unplug it.

SatcoDX
This product supports the channel update function of SDX (SatcoDX Industry Standard Protocol) compatible product. This function enables users to download their own channel list from PC to settop box by the program called "World of Satellites" distributed by SatcoDX.
USERS MUST PREPARE FOR THE FOLLOWINGS TO DO THIS.
- Windows compatible PC with serial connection terminal(Com Port)
- 9 pin female to female Null-Modem serial cable
THIS FUNCTION CAN BE USED AS FOLLOWS;
(PC means its operation from PC and Settop means its operation from satellite receiver)
PC
1
Download and install "World of Satellites" from the homepage of SatcoDX (www. satcodx. com)
2
Run "World of Satellites" program after understanding its using method and connect the serial cable between PC and Settop Box.
3
Configure the channel list you want and choose "Program Receiver" menu and open "SatcoDX Receiver Programming Wizard" dialog. The dialog set-up is as follows;

You can always change your menu settings on Main Menu easily.
2
You can check your receiver's version by pressing [red] color button on main menu.
At the ‘software Stand’, 4th and 5th digits express the Firmware Version. Likewise other products, higher number is the recent version.
SETTOP
1
Enter "User Installation" menu and press the [Green] button on remote control and open "SatcoDX Link" dialog.
Upon opening the dialog, Settop Box starts waiting the data transmission from PC and if this doesn’t occur after some time, it will inform the users of time out.
2
Click "Program Receiver" button to make the transmission started before the Settop dialog is Timeout.
3
If the data transmission is made in normal way, "SatcoDX Link" dialog will not be changed unless there is any transmission error. In case of transmission error or timeout, recheck the connection status of cable or PC set-up and restart the whole process from beginning.
4
If the data transmission is successfully made, "SatcoDX Link" dialog will display how many channels have been transmitted. The number of transmitted channel may be less than that in the channel list of PC and this is because Settop ignores the information on data channel and analog channel. When user push [OK] button and check if the data has been saved or not, all the satellite information and channel information seen before are deleted and its channel information will be restructured with the data transmitted through SatcoDX. If user wants to go back to the shipping status at the factory, "Factory Default" function can be used.
5
The channel information transmitted by using "World of Satellites" doesn’t include the detail set-up of each satellite. Therefore, user should enter "Channel Search" menu and change the LNB and DiSEqC set-up of each satellite appropriately and finally, check if transponder signal has been received or not by signal bar for the purpose of seeing its transmitted channel more conveniently.

5 SEARCH OPTION
This unit includes common interface function. So you cannot watch scrambled channels if you insert suitable cam module and smart card. If you may not want to search scrambled channels, you can skip the scrambled channels by checking [FTA Only] options on Channel Search option.
6 3-WAYS OF SEARCHING CHANNEL
If you choose [Search SAT], the receiver will search channels from the selected satellite on current menu.
If you choose [Search Multi-SAT], the receiver will search channels from the whole enabled satellite.
In case the satellite you want to receive is not on the sat­list, you can manually search by choosing [TP search].
Before you do the [TP search], check the frequency and symbol rate of the TP which you want to search channels from. On [TP search] process all we need are just the frequency and symbol rate. The satellite name is meaningless.
