About the smart card and CA module

General

To be able to receive terrestrial scrambled digital channels you will
need a CA module and a smart card from a Service Provider.

There are a few different CA modules on the European market.
Each one of the CA modules support a certain kind of encryption
system. The Mediamaster supports CA modules which are made
to work according to the DVB standard. Depending on which
country you use the Mediamaster in, your local dealer will pro­vide you with the right type of CA module.

Please note that a smart card may only be valid for a single Serv­ice Provider and due to this, a specific range of channels.

The smart card and the CA module may cause special menus, not
described in this manual, to appear. Follow the instructions from
the Service Provider.

Note: CA modules and smart cards are only distributed by Serv­ice Providers and special distributors, not by Nokia.

After inserting a card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not re­move it again, unless you will be asked to do so. This is impor­tant because, for example, if your Service Provider wants to
download new information to the smart card, the card has to be
in the slot.

Connecting the Mediamaster

The box for your Mediamaster should contain the following items:

•the Mediamaster

•remote control with 2 AAA batteries

• SCART cable (fully connected; 1,0 metre)

• mains cable

• RF cable

• Owner’s manual with software license agreement

About the SCART sockets

The rear panel of the Mediamaster is equipped with 2 SCART
sockets (see diagram). When you connect other devices to any
of these sockets, always use fully connected SCART cables (as
the one supplied.) There are SCART cables available which do not
have all the pins connected. The picture quality could be reduced
if you use them.

Preparing the remote control

• Remove the cover on the battery compartment at the bottom
of the remote control.

•Insert the 2 AAA; 1,5 V batteries, as shown in the diagram, tak­ing care to observe the + and - markings indicated inside.

• Replace the cover.

GB 12

Connecting the Mediamaster

About the digital transmission

Digital Radio and TV signals can be blocked by buildings, moun­tains and the terrain. Depending on if the receiver is located in a
depression in the ground, behind a mountain or in a concrete
building, the quality of reception may vary considerably.

Reflections can be used for reception by directing the aerial to­wards a mountain or a high building, providing that they do not
block the transmitter.

As with most other transmissions, bad weather does affect the
reception quality negatively.

Connecting to the TV aerial

You can connect the Mediamaster to the following type of aerials:

1. Standard outdoor aerial

Where possible, use an outdoor roof aerial intended for receiv­ing UHF channels between 21 and 69.

Please note the following:

• In some block of flats, the roof-mounted aerial system includes
a filter and channel selector. If so, the aerial will probably not
work with the Mediamaster. Please consult the landlord.

•Many older roof-mounted aerials may only receive a limited
number of channels. As a result, digital channels transmitted
on higher frequencies are difficult or even impossible to re­ceive. The problem can be solved by replacing the roof aerial.

• Some outdoor aerials are directed towards an analogue trans­mitter. The aerial must be directed towards a digital TV trans­mitter.

• It is not always advisable to position the aerial as high as pos­sible. If problems arise, experiment with different aerial
heights.

2. Indoor and window-mounted aerials

This type of aerial may be enough if the reception conditions are
very good. If an indoor aerial is used, please note the following:

• Use an aerial for UHF channels 21 - 69, such as a directional
aerial.

•Place the aerial by the window and directed towards the TV
transmitter, if possible.

• The Nokia aerial with an amplifier is recommended as it may
provide a stronger signal.

• The strength of the TV signal varies according to reflections
from e. g. buildings. The signal penetrates thick stone or con­crete walls poorly. However, a wooden building is not a big bar­rier to digital TV signals.

GB 13

Connecting the Mediamaster

General

There are many different types of TV/VCR and other equipment
that you can connect to the Mediamaster.
In this manual you will see some of the most common ways to
connect your equipment.

If you have problems with your connections and need help, con­tact your dealer.

Connecting the Mediamaster to the TV

• Connect a SCART cable between the main SCART socket on
the TV and the TV SCART socket on the Mediamaster.

• Connect an RF cable from the TV/VCR output on the Media­master to the RF input socket on the TV.

• Connect the TV aerial to the TV AERIAL input socket on the
Mediamaster.

SCART

Connection of a video recorder

• Connect a SCART cable between the main SCART socket on
the TV and the TV SCART socket on the Mediamaster.

• Connect an RF cable from the TV/VCR output on the Media­master to the RF input socket on the video.

• Connect the TV aerial to the TV AERIAL input socket on the
Mediamaster.

• Connect an RF cable from the TV/VCR output on the video to
the RF input socket on the TV.

•Connect a SCART cable between the TV SCART socket on the
video and the AUX SCART socket on the Mediamaster

GB 14

RF

video

SCART

Connecting the Mediamaster

Connecting a HiFi system

• Connect an RCA/Cinch stereo cable from the AUDIO L R sock­ets on the Mediamaster to the LINE, AUX, SPARE or EXTRA
input sockets on your HiFi system.

