Safety

This STB has been manufactured to satisfy the international safety standards. Please read the following safety precautions carefully.

MAINS SUPPLY : 190 - 250 V AC 50/60 Hz

OVERLOADING : Do not overload a wall outlet, extension cord or adapter as this may result

 

in fire electric shock.

LIQUIDS

: The STB shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no

 

objects filled with liquids, such as base, shall be placed on the apparatus.

CLEANING

: Disconnect the STB from the wall outlet before cleaning.

 

Use a light damp cloth(no solvents) to dust the STB.

VENTILATION : The slots on top of the STB must be left uncovered to allow proper airflow to the unit.

Do not stand the STB on soft furnishings or carpets.

Do not expose the STB to direct sunlight or do not place it near a heater. Do not stack electronic equipments on top of the STB.

ATTACHMENTS : Do not use any unrecommended attachments as these may cause hazard or damage the STB.

CONNECTION TO THE SATELLITE DISH LNB

:Disconnect the STB from the mains before connecting or disconnecting the cable from the satellite dish.

FAILURE TO DO SO CAN DAMAGE THE LNB.

CONNECTION TO THE TV

:Disconnect the STB from the mains before connecting or disconnecting the cable from the satellite dish.

FAILURE TO DO SO CAN DAMAGE THE TV.

EARTHING : The LNB cable MUST BE EARTHED.

The earthing system must comply with SABS 061.

LOCATION : Place the STB indoor in order not to expose to lightening, rain or sunlight.

Warning

HUMAX cannot be held responsible for any kind of problems caused by the use of unofficial software. The use of software versions other than HUMAX official software will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

It is advised that only the formal software released from HUMAX should be used in all HUMAX product range.

Caution

To watch Pay Per View programmes, be sure to inform your STB dealer of the STB’s and Smart card’s serial numbers. So that they can pair your STB with your Smart card. Otherwise, you cannot watch the programmes because they are scrambled.

Note

When the changed Network Information is sent, Nagravision realizes that the appropriate satellite/cable service information has been changed. And it will re-organize the service information based on the sent Network Information. The message “Network Information updated...” appears on the screen. It is automatically done when changing NIT.

The manufacturer can’t change it because it is provided by Nagravision.

When the user watches it, the message may suddenly appear during AV playback and simultaneously updating will proceed. (This happens about once a year.)

Since this is not an error in operating, do not turn off the power.

Information for TV-Cabo subscriber

When user searchs channels, the channel numbers from 001 to 100 are defined automatically for Nagravision by service provider.

Other channels have the number from 101 in sequence as the receiver searchs the signal.

Specifications are for NACI-5700 models.

Reference

1. Connect DiSEqC 1.0

All our receivers are designed to be DiSEqC 1.0 compatible. This allows multiple antennas to be connected to the STB simultaneously.

If you have two or more fixed antennas or LNBs, you can use a DiSEqC 1.0 switch.

1.Connect the coaxial cable from the first LNB to the LNB 1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC switch.

2.Connect the coaxial cable from the second LNB to the LNB 2 or LNB B input connector of the DiSEqC switch.

3.Do the same for other LNBs.

4.Connect one end of a Coaxial cable to the RF output connector of the DiSEqC switch and the other end to the LNB IN socket on the STB.

2. Connect DiSEqC 1.2

Please refer to page GB42.

The Locking Time might take longer than expected during the initial boot if the motorised system is set “enable” mode.

3. Connect a Satellite antenna

To the digital receiver, you can connect either a single satellite antenna directly or through converter box several antennas or LNB of multi-feed equipment.

You can connect a further Sat-receiver(for example analogue), with the receiver of common antenna equipment that has satellite signals.

Connect an antenna cable through converter boxes

1.When you assemble several antenna or a multi-feed equipment that has several LNB (or LNB with several exits), connect each cable from the antenna to a converter box.

2.Connect the output of converter box to “LNB IN”, as in example displayed.

3.When you use a converter box of 0/12V-steerage, connect it to the output “0/12V” additionally.

For converter boxes of 22KHzor DiSEqC-steerage, you can skip this point because the steerage signal occurs through the antenna cable.

4. Loop Through

If you have another analogue or digital STB and you wish to use the same LNB then you can connect it via the loop through. Connect one end of a Coaxial cable to the LNB OUT on the STB and connect the other end to the LNB IN on your second STB.

GB5

5. Connect a S/PDIF Fiber-Optic cable

If you are watching a programme with a Dolby Digital soundtrack(see page E14) you can enjoy the higher quality sound of the Dolby Digital audio by connecting the STB to an external Dolby Digital television or amplifier. Do this by connecting the optical S/PDIF output of the STB to the optical S/PDIF input of the external Dolby Digital product (television, amplifier,.....).

6. Software Upgrade

HUMAX digital set-top box is a highly sophisticated product - incorporating one of the best software applications.

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:

(a)set-top box to set-top box download(copies the software of the main unit into slave unit);

(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 through satellite system).

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 via satellite systems. Note that OTA is only limited to certain geographical regions mainly due to different satellites having different footprints(area where the signal can be received).

SUSS(TM) is an official trademark and logo for HUMAX loader software to perform OTA. The software upgrade via satellite system will only occur under the following circumstances:

1)the equipment should have appropriate loader software;

2)the manufacturer decides to release software downloading via a designated satellite system;

3)the equipment must be "tuned" properly to the same satellite that the manufacturer uses.

Note : CRCI-5500 complies with the OTA type of CryptoWorks.
