11. Software Update

11.SoftwareUpdate

In order to maintain proper performance of the product, it is essential to have the most up-to-date software. Visit the Humax website to check the latest news and newly released software versions.

http://www.humaxdigital.com.

It is recommended that you periodically check for the availability of software update.

11.1 OTA (Over the Air)

OTA, an abbreviation of Over–the-Air, is a standard for the transmission of software through a broadcast system.

OTA is simply an alternative method for downloading software versions. However, the manufacturers reserve the right for deciding the release of the software for their products by beaming the latest software versions over the air via satellite. Note that OTA is only limited to certain geographical regions mainly due to different antennas having different footprints(area where the signal can be received). The software update via satellite will only occur under the following circumstances.

1. The equipment should have appropriate loader software.

Caution: Please note that if normal loader software is not equipped, the product may not be updated or

operate properly after software update.

2. The manufacturer decides to release the software via a designated satellite.

3. The equipment must be tuned properly to the same antenna equivalent to that of the manufacturer.

4. Update software when the signal strength and quality is high. If the weather is not favorable, and the signal strength and quality are not recommendable, perform the software update later.

Caution:

• Please be careful to keep the power on and the power cord plugged in during software update. If the power is off during software update, fatal damage may be caused to the product.

• Please be careful not to pull out the signal line (LNB cable) during software update. Update may be interrupted and the product may not operate.

Note:

• It may take 5 ~10 minutes to update software. Other functions will not activate while software update takes place. You cannot schedule programmes during software update.

DiSEqC (Digital Satellite Equipment Control)

A DiSEqC compatible product relies on a switching box which detects the 22kHz tone pulsing rapidly on and off. In this way, a specially designed product can control numerous LNBs through a DiSEqC switching box.

EPG(Electronic Programme Guide)

An electronic equivalent to a printed television listings magazine; it is an application used with digital receivers and digital television sets to list current and scheduled programs that are or will be available on each channel, including a short summary or commentary for each program. The information supplied in the EPG is sent and updated by the channel broadcaster.

FEC (Forward Error Correction)

A technique for error control of data transmission.

Frequency

The property of a signal measured in cycles per second (=Hz).

FTA (Free- To-Air)

An unscrambled broadcaster allowing customers to view channels or services without paying any subscription.

Hi-Fi (High Fidelity)

The characteristics of audio devices that can play back all the audio frequencies a person can detect, which is the range of 16Hz and 20KHz. Sometimes it is used to indicate good quality of audio devices such as stereo tape products.

LNB (Low Noise Block)

A device that is mounted on an arm facing your satellite dish, focusing on satellite signals. A LNB converts signals received from satellite to a lower frequency and sends them to a satellite product via coaxial cable.

OSD (On Screen Display)

OSD displays the basic information necessary for the users to configure monitor or TV settings. OSD information may include brightness, contrast, tuning, RGB adjustment, and screen size and position.

OTA (Over The Air)

A standard for the transmission of software for equipment, through a broadcast system. Manufacturers reserve the right for deciding the release of the software for their products.

Polarization

The direction of the electrical and magnetic fields of a signal. Satellites use both vertical and horizontal polarisation. Means that a frequency can be used twice.

SCART

A 21-pin connector standard to connect two pieces of Audio-Visual equipment such as a TV and a VCR. Each device will have a 21-pin female connection; a cable with male connection at both ends is used for connecting the devices.

Smartcard

A chipcard the same size as a credit card which must be inserted into the digital receiver in order to descramble the TV signals.

S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface format)

A standard format for the transfer of digital audio signals. It allows the transfer of digital audio between two devices without any conversion to and from analogue, which could degrade the signal quality.

S-Video (Super-Video)

Sometimes referred to as Y/C video; a technology for transmitting video signals via a cable. It is a video signal transmission in which the luminance (brightness) and the chrominance (colour) signals are transmitted separately to achieve superior picture clarity.

Transponder

A satellite is divided up in parts called transponders. A transponder is one distribution section of the satellite. Each transponder can be used for distribution of several channels or services.
