SAFETY INSTRUCTION
Please read the following instructions carefully
Do not overload the following wall outlets, extension cords or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or an electrical shock
Never allow liquids, sprays or other material to be exposed with the inside of the STB
Unplug the STB from the wall outlet before cleaning and use the soft cloth to clean the exterior
of the STB
The LNB cable must be earthed to the system that earthing for the satellite antenna
The parameter of using power source should be squared with which indicating on its rear panel, otherwise,
the machine will work improperly and even be ruined
To maintain the suitable antenna installation position, the proper antenna installation angle, the adequate
antenna earthing, the normal antenna anti-interference measure; Keep the earthing of the outdoor
antenna separating with the indoor equipment’s
Do not place the STB where it is exposed to sunlight directly or near a heater
Never stack other electronic equipment on top of the STB
Place the STB indoor properly to prevent lightening, raining and direct sunlight
The location where connecting with the connector plug of this machine should be served as the
disconnect device, and should be maintained on the state of power-supplying always
Protect the power line from being walked on or being squeezed particularly on plugs, convenience
receptacles (jack), and the spot where they exit from the apparatus
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Service is required when the machine has been
damaged in any case, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been dropped into or
objects have fallen into the interior, the machine has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
perform malfunctioning, or has been dropped on the ground, or other situations abnormally etc
Warning: This unit should only be maintained by the authorized and the regular trained technician; Opening
the cover or other attempts by the user to service this unit can lead serious injury or person-death from
electrical shock, and can increase the possibility of risk of fire

DiSEqC (Digital Satellite Equipment Control)
A standard through which it is possible to let a DiSEqC compatible receiver send a signal via the
RF cable to a switching device to switch between different LNBs or dishes. The DiSEqC uses the
22KHz signal to control the switching device.
EPG (Electronic Programme Guide)
A electronic program guide (EPG) that comes with the broadcast to a particular satellite, note that
every station fills the EPG differently or not, so differences in the EPG are not necessarily receiver errors.
Frequency
The number of cycles or events per one second, which is expressed in the unit of Hertz
FTA (Free-To-Air)
An unscrambled broadcast, which you can view without additional payments to a service provider.
Hi-Fi (High Fidelity)
The characteristics of audio devices that can perform all the audio frequencies to the human,
whose range is from 16Hz to 20KHz, uniformly from the low frequency to high frequency. Sometimes it is used to indicate high quality of an audio device such as CD player, etc.
LNB (Low Noise Block)
An electronic unit mounted on the satellite antenna. It receives the signal reflected by the dish
and converts them to signal that can be used by this product.
OSD (On Screen Display)
The function that displays the information about the monitor that the user needs or has to know
on the screen directly. OSD information probably includes brightness, contrast, tuning, RGB
adjustment, screen size, positions or other instructions else, etc.
OTA (Over The Air)
Means that software downloads where the manufacturer reserves the right to decide when and
where to release them through satellite system.
RF (Radio Frequency)
Frequencies occupied by radio waves of the total frequency range of electromagnetic waves.
