Conditional Access
About embedded Cryptoworks and CA Modules (Conditional Access)
The Strong receiver model SRT 4500 is ready to receive scrambled digital satellite programs using the Cryptoworks
encryption system. You will need a smart card from a Pay-TV service provider oering such encrypted TV program services.
Receiver model SRT 4500 CI only: This unit is able to receive scrambled digital satellite programs using Cryptoworks
encryption system. If you additionally want to receive other scrambled digital satellite programs you will need
a Common Interface CA (Conditional Access) module from the Pay-TV service provider of your choice.
The Pay-TV service provider is the program distributor.
If you are subscribing to services from more than one Pay-TV service provider you might have to change between
dierent Cryptoworks smart cards and / or CA modules. Two dierent CA modules can be inserted at the same time.
Please note that a smart card and / or a CA module may only be valid for a single Pay-TV service provider and due to this, a
specic range of channels.
The smart card and / or a specic CA module may also provide access to special menus not described in this manual.
If so, please follow the instructions from the Pay-TV service provider.
Without inserting a smart card into the smart card reader or using a suitable CA module, only “free to air” channels
will be available.
Pay TV Service
Follow the instructions from your Pay-TV service provider concerning smart cards, CA modules, and program services.
Insert the smart card fully into the card reader slot behind the lid on the front panel of this receiver. Use only a smart
card designed for the Cryptoworks encryption system.
Model SRT 4500 CI additionally: Gently insert the CA module fully into the slot behind the lid of the front panel of the
receiver. Use only DVB Standard, Common Interface CA Modules. Most of the commonly available CA modules require
a valid smart card, too. Insert the smart card fully into the card reader slot of the concerned CA module.

Connecting Multiple Antennas (DiSEqC 1.0)
n If you have a single antenna equipped with 2 LNBs, or two antennas with one LNB on each, you must rst connect
the LNBs to an external switch since there is only one antenna input on the satellite receiver. Once installed the switch
automatically selects the correct LNB for the selected channel. This external switch is known as a DiSEqC switch.
Since the switch can be located close to the LNBs, you only need one cable down to the receiver.
DiSEqC 1.0 Switch
n If you have two or more xed antennas (LNBs) then we recommend you use a DiSEqC 1.0 switch.
n Connect the coaxial cable from the rst LNB to the LNB1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC switch.
n Do the same for any other LNBs that you have.
n Connect the antenna cable to the connector marked “Receiver OUT” on the switch. Connect the other end of
this cable to the SAT ANT IN input on the satellite receiver.
Connecting a Motorized Antenna System (DiSEqC 1.2)
n In case you have a DiSEqC 1.2 motorized system you can take advantage of the DiSEqC 1.2 functions available
to store the positions of the satellites and to search for the channels.
n Connect one end of your coaxial cable to the LNB IN connector on the STB and the other end to the REC
or Receiver connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor.
n Connect the coaxial cable from the LNB to the LNB connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor.
