Software
Software Upgrade
Humax digital set-top box is a highly sophisticated product - incorporating one of the best
software applications avalable. Whenever a problem is found with this software or, in fact,
extra functions or enhanced applications are added, the software in the equipment has
to be upgraded.
In order to maintain proper performance of the product, it is essential to have the most
up to date software.
The latest news and release of software versions may be found at Humax website http://www.humaxdigital.com.
It is recommended that users register to HCSA (Humax Customer Service Area) and
periodically check for the availability of software upgrade.
There are three methods to upgrade the software :
set-top box to set-top box download (copies the software of the main unit into slave unit);
(a)
(b) pc to set-top box download (downloads the software directly from pc to the model
requiring upgrade);
(c) OTA over-the-air (downloads the software where the manufacturer reserves the right to
decide when and where to release over the air).
Over The Air (OTA) is simply another alternative for downloading software versions.
However, the manufacturer reserves the right to decide when and where this software
upgrade can take place by "beaming" latest software versions over the air.
SUSS (TM) is an official trademark and logo for Humax loader software to perform OTA.
The software upgrade will only occur under the following circumstances:
1) the equipment should have appropriate loader software;
2) the manufacturer decides to release software downloading;
3) the equipment must be "tuned" properly to the OTA channel that the manufacturer uses.

General
Picture and sound
Digital TV is a transmission technology that replaces the traditional analogue technique.
This means that several TV channels, radio channels and other digital services can be
transmitted on the same space as just one channel took up before. As a consumer you
get access to many more channels and services than before at the same time as they are
received with perfect picture and audio quality
The digital-TV-receiver (Set-Top-Box) converts the digital signal into a format that is suitable
for your TV and sound system.
Connecting your Set-Top-Box is just as simple as connecting for example a video recorder.
You get the best picture quality by using a SCART-cable for connection to your TV-set. The
best audio experience is obtained by connecting an optical cable to your sound system.
Scrambled transmissions
The content or some parts of the content transmitted in the terrestrial network may be
scrambled. For this your Set-Top-Box is equipped with two slots for the possibility to connect
two separate de-scrambling modules (Conditional Access Modules). Module, smart-card
and subscription may be obtained from your local dealer or directly from the service
provider.
Coverage
Before buying this product it is anticipated that you have made sure that there are digital
transmissions covering your region.
English
Antenna / Signal source
Depending on the reception your Set-Top-Box may be connected to a simple indoor antenna
or to an existing outdoor antenna system. If you live in a flat you should make sure that
the digital terrestrial signals are distributed to your wall antenna outlet. If you have your own
antenna system you must make sure that it is equipped with antennas, filter and/or amplifier
that can handle those frequencies that the digital channels are transmitted on.
Cable-TV
Please observe that this Set-Top-Box is not designed for the reception of regular digital
cable-TV signals (QAM-signal). Despite this, operators of smaller cable networks may have
chosen to distribute the digital terrestrial signals (COFDM-signal) in the network. In this case
this Set-Top-Box may well be used.
Check with your landlord if you are insecure about what type of TV-signal that is provided
in the wall antenna outlet
Connecting more receivers to the same antenna
If you have another analogue or digital STB and you wish to use the same RF Signal. In this
case you can connect it via the loop through. Connect one end of a RF cable to the TV/VCR
on the STB and connect the other end to the RF (ANT) on your second STB.

TV & other equipment
Example 1
In this example a TV set is connected to the digital
receiver. If possible the TV should be connected
with the digital receiver through a Scart cable.
If the TV doesn’t have a Scart connection
or if you want to connect a second TV to
the digital receiver, the UHF output of the
modulator may be used.

Example 2
In example 2 a VCR and a hifi stereo components system are connected to the digital
receiver in addition to the TV. The VCR
should be connected through a Scart cable.
In this example the hifi stereo components
system is connected with the digital receiver
through the analogue Cinch connections.
S/PDIF Fiber-Optic Connection
(Dolby Digital AC3)
If you have a digital audio set with a fiber
optic S/PDIF input, you will be able to enjoy
the high quality hifi sound with your receiver.
The digital amplifier or the pc card should be
connected with the receiver through a fiber
optic cable. Please be aware of the fact that
this output is fully suitable for Dolby Digital
5.1 (AC3) and that you can take advantage of
all of the home cinema’s possibilities.

Example 3
In this example the terrestrial digital receiver is
operated together with the satellite receiver. Both
of the receivers should be connected through a
Scart cable. Plug the Scart cable of the satellite
receiver into the VCR Scar t of the DVB-T receiver.
As soon as the satellite receiver is turned on, its
audio and video signals will be looped through the
terrestrial digital receiver.