• If available you can connect an RCA/Cinch single cable from
the DIGITAL AUDIO socket on the Mediamaster to a HiFi sys­tem equipped with digital audio input. This output is also used
for connection to an external Dolby™ digital decoder.

Note: To avoid interference you must use screened audio ca­bles. Never connect digital output to any analog input.

Procedure when RF connections are used

This procedure is necessary only when your Mediamaster is
connected to the TV with an RF lead and no SCART leads are
used.

To tune your TV to the RF signal you might also need your TV
manual in addition to this manual. The steps below explain what
to do if you have been unable to use SCART leads in your con­nection.

•Plug in your Mediamaster to the mains.

RF

Tuning your TV to the Mediamaster

• Select a programme number on the TV that is not currently
used for other TV channels.

• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to tune the TV chan­nel selector to UHF channel 43 (this is the Mediamaster’s fac­tory preset UHF channel).

• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to store this UHF chan­nel as the channel used by your Mediamaster. You will have to
select it when you want to watch terrestrial digital TV channels.

• When the First time installation menu is visible, press the
Select button on the Mediamasters remote control to start the
installation procedure.

If the picture quality is bad you can later change the predefined
UHF channel 43 to any other figure between 21 and 69. You will
also have to tune your TV to the same (= the new) channel
number. Please see RF modulator output channel setting on
page 30.

When you have a VCR connected it must be tuned to a different
UHF channel (between 21 to 69) than the Mediamaster.

Viewing images received from an external
device. (Bluetooth connection)

General

230 T is equipped with a built in Bluetooth module that makes it
possible to receive, watch and also save digital images transmit­ted from an external device. This device must be equipped with
the Bluetooth Standard Version 1.1 and “Object Push Profile”.
No cables are necessary as the transmission is wireless. The dis­tance between the transmitting device and the 230 T should not
exceed 10 meters to ensure good transmission.

Before the 230 T can start to receive images, some settings have
to be made. Refer to Control folder ☛ Connections.

About the Images folder in the Navi Bars

Received images can be saved into a folder named Images.
This folder will automatically be created in the Navi Bars as soon
as you save your first picture. You save a received image by press­ing select, delete it by pressing back.

You can watch images up to 256 Kbyte size. The Image folder can
contain 36 images of max size 64 Kbyte/image. Please note that
only JPEG images with VGA resolution of max. 640 x 480 pixels
are supported.

Images in the folder will be visible as “Thumbnails”. To start
watching an image, mark it in the Image folder and press select
on the remote control. While watching an image you can select
another by pressing cursor up/down. You also have the possi-
bility to delete the image you are watching by pressing opt, or
all images by pressing txt. If you delete all images, also the Im­age folder will disappear from the Navi Bars. A new one will be
created the next time you save an image.

You stop watching an image by pressing back.

Control folder ☛ Connections

Connectivity

Yes The Bluetooth function is enabled and the receiving of im-

ages is possible.

No The Bluetooth function is disabled and the receiving of im-

ages is not possible.

Selecting Ye s also means that the external device during its
searching for a suitable Bluetooth receiver to send images to,
should be able to find the 230 T. If it does not find it, the reason
might be that No is selected.

GB 26

Navi Bars

Local device name

The 230 T is named Mediamaster on this line. This is also the
name the external device will find during its search procedure.
You can enter another name with the number buttons on the re­mote control. Press any number button and a keyboard will be
shown on the screen.

How to enter a new name, please refer to page 23.

Bluetooth passkey

The very first time you want to send an image to the 230 T a pass­key has to be entered in the transmitting device. By default this
passkey is set to 123456789 on this line. It is highly recom-
mended to change it immediately. The length of the passkey
must be at least 8 and max. 16 characters.
The reason to change the key is, that if e.g. your neighbour also
has a 230 T and neither you nor the neighbour has changed the
123456789, you may send pictures to each others boxes!

Paired devices

Will show how many external devices that have access to the
box. You can prevent all external devices from having access to
the box by pressing info. To get new access to the 230 T you have
to enter the passkey again.

Restrictions

is indicated on the Type label on the underside of the box with
the symbol shown below.

Troubleshooting

Problem

The LED on the front panel does
not light up/is not lit.

The left LED is shining red

The remote control is not working.

You have forgotten your PIN code.

During the first time installation
when the Mediamaster tries to find
and store channels you get the
message “No channels found”.
When only very few of the ex­pected number of channels are
found.

Possible causes

Mains cable is not connected.

The Mediamaster is in standby
mode.

Battery exhausted.
Remote control is incorrectly
aimed.

The aerial is not properly connected
to the Mediamaster.
The aerial is not correctly directed
towards the transmitter.

There are no terrestrial digital trans­missions in the area.

What to do

Check that the mains cable is
plugged into the power socket.

Press the standby button to bring the
Mediamaster out of standby mode.

Change both batteries.
Aim the remote control at box.
Check that nothing blocks the front
panel.
