Preface
Dear customer,
this operating manual is intended to help you make the fullest use of the extensive range of functions
offered by your new satellite receiver.
We have tried to make the operating instructions as easy as possible to understand, and to keep them
as concise as possible. To help you understand particular specialist terms that cannot be translated,
we have added a short glossary at the end of the manual.
The power switch is an environmentally friendly feature. If you will not be using your receiver for an
extended period, you should use the power switch to disconnect it from the power supply and save energy.
For shorter breaks, you can use the remote control to switch the receiver to standby, which uses only a
minimal amount of energy.
We wish you good reception and hope you will enjoy using your new HDTV receiver.
Your
KATHREIN team

Difference between PAL and HDTV
The difference between PAL and HDTV
High-resolution TV is characterised by a signifi cantly higher number of picture lines on the TV set.
The usual European standard PAL achieves a resolution of 576 lines vertically and 720 lines
horizontally. High-resolution TV provides an impressive resolution, up to fi ve times higher than the usual
PAL standard TV, and hence delivering more detail sharpness and responsiveness.
A HDTV picture can contain up to fi ve times as many picture points, that is, approximately 2 million pixels
compared to a conventional PAL picture with only approximately 400,000 pixels.
Worldwide there are currently two HDTV standards, based on the two formats 1080i and 720p. The two
standards differ in the number of picture lines and in the transmission procedure. For the human eye,
the difference between the two HDTV standards is hardly perceptible, however; in comparison to the
PAL system, moving pictures look much more dynamic. Transmission technology and reception equipment
will be able to handle both standards in the future.
1080i 1920 x 1080
720p 1280 x 720
PAL 720 x 576

Safety Instructions - Important Notes
The channels available on the satellites and transponders are subject to continual change. If changes
do occur, the new channels have to be set on the receiver because the factory preset programming
corresponds to the status on the date of manufacture. The information for these settings can be found
on the Internet or in relevant magazines.
Your receiver was equipped in the factory with the latest software version at that time. We are, however,
constantly working on adapting the software to the wishes of our customers and to developments in
technology. Further information on this can be found in the sections “Main Menu - Service Menu”,
“Software Update”.
Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time. The receivers
are fragile due to their construction and are only adequately protected by the original packaging.
If the receiver is not shipped correctly the guarantee/warranty on it will be voided.
Any modifi cations to the receiver software, or the use of applications not provided by Kathrein, will
invalidate the warranty! You will have to bear the costs yourself for shipping and repairing any receiver
that requires attention due to modifi cations to the software and use of applications other than those
provided by Kathrein!
Therefore exclusively use only software and applications provided by Kathrein for your receiver. These
are available by downloading from the satellite or from our Internet pages (www.kathrein.de).
Make sure that the ventilation slots on the unit are not covered in any way.
Otherwise the unit may overheat.
There is a risk of fi re!

Connect the satellite receiver (HDMI or alternatively TV Scart socket) and the TV set using an HDMI or
Scart cable (see “Connection example”).
For system reasons, the same video signals are present at both the TV Scart socket and also the
video cinch output.
There are two ways you can access the digital audio.
HDMI
The stereo audio is transmitted to your TV set via the HDMI interface. If your TV set also supports
Dolby Digital, you can also receive the Dolby Digital audio via the HDMI interface (providing it is
broadcast by the channel provider). On this issue refer to the operating manual for your TV set.
S/PDIF Dolby Digital output
The S/PDIF output is intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital system (see “Advanced connection
example” in the technical appendix). Connect the S/PDIF output and the Dolby Digital system using an
appropriate cable.
If you want to play the sound on your hi-fi system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets
on the hi-fi system, using an appropriate cable (see “Advanced connection example” in the technical
appendix).

Refer to the documentation supplied with your system for the settings for the
SCR, frequencies and any PIN assigned to the tuner. You will fi nd there a printed
list showing the assignment between the various SCRs and the respective
