7. Connecting Your System
There are four ways to connect the receiver to your existing TV system. We recommend using one of
the following cases for the best result:
1. If you have a high definition television set, you should use a HDMI cable for best result, Plug one
end of the cable into the HDMI socket on the receiver, and the other end into the matching socket on
your television. In this case, you do not have to make audio connections because the HDMI connector
can output stereo audio or Dolby digital audio.
2. Connect one end of SCART cable to the TV (SCART) jack on the back of the receiver and the other
end to a SCART jack on your TV.
3. Connect one end of RCA cable to the RCA jack on the back of the receiver and the other end to a
RCA jack on your TV.
4. You will need to obtain a component video Cable (RCA cable) to use the component video
connector, Plug one end of the Cables into the Y(Green), Pb(Blue) and Pr(Red) Sockets on the digital
receiver, and the other end into the matching sockets on your television.
10
Finally connect the coaxial cable from the LNB to the LNB IN jack on the receiver.
With External Audio / Hi-Fi System
To connect any external Audio Hi-Fi system, the receiver has been provided with two RCA connectors
at the back of the receiver marked with Audio L and R.
Connect an RCA stereo cable from the AUDIO L, R jacks on the back of the receiver to the LINE,
AUX, SPARE OR EXTRA input jacks on your Hi-Fi System.
7.1 TV with Motorized System (DiSEqC 1.2)
Connect one end of your coaxial cable to the LNB IN connector on the receiver and the other end to
the REC or Receiver connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor.
Connect the coaxial cable from the LNB to the LNB connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor.
All our receivers are designed to be DiSEqC 1.0 and DiSEqC 1.2 compatible.
This allows multiple antennas to be connected to the receiver at the same time.
If you have two or more fixed antennas or LNBs, then we recommend you use a DiSEqC 1.0
switch.
Connect the coaxial cable from the first LNB to the LNB 1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC
switch.
Do the same for any other LNBs that you have.
Connect one end of a coaxial cable to the RF output connector of the DiSEqC switch,
connect the other end to the LNB IN socket on the receiver.
To the digital receiver, you can connect either a single satellite antenna directly or LNB of
multi-feed equipment.
