3.1 Important operating instruction
The use of a so-called "On Screen Display" (Display inserts) simplifies the digital receiver operation and reduces the number of remote control keys. All of the functions will be displayed on the screen and all of them can be controlled using just a few of the keys. Associated functions are assembled together in a "MENU". The selected function will be highlighted in colour. The “Function keys” are displayed in red, yellow, green and blue colour cursors in the bottom line. These colour cursors have different functions in the separate menus and these can be executed by pressing the appropriately colour key (“multi-function key”) on the remote control. The “Function keys” are only active if a brief description is displayed in the relevant field. Key names and commands that are displayed in the OSD menu are printed in bold in this operating manual.
Help:
Help text, if available, can be displayed or suppressed by pressing the blue function key in the menus.

4.1 External unit
a Use the cable comming from the terrestrial aerial (roof or room aerial) to connect up
to the terrestrial aerial input on the receiver. A roof aerial should be used whenever possible. A room aerial might be sufficient if reception is very good. The aerial power supply must be switched on if you are using an active aerial (Section 6.2.4).
4.2 TV connection
4.2.1 Using a HDMI cable
b Use a HDMI cable to connect up the receiver (HDMI output) to the TV (HDMI
input). If your TV is equipped accordingly it will switch over automatically to the HDMI input when the digital receivers is switched on.
4.2.2 Using a SCART cable
c Use a SCART cable to connect up the receiver (TV SCART socket) to the TV
(SCART socket). If your TV is equipped accordingly it will switch over automatically to AV and DVB-T mode when the digital receivers is switched on.
4.2.3 Using a HF cable
The digital receiver must be connected up to the TV's aerial input so that you can also receive analog programmes. Only analog programmes will be passed to the TV via this connection. A HDMI connection or a SCART connection must be set up in compliance with Sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 in order to show DVB-T programmes on your TV.
d Use a suitable TV connecting cable to connect up the receiver (Aerial output) with
the TV's aerial input.
4.3 HiFi amplifier
4.3.1 Analogue
e The digital receiver can be connected up to a HiFi amplifier in order to obtain the best
sound possible. Use a suitable cable ton connect up the Audio R and Audio L Cinch sockets on the digital receivers to an input on your HiFi amplifier (e.g. CD or AUX; Attention! the record player input is unsuitable for this!).
4.3.2 Digital
e If your amplifier is supplied from an appropriate electrical input, then you can connect
up the Digit audio output (electrical) with your amplifier's electrical input. Sampling rates of 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz are available, but this depends on the respective station. The Dolby Digital signal (AC3) is also available at this output, if it is broadcast.

9 Technical terms
Aerial cable:
The connecting cable used between the aerial output on the receiver and the aerial input on the TV, which enables analog TV programmes to be received by the TV.
AV:
see SCART
MPEG1/MPEG2 data compression:
A digital data package of 216 Mbits/s is needed to transmit current TV standards (625 lines and 50 Hz screen repition frequeny). This would require bandwidths that are neither available terrestrially nor by satellite. Therefore data quantity reduction is realised by data reduction. MPEG-2 is defined for use in Europe, as it is the data compression standard used throughout the world. MPEG2 is an extension of MPEG1
DVB:
Digital Video Broadcasting: A digital, universal transmission technology used for images, graphics, sound and text, as well as data in any conceivable form and in any possible and measurred quality.
DVB-T receiver:
The signal received from the aerial cannot be processed by the TV. It has to be prepared in the DVB-T recceiver so that a the audio and video signals (AV) are made available to be passed on to the TV.
Frequency:
Physical size that gives the number of oscillations per second; the unit use is a Hertz (Hz) Channel: Part of a frequency band, which is set according to a specific allocation procedure. A TV channel consists of two frequencies, one for visual content and one for audio content. Each channel is identified by a numeric code (with the exception of the European television channels, which are transmitted in the 40 / 230 MHz frequency band and which are identified by letters).
HDCP Abbreviation for High Definition Content Protection
HDMI Abbreviation for High Definition Media Interface
Co-axial cable:
Connecting cable used to connect the aerial to the receiver so that the received signal can be transferred.
Mode:
Defines whether a mono or stereo programme will be received.

OSD:
On Screen Display (screen insert window)
PID:
Packet Identifier, Packet-ID
Receiver:
The signal received from the aerial cannot be processed by the TV. It has to be prepared so that audio and video signals (AV) that can be transferred to the TV are available at its outputs.
Scart:
Plug connector used on TVs, video recorders, receivers and other entertainment electronics devices for transferring audio (sound) and video (picture) signals.
Software update:
Digital television is a new medium, which apart from improved picture and sound quality also offers the option of interactive services. The programme providers are constantly developing and improving these new services. It might be necessary to update the digital receiver's software in order to be able to use these services.
