Important notes on operating the unit
The implementation of an "On Screen Display" (text shown on
screen) helps to simplify thed operation of the digital receiver,
and also helps to reduce the number of kews required on the
remote control unit. All functions are indicated on the screen,
and can be implemented with a few keys. Related functions
are combined in a "MENU". The function selected will be
marked and highlighted in a different colour. The bottom line
of the display shows colour bars in green, red, yellow and
blue, corrresponding to the function keys in these colours. In
the various menus these colour bars represent different
functions which can be accessed by pressing the
multi-function key of the appropriate colour on the remote
control unit. The function keys are only active if a brief
description appears in the appropriate field.
Key descriptions and other terms appearing in the OSD menu
are shown in emphasized letters in this operating manual.

The items a b c etc. mentioned below refer to the illustration
on page 10.
4.1 External unit
a Connect the cable originating from the terrestrial anten-
na with the terrestrial antenna input of the receiver.
Where possible, please use a roof-mounted antenna.
Under favourable reception conditions an internal
room antenna may be sufficient. When using an acti-
ve antenna be sure to switch on the antenna feed
(Point 6.2.4).
4.2 Connection to a television set
When you have connected your digital receiver with the television set as described in this chapter, it may be necessary to
adjust the digital receiver to the television standard of your
television set. To do this, please note Point 6.3.5 (Video
system).
4.2.1 Via SCART socket
To ensure the best possible picture quality, use a SCART
cable to connect the digital receiver with the television
set.Proceed as follows:
b Connect the receiver (Scart socket TV) with the
Scart socket on the television set, using a Scart
cable. If your television set provides the appropriate
facility, it will switch automatically to AV mode when
the digital receiver is switched on, and will thus
switch to DVB-T mode.
4.2.2 Via HF cable
If your television set is not equipped with a SCART socket,
the digital receiver will have to be connected to the antenna
input socket of the television set. If this connection is used,
only mono sound reproduction is possible.
To make the connection, proceed as follows:
c Use a suitable TV connection cable to connect the
receiver (HF output) to the antenna input socket of
the television set.
4.3 Video cassette recorder (VCR)
d To obtain the best possible sound quality you can con-
nect the digital receiver to a hi-fi amplifier. To do this,
use a suitable cable to connect the cinch sockets
Audio R and Audio L on the digital receiver with an
input socket on your hi-fi amplifier (e.g. CD or AUX;
note that the phono input is not suitable)
11
4.4 HiFi Amplifier
4.4.1 Analogue
g To achieve the best possible sound quality, you may
connect the digital receiver to a HiFi amplifier. To do

8 Hard drive operation
Your PVR receiver (PVR=Personal Video Recorder) is equipped with an integrated hard disk drive, so that you no longer
require an external medium (e.g. video recorder) to make
recordings. The recording capacity is dependent on the size
of the hard drive, as well as on the volume of data of the broadcast material.
8.1 Recording
Several recording modes are available to record broadcasts
on the hard drive.
1. Instant recording
Use this type of recording to immediately record the currently
selected programme at the touch of a key.
2. Timer-controlled recording
If this function is selected, the digital receiver will be switched
on resp. off for the selected programme, to record this on the
hard drive in your absence. You can programme the timer
manually, or you can do this automatically using the SFI function.

You may programme the timers manually as described in this
chapter, or with the help of the SFI function as described in
Point 7.14.7.2.
1. Hard drive timer
This function will switch the digital receiver on and off for the
selected programme, so that this can be recorded on the
hard drive in your absence.
If the receiver was switched on by means of the hard drive
timer, this will be indicated by “ PVR Timer” being shown on
the display. Most of the remote control functions are disabled
in order to prevent an accidental premature interruption of the
recording. When the receiver is in standby mode, an active
timer will be indicated by a clock symbol shown on the
display.
2. Video recorder timer
Use the video recorder timer to switch the digital receiver on
and off for a particular programme, so that this can be recorded on an external recorder, such as a video recorder, in

this will be indicated by “ VCR Timer” being shown on the
display. Most of the remote control functions are disabled in
order to prevent an accidental premature interruption of the
recording. When the receiver is in standby mode, an active
timer will be indicated by a clock symbol shown on the
display.
3. Programme change timer
If your receiver is in normal operating mode, it will switch to
the pre-selected programme slot at the designated starting

10 Technical Terms
Antenna cable:
Connecting cable between the modulator of the satellite receiver and the antenna input of the television set. Used as an
alternative where no SCART socket is availabe
AV: see SCART
Data compression/MPEG1/MPEG2:
The current television standard (625 lines and 50 Hz picture
repeat frequency) provides a digital data volume of 216 MBit/s.
This would require bandwidths simply not available either terrestrially or via satellite. The data volume is thus reduced by
means of a data reduction system. For Europe, the internationally determined standard for data compression is MPEG-2.
MPEG-2 is an expanded version of MPEG-1
DVB:
Digital Video Broadcasting: A universal digital transmission
technology used to transmit pictures, graphics, sound and
text, as well as for data in every conceivable form and in
every possible, appropriate quality.
DVB-T receiver:
The signals received from the antenna cannot be processed
by the television set. They are processed in the DVB-T receiver so that audio and video signals (AV) are made available
at the receiver outputs which are passed on to the television
set in a form the TV set can use.
Frequency:
A physical unit of measurement, indicates the number of oscillations per second, the unit of measurement is Hertz (Hz)
Channel:
Part of a frequency band, which is allocated according to a
specific allocation protocol. A TV channel consists of two frequencies, one for the visual and one for the audio content.
Each channel is designated by a numeric identifier (with the
exception of European television channels broadcast on the
frequency band 40 – 230 MHz, which are designated by letters).
Co-axial cable:
Connection cable between LNC and satellite receiver, used to
transmit the signals received and to supply power to the LNC.
Modulator:
Switch in the satellite receiver or video recorder used to connect the television set via antenna cable
OSD
On Screen Display (information displayed on TV screen).
PID
Packet Identifier, or Packet ID, specific numeric values used
to identify programmes.
Receiver:
The signals received from the antenna cannot be processed
50
by the television set. They are processed in the receiver so
that audio and video signals (AV) are made available at the
receiver outputs which are passed on to the television set in
a form the TV set can use.
SCART:
A standard plug-in connection used in satellite receivers,
video recorders, television sets and other home electronics
equipment to transmit audio (sound) and video (picture) signals (AV).
Software update:
Digital television is a new medium that provides improved
picture and sound quality as well as the option of providing
interactive services. These services are continually being
developed and improved by programme providers. To utilise
these services it may be necessary to update the software of
the digital receiver occasionally.
