1.3.2 Connecting Your TV with Motorized System

Using DiSEqC 1.2

There are two ways to connect the receiver to your existing TV system.

Use one of the following cases for the best result:

■ Connect a video cable between VIDEO output jack on your receiver and VIDEO input jack on the TV. Connect an audio cable between AUDIO (L, R) output jacks on your receiver and AUDIO (L, R) input jacks on your TV.

■ Connect a scart cable between SCART (TV) output jack on your receiver and SCART input jack on your TV.

Second, connect one end of your coaxial cable to the LNB input connector of your receiver and the other end to the DiSEqC 1.2 motor.

Using DiSEqC 1.0 Connection

All our receivers are designed to be DiSEqC 1.0 and DiSEqC 1.2 compatible.

This allows multiple antennas to be connected to the STB at the same time.

If you have two or more ﬁxed antennas or LNBs, use a DiSEqC 1.0 switch. Connect the coaxial cable from the ﬁrst LNB to the LNB 1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC switch. Do the same for any other LNBs that you have.

Connect one end of a coaxial cable to the RF output connector of the DiSEqC switch. Connect the other end to the LNB IN socket on the STB.

To the digital receiver, you can connect either a single satellite antenna directly or LNB of multi-feed equipment.

Using USALS System

For more information about using USALS system, see page 20, “Setting up the Motor Antenna.”

5.6.8 About Hard Disc Recording

To make the best use of your HDD recordings, we recommend keeping in mind these rules as general information.

■ We suggest that you spend some time testing the major

functions along with HDD recordings in order make yourself familiar with them.

■ The recording capacity of the HDD is quite large,

however, it is limited. By default, it is about 80 hours of TV recording (depending on the size of the installed HDD).

■ Actual recording time may vary because it widely

depends on the recorded program material and its data volume. In case of radio reception, recording time can be up to 40 times larger than TV recording time.

■ A small portion of the HDD capacity is always reserved

for Timeshift recording and cannot be used for regular storage of TV or radio programs.

■ Remember to delete recordings from the disk that you

don’t needed any longer.

■ Recordings made on the built-in disk cannot be digitally

transferred to an external digital recording device.

■ Recordings you want to keep you may transfer to a

conventional analogue VCR.

■ This set top box can be used also for direct recording

of TV and radio programs on a conventional analogue VCR.

■ Recording can be made only from the channel you are

watching for the moment.

■ Timer recordings (internal HDD or externally connected

conventional VCR) can be booked easily by using the EPG recording function.

■ Timeshift Recording (TSR) viewing / recording is one

of the big advantages of the built-in HDD. You can start watching playback of a recorded program while the recording of the same program is still in progress. Or you can pause viewing a TV program and continue watching some time later from the missing point while watching movie: the HDD drive has performed necessary intermediate recording meanwhile.

Further details of the above mentioned recording functions are described in this manual.

Recording of copyright protected TV and radio program material is permitted only for personal use. In order to avoid infringements of copyright laws please observe the existing regulations in your country.

Description of details for better understanding the complex functions, such as:

Example 1>> HDD Standby Timer setting

HDD will not be used at all times. Normal TV watching or radio listening does not require a running HDD. This menu is used for both, extending service life of the HDD and saving power that is consumed by an idling HDD.

If the timer is set to 10 minutes, the HDD goes into standby mode after 10 minutes of non-use.

Notes:

■ Start-up time of a “sleeping” HDD is about 5 seconds.

This will increase the time delay for recording start after pressing the record or timeshift relative button.

■ If you prefer a quicker start of the record mode you

should better select the timer setting “Always ON”. Toggle with Arrow(◄/►) buttons to set the desired parameter.

Example 2>> Timer Recording

■ You can use the timer function for unattended recordings

on HDD or on a conventional VCR that has been connected to the VCR SCART connector of this unit. You can also use the timer function for automatically switching your receiver ON/OFF or changing the TV program at a preset time in case you don’t want to miss the start of a program but want to watch another channel until then.

■ The timer function allows you to set up a list with all the

required timer settings in which you can enter the date and time for the receiver to be switched on and off, the program and if necessary daily or weekly repeat of each switching operation.

■ If you are currently watching a program and timer

switching operation is pending, the receiver reminds you by overlaying a massage that the timer switching operation will take place in one minute. When this time is reached, the receiver switches over to the required channel and REC is displayed on the front display. After the preset time has expired, the receiver switches back to the original channel.

Example 3>> Using the Timeshift Recording

Let us assume that the phone is ringing while you are watching TV.

You do not want to miss anything of the program, so you decide to start the timeshift recording while you answer the phone.

While watching TV, just press the timeshift relative button.

■ The picture will freeze, no sound will be heard and the

recording will start.

■ Time shift enables you to follow a running program with

a delay of up to 120 minutes.

Let us assume again that 10 minutes later the situation is like this:

■ A frozen picture on the TV and no sound.

■ Of course, you would like to watch now the timeshift

recording that contains your missed 10 minutes.

■ You start the playback of the timeshift recording by

pressing the PLAY(►) button.

Note: Further recording is still in progress during the playback in the timeshift mode.

To turn off the timeshift recording do as follows:

■ Keep on watching the playback until the program is

finished.

■ Press the STOP(■) button to turn off the timeshift

recording.

■ In order to save HDD memory space, time shift recordings

will be deleted automatically from the temporary memory when pressing the STOP(■) button.

Note: During the playback in the timeshift mode, you may use the special playback functions, such as SLOW, REW, FWD, and PAUSE

When starting the playback during an ongoing timeshift recording you can press the FWD(►► ) button repeatedly if you do not want to be 10 minutes behind the live transmission of the program. So it is possible to have a quick look at what has been recorded during your phone conversation - and at the same time ﬁnally reach the direct transmission of the program. If anything of interest seems to be going on you can press the

PLAY(►) button again and

select normal speed (with sound).
