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.
All functions can be carried out using the buttons on the remote

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 call your service provider.
If you have got access to the Internet it is a good advice to visit
the Viasat homepage “www.viasat.se” now and then to get further information concerning the functions of the Mediamaster.

CONNECTION 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.

CONNECTION OF THE MEDIAMASTER
GB 11
This procedure is necessary only if your Mediamaster is connected to the TV with an RF lead.
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.
Tuning your TV to the Mediamaster
• Select a channel 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). If you are already using this channel, select another non occupied UHF channel between 21to
69 on the TV.
• For example, if you select UHF channel 45 on your TV, you
must change your Mediamaster to the same channel.
Use the or buttons on the front panel of the Mediamaster,
or on the remote, to change to the corresponding channel. You
will see the UHF channel number displayed on the front panel
of the Mediamaster.
• When you have correctly changed the UHF channel number
you will see the ”
Welcome
” menu on the TV screen.
If there is interference from other channels you will have to
change the chosen 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 digital TV/Radio channels.
• Once the welcome message is visible, press the OK button
on the Mediamasters remote control to start the installation
procedure.
If for some reason you have to change the RF channel later,
you can do this by using TV settings menu further on in this
manual.
If you have a VCR connected it must be tuned to a different
UHF channel (between 21 to 69) than the Mediamaster.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”
When RF connections are used
• Plug in your Mediamaster
• Now you will see the ”Welcome” menu on the screen.
• Press OK on the Mediamaster remote control to start the First
Time Installation procedure (see the next page).
