GENERAL OPERATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER

Throughout this manual you will notice that the everyday opera­tion of your Mediamaster is based on a series of user friendly on­screen displays and menus. These menus will help you get the
most from your Mediamaster, guiding you through installation,
channel selection, viewing and many other functions.

All functions can be carried out using the buttons on the remote
control, and some of the functions can also be carried out using
the buttons on the front panel.
If at any time when using the menus (except Installation and
Reinstall) you want to return to the normal TV/Radio mode, press
the EXIT button.

The Mediamaster is easy to use, always at your command and
adaptable for future advances.

Please be aware that new software may change the functional­ity of the Mediamaster.

Should you experience any difficulties with the operation of your
Mediamaster, please consult the relevant section of this manual,
including the Problem Solving, or alternatively call your dealer or
a customer service adviser.

Please note: The first thing to do before sending the Media­master to service is to:

1 Perform the ”Diagnostic” procedure in System Information

menu.

2 Try downloading new software into the Mediamaster.

With this procedure, the new software may solve the problem
in the quickest and most efficient way. See the relevant sec­tion ”Receiver Upgrade” further on in this manual.

• Allow clear space around the Media-

master for sufficient ventilation.

• Do not cover the Mediamaster or place
it on a unit that emits heat.

• Use a soft cloth and a mild solution of
washing-up liquid to clean the casing.

• Never allow liquids, spray or other materi­als to come into contact with the inside of
the Mediamaster.

• Do not connect or modify cables when the
Mediamaster is plugged in.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

• Do not remove the cover.

• Do not allow the unit to be exposed to hot,
cold or humid conditions.

• Service should be carried out only at a Nokia
Authorised Service Centre.

• Please note that the only way to isolate the
Mediamaster completely from the mains
supply is to unplug the mains lead!

ABOUT THE SMARTCARD AND CA MODULE

PIN Code

The Smartcard is loaded with a 4-digit code, also called a PIN code
(Personal Identification Number).

You will be asked to enter this code in order to get access to some
of the functions in the Mediamaster.

Note! The gold chip
must be on the under-

side and inwards on the
smartcard

The Mediamaster box has access to scrambled TV/Radio chan­nels based on the embedded Nagravision system. To be able to
receive these scrambled digital channels you will need a special
Smartcard distributed by your Service Provider.
The Service Provider is the programme distributor of the cable
channels.

It is also possible to connect a separate CA (Conditional Access)
module to the box. The CA module makes it possible to receive
other scrambled channels (if transmitted on the cable net.)
This module is equipped with its own Smartcard and may create
special menus not described in this manual. If so, please follow
the instructions within these menus or from the Service Provider.

Only some ”free” channels may be available without the Smart­card (or the CA Module.)

After inserting the Smartcard, 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, the card has to be in the slot.

How to insert a Smartcard

• Insert your Smartcard fully into the left-hand lower slot be­hind the lid of the front panel of the Mediamaster. The gold
chip should face downwards and inwards.

• The upper slot is intended for future services such as bank
services and others.

About the CA Module

• Follow the instructions delivered together with the CA mod­ule. Use only a DVB Standard Common Interface CA Module

• Insert the module fully into the right-hand slot behind the lid
of the front panel.

• Press the grey button on the front panel if you need to remove
the CA module.

following items:

• the Mediamaster

• a remote control with 2 AAA batteries

• a SCART lead (fully featured 1,0 metre)

INSTALLATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER

About the SCART sockets

• The rear panel of the Mediamaster is equipped with 2 SCART
sockets (see diagram). When you connect other products

to any of these sockets, always use fully featured SCART
leads (as supplied). There are “less well specified” SCART

leads on the market and picture quality could be reduced if you
use them.

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.

Connecting the Mediamaster

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 use RF leads you will have to tune your TV and VCR to the
Mediamaster output channel (see page 12).

GB 9

Connecting the Mediamaster to the TV

As most local cable network are distributing TV programmes from
both digital and analogue sources, the signal from the wall net­work socket will be of the two different kinds:
a Digital signal information to be handled by the Mediamaster.

These signals are sent to the TV through the SCART leads.

b Analogue signals which bypass the Mediamaster through RF

leads.

Due to that you must connect the Mediamaster and the VCR
to the TV as discribed below.

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

• Connect an RF lead between the TV/VCR output on the Media­master and the TV aerial input on your TV.

• Connect an RF lead between the TV AERIAL input socket on
the Mediamaster and the network socket.

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 your HiFi
or Dolby Pro Logic system.

Note: To avoid interference you must use a screened video
cable.

Connecting an Satellite Receiver and VCR

1 Connect a SCART lead between the main SCART socket on

the TV and the TV SCART socket on the Mediamaster.

2 Connect a SCART lead between the TV SCART socket

on the satellite receiver and the AUX SCART socket
on the Mediamaster.

3 If your TV is equipped with two SCART connectors

and the VCR also has a SCART; always use the second
SCART to connect the VCR to the TV.

4 Connect an RF lead from the RF output on the VCR to the TV

aerial input on the TV.

5 Connect an RF lead from the RF output on the satellite re-

ceiver to the RF input socket on the VCR.

6 Connect an RF lead from the TV/VCR output on the Media-

master to the RF input socket on the satellite receiver.

7 Connect an RF lead between the TV AERIAL input socket on

the Mediamaster and the network socket.

8 Connect the coaxial cable between the LNB and the LNB

socket on the satellite receiver.

Both the VCR and the satellite receiver must be tuned to dif­ferent UHF channels than the Mediamaster when using RF­connectors.

stallation procedure.

You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”

Switching on for the First Time with SCART Connections

Before you connect the box to the mains supply make sure the

During this time the box will not respond to any commands!

When you connect the box to the mains supply it will always
check if a new software*) is available.

Different values, e. g. E406, E001 a. o. alternatly with
— — — — , will be shown on the display during the check pro­cedure.

If a new software is found it will be automatically downloaded.
The procedure will take a few minutes. Do not disconnect the
mains cord or any other cables in the system during the process.

If you connect the box for the first time: After a successful check
(and a possible new download) you will get the “Welcome” menu
on the TV screen.

You are now ready to continue with the “First time installation”
