Receiving digital satellite channels
In order to use your new DSR 1773 CY digital receiver you need a
digital-compatible satellite antenna, which must be installed and aligned to the satellites (for example Astra and EutelSat/Hotbird).
Unlike broadcasts of analog satellite channels, not every digital TV or
radio station is assigned to one transmission frequency, but several TV
and/or radio stations are broadcast by one transponder.
To help you with the choice and settings for satellite channels, a
selection of TV and radio stations have already been programmed
for this device. You can start a channel search to ensure that any
new satellite channels are available on your device.
How this works and what you need to remember can be found on
page 35 of this operating manual.
Of course, you can easily program new satellite channels. You can
find the latest transponder information on the teletext pages of
various broadcasters, in a current satellite TV magazine or on the
internet.

Special features of your digital receiver
This digital receiver DSR 1773 CY has a built-in digital receiver unit for
satellite channels. The receiver unit converts the signals from digital
satellite channels to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
The DSR 1773 CY digital receiver can receive and process encrypted
and all unencrypted digital channels.
So that your new digital receiver always works with the latest program
data and operating software, it is first necessary to conduct an update.
Using the Astra 19.2° East satellite, you can update the device software
of the satellite receiver. How this works and what you need to remember
can be found on page 40 of this operating manual.
The TV guide tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and also
provides an overview of all the channels’ schedules for the next few
hours.
Detailed information on individual television programmes is available at
the touch of a button.
This digital receiver has a very comprehensive, user-friendly menu
system. The menu is displayed on the television screen, and the functions
of the remote control buttons are explained.

Initial setup
There are several way to set stations on your Digital Satellite
Receiver.
In option 1
you select the menu language for your device, the country in which
your digital satellite receiver is situated and any alterations required
for your TV device.
The digital satellite receiver is already pre-programmed with stations of
the Astra 19.2° East sattelite. No further settings are necessary.
The pre-programmed stations are transferred to the channel list.
Use option 2
if you wish to receive stations from various satellites and are familar
with the configuration of the reception system (antenna, LNB frequencies, multiswitch).
The settings are described on page 15.
Searching for new stations
New satellite channels are frequently added or satellite data is
changed. Therefore we recommend that you start an automatic
search from time to time on the digital receiver.
The settings are described on page 35.
If the station search does not find a particular station automatically,
it can search for it using the manual search. To do this all the parameters for the station must be correctly entered. You can find the
latest transponder information on the teletext pages of various broadcasters, in a current satellite TV magazine or on the Internet.
These settings are described on page 36.
