ABOUT THE SMARTCARD AND CA MODULE
To be able to receive scrambled digital satellite channels you will need a Smartcard and/or a Common Interface CA (Conditional Access) module* from the Service Provider of your choice.
The Service Provider is the programme distributor.
If you are subscribing to services from more than one Service Provider, you might have to change between different Smart­cards and/or CA modules.
Please note that a Smartcard and CA module may only be valid for a single Service Provider and due to this, a specific range of channels.
The Smartcard and the CA module may also provide access to special menus not described in this manual. If so, please follow the instructions from the Service Provider.
Only ”free to air” channels are available without the Smartcard and/or the CA Module.
Note: The Smartcard and/or the CA module are distributed by your Service Provider.
After inserting the card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not remove it again, unless your Service Provider asks you to do so. This is important, because if your Service Provider wants to download new information to the Smartcard, the card has to be in the slot.
* Only use a DVB Standard Common Interface CA Module
Viaccess smartcard
Only for services coded with the Viaccess CA system.
• Insert your Viaccess smartcard fully into the left slot behind the lid of the front panel of the Mediamaster. The gold chip should face downwards and inwards.
