3Preparation
& Place the receiver box wherever you want, but make sure that air can
circulate freely through the ventilation slots. Do not install the receiver box in a confined space such as a book case or a similar unit. To prevent any unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on or in the vicinity. Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water. The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on it.
é Connect the supplied aerial cable 1 and the VGA cable with trailing audio
cinch connectors 2 as shown in the inside frontcover of this handbook. Make sure all screws of the cable 2 are tightened well.
TV receiver box with speakerless monitor
In case you connect your TV receiver box with a speakerless monitor, and without having connected an audio receiver, all references made in this instruction book to sound reproduction, volume control, and audio connections, are not applicable (except for a headphone connection). The keys on the remote control referring to sound have no function either.
To connect your computer, see the separate supplied instruction manual with
your monitor. To connect other peripherals, see p. 28. In order to obtain the best result, please use only the supplied antenna cables between the receiver box and videorecorder, and between videorecorder and antenna connector.
Insert the mains cord supplied 3 into the MAINS at the back of the monitor
and the mains cord 4 at the back of the receiver. Put both in the wall sockets.
( Remote control: Remove the cover of the battery compartment.
Insert the 2 batteries supplied (Type R6AA-1.5V). Press the TV key to be sure your remote control is in the TV mode.
The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmium. Nevertheless in many countries batteries may not be disposed of with your household waste. Please check on how to dispose of batteries according to local regulations.
§ Switch the TV on : Press the power key B at the right side of the
monitor and the one on the front of the receiver box. A green indicator lights up both on the monitor and on the receiver box and the screen comes on. If the indicator is red, press the -P+ key or one of the digit keys on the remote control.
The green indicator blinks every time you press a key on the remote control. When you switch on your set for the first time, the menu
LANGUAGE
automatically appears on the screen. The explanation appears in different languages one at a time. Follow the instructions on screen.

Preparation
To use the menus and the menu system
Attention: point the remote control to the indicator of the monitor.
& Press the MENU Ï key on the remote control to summon the main menu.
Which items appear in the main menu depends on the peripherals connected. In case of an EasyLink VCR the menu item VCR is present, see p. 28.
Note:The Main menu contains the item Exit to dismiss the menu, only when you
switch on your TV for the first time, or when the Main menu is summoned with the
MENU key in front of the TV receiver.
é Use the cursor in the up/down direction to select the TV, (DVD), (VCR),
(Receiver), Setup or Install menu.
Note: Sometimes not all the menu items are visible on the screen. Press the cursor
down to reveal all items.
Use the cursor in the left/right direction to select the menu item.Use the cursor up/down again to select the control you want to select or to
adjust. For instance, see Picture menu.
( Press the MENU Ï key again to turn off the main menu.
The menu system
Pipes, balls and a puck
The hierarchy of menus and controls is represented by an animated visual mechanism of pipes, balls and a puck. Unlike a map, however, the animated mechanism constantly shows the current whereabouts and continually expands the view of the immediate neighbourhood.
The puck represents the user’s point of focus, by surrounding the ball indicating the user’s current position in the menu hierarchy. The puck is always present when the menu system is displayed. The puck is divided into 4 wedge-shaped regions.They correspond to the directional controls (up/down, left/right) on the remote control.The arrows on the cursor indicate which directions to choose. In this way users can navigate through the menu hierarchy to arrive at the control they wish to adjust.
Pressing a valid key on the remote control shifts focus from the current ball to the next one connected by a pipe in that direction. Balls represent a branch of the menu hierarchy. All menu items are represented by balls. Each ball is identified with an identifying text label. When items (balls) of a menu level are more numerous than can fit comfortably on the TV display, only a portion of the items are shown as balls along the pipe.Those omitted are indicated by a cluster of balls which indicates that there are ‘more’.
Pipes connect balls together and show the path the user can traverse through the menu structure. Pipes represent individual branches of the menu hierarchy.
Interaction
Every pathway in the menu structure leads eventually to a point, where users can set levels, change values or adjust some aspect of system performance.
List controls
A list control is used to select one or more items from a list of options. For instance, the Picture format option list with 4:3, Movie Expand 14:9, etc. Press the right key to move the puck into the list. At least one item is the current value and is highlighted as such. Moving the puck up or down with the up/down key causes the list to move down or up. A single-value list allows only one item to be selected at one time and de-selects another.
