 Do not use alcohol or ammonia based liquids to clean the receiver. If you wish, you may clean

your receiver with a soft lint-free cloth slightly made damp with a mild soap solution, and only after disconnecting from the mains voltage supply. Make sure no foreign objects fall through the ventilation slots because this could cause fire or an electric shock.

 Do not place any objects on top of the receiver because this might prevent proper cooling of the

components inside.

Safety Precautions

 Never try to open the receiver. It is dangerous to touch the inside of the receiver due to high

voltages and possible electrical hazards. Opening the receiver will void the warranty of the product. Refer all maintenance or servicing to suitably qualified personnel.

 When you are connecting cables, be sure that the receiver is disconnected from the mains supply

voltage. Wait a few seconds after switching off the receiver before you move the receiver or disconnect any equipment.

 It is a necessity that you only use an approved extension and compatible wiring that is suitable

for the electrical power consumption of the installed equipment. Please ensure that the electrical power supply corresponds with the voltage on the electrical identification plate at the back of the

receiver. If the receiver does not operate normally, even after strictly following the instructions in the user manual available on our website www.strong.tv/downloads/manuals/7504_UM_EN.pdf it is recommended to consult your dealer or the appropriate service for your country.

3.0 CONNECTIONS

3.1 Basic connection

A: Connect the LNB or Mono block for ASTRA 19.2 /ASTRA 23.5 of your satellite antenna to the SAT IN

connector of your receiver using a good quality coax cable and suitable ‘F-connector’ plugs.

Fig. 4

Fig. 5

Fig. 6.

B: Connect one end of a good quality HDMI cable to the HDMI connector of your receiver and the other

end to the HDMI input of your TV set.

C: Plug the power adapter jack to the receiver and the other end to a suitable wall outlet.

Optional: If your TV set don’t have an HDMI connector you can use the SCART connection instead. In such case connect one end of a good quality SCART cable to the TV SCART of your receiver and the other end to the SCART input of your TV set.

3.2 Extended connections for your home entertainment

Fig. 7.

A: Connect one end of a good quality coaxial audio cable to the S/PDIF output of your receiver and the

other end to the coaxial audio input of your home theatre, amplifier or any other device supporting digital audio.

B: Connect your USB 2.0 storage device to this connector by using a good quality USB cable or insert the

device directly.

3.3 Connecting to multiple xed antennas

Fig. 8.

A: Connect the LNBs of your fixed antenna to the desired inputs of a DiSEqC 1.0 switch using a good

quality coaxial cable and suitable ‘F-connectors’.

B: Connect the output or “to receiver” of the DiSEqC 1.0 switch to the SAT IN connector on your receiver

using a good quality coaxial cable and suitable ‘F-connectors’.

C: Plug the power adapter jack to the receiver and the other end to a suitable wall outlet.

3.4 Connecting to your motorised dish via DiSEqC 1.2

Fig. 9

Another possibility for watching programmes from multiple satellites is by mounting a dish to a motorized DiSEqC 1.2 or GOTO-X positioner. For the correct setup and mounting of your motorised dish we recommend referring to the advice of a professional satellite equipment installer to ensure correct alignment and function. Please ensure that all connections are fitting well and are correctly assembled, then you only need to connect the “OUT” connector of your positioner to the SAT IN connector on the rear side of your receiver.

4.0 STARTING UP FOR THE FIRST TIME

Ensure that your satellite signal is of good quality and that all connections are properly setup. In case you encounter difficulties or you have questions, please ask your local dealer for assistance. It is recommended to follow the First Time Installation step by step. It will guide you through the basic setup and installation process. You will enjoy digital HD broadcasts within just a few minutes. If your receiver is not already powered ON, against our expectation, please use the power switch on the rear side of your receiver to switch it ON. In the unusual/uncommon case that the receiver should not start-up within the First Time Installation, please reset the receiver with the factory reset. See chapter 7.1.5 of the user manual on our website: www.strong.tv/downloads/manuals/7504_UM_EN.pdf. Please insert your valid and activated Irdeto smart card for proper reception of the channel bouquet of your choice. For correct insertion of the smart card please see the insertion drawing (Fig 1).

4.1 Language, Country and Video Settings

After connecting your receiver for the first time, the OSD language, Country and Video Setting menus will be shown. First choose your language with tu then use pq to select your preferred country. For these settings you can also use OK to show a list of available settings. Then use pq to select Video Setting. In the Video Settings you can press tu to choose connection between HDMI and Scart. If necessary, these settings can be opened by pressing OK. A detailed description of the settings can be found in the

chapters 7.1.3.1 HDMI or 7.1.3.2 SCART of the user manual on our website: www.strong.tv/downloads/

manuals/7504_UM_EN.pdf.

NOTE If you select an HDMI resolution which your TV does not support, the

receiver will switch to the previous setting automatically after ~10 sec. When you see the displayed message, please confirm the selected resolution by pressing OK.

Please read the displayed instructions for each screen carefully. They will help you adjusting the settings

fast and easy.During the First Time Installation, you can press BLUE Next to go to the next step or

YELLOW Previous to get back to the previous step.

4.2 Audio and Subtitle Setup

Here you can set the Audio Language, Audio output, Subtitle Display and Subtitle Language. Use pq for

selection and tu to change settings. To see a list of all possible settings for the highlighted option,

press OK. Once all settings have been made, press BLUE Next to continue or YELLOW Previous to get

back to the previous setup screen.

Please read the displayed instructions for each screen carefully. They will help you adjusting the settings

fast and easy.

4.3 Auto DiSEqC Scan

In this menu the receiver will do an automatic scan for connected LNBs and suitable satellites. The most

common satellites as Astra 23.5E, Astra 19.2E, Astra 28.2E, HotBird 13.0E and Eutelsat 9.0E will be scanned

for availability. Please wait for a short time to let the receiver complete the scan and then apply the

settings to the next step by pressing OK at Next. Press OK at Previous if you have forgotten to connect

a satellite cable or need to correct anything else that was adjusted before. Once the Auto DiSEqC scan is

finished and you have confirmed with OK you will automatically receive at the next step of FTI. To ensure

reception and to scan the channels from your operator follow the Fast Scan method in the next steps.

For this the reception of Astra 23.5E is essential.

4.4 Satellite Selection

Depending on the results of the found satellites in the previous installation step it is possible to setup

other or additional satellites connected to your installation system. This might be useful if you have other

satellites installed on the LNB which are not commonly used ones or if the found satellites need rework.

To check or change your settings for the satellite(s) connected to the ports, use pq and press OK to

enter the submenu of your choice (LNB and the configured satellite will be according to Auto DiSEqC

Scan result). This you can do for up to 4 satellite positions. For a detailed description of this setup, please

see chapter below. Once all settings have been made, press BLUE Next to continue.

English

4.5 Channel List Selection

Here you can decide which of the Fast Scan channel lists you want to install. Use pq to highlight your

selection in orange coloured letters. Press OK to choose a list and the receiver will start the scan for the

list directly. Please, have patience as this takes some time. When the list has successfully been loaded, the

First Time Installation will be finished.
