Dear customer,
congratulations on your decision to purchase the MultyMedia
TS 1 digital receiver.
The operating manual supplied is intended to help you tuilise
the comprehensive functions of your new digital receiver to the
fullest extent.
We have kept the operating instructions as brief as possible,
and have used terminology that everybody can understand.
The range of functions of your receiver is constantly being
expanded in the form of software updates. This means that
additional steps in the operation may be added that are not yet
described in this operating manual, or the operation of existing
functions may be changed. For this reason you should occasionally visit the TechniSat homepage, to download the current
version of the operating manual.
We wish you many years of viewing pleasure with your
TechniSat
MultyMedia TS 1!
Your
TechniSat Team
3 Please read this first
> Before starting to use your receiver, please check that all
the components have been supplied correctly. The following should be included:
1 digital receiver, 1 mains adapterr and connection cable,
1 remote control, 1 operating manual,
1 guarantee card, 2 batteries (1,5V microcells)
1 SCART cable.
> Please insert the batteries supplied in the battery compart-
ment of the remote control unit, with attention to the correct polarity as indicated.
Important notes on operation
The use of so-called "On Screen Displays" (OSD) means that
operation of the digital receiver is simplified, and the number of
keys on the remote control unit reduced. All functions are displayed on screen, and can be controlled by means of a few simple
keystrokes. Functions that are logically connected are combined
in a "MENU". Any function selected will be indicated in a different
colour. The function keys red, yellow, blue and green are indicated by coloured bars at the bottom of the screen. In the various
menues, these coloured bars represent different functions, which
can be implemented by pressing the appropriate coloured keys
(multi-function keys) on the remote control. The function keys are
only activated when a brief description is displayed in the appropriate field.
Key names and terms that appear in the OSD menu are shown
in black type in this operating manual.
Help: where available, press the blue function key in the
menues to display a help text; press again to close the help window.
Disposal advice
The packaging material of your receiver consists entirely of recyclable materials. Please sort the components appropriately, and
dispose of them in line with your local waste disposal regulations.
At the end of its useful life span, this receiver may not be disposed of in your regular domestic refuse bin. It must be taken to a
recycling collection point for electrical and electronic equipment.
The symbol on the product, the operating manual or the packaging will indicate this.
The materials used are recyclable and re-usable in accordance
with their labelling. By ensuring that valuable raw materials are
used again you can make a valuable contribution towards protecting our environment.
Please contact your local authorities for the location of the nearest
recycling collection point.
8
Please ensure that spent batteries removed from the remote control are not disposed of in your regular household refuse, but are
correctly disposed either in special bins for problem waste, or at
collection points in the retail trade.
Safety notes
For your own protection you should read the safety notes carefully before proceeding to operate your new receiver.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by
careless and irresponsbile handling, or by non-compliance with
the safety notes.
> To ensure adequate ventilation, place the receiver on a
smooth, horizontal surface and do not place any objects
on top of the receiver, as ventilation slots are located here
to allow heat to be dissipated from the interior of the unit.
> Do not place any burning objects, such as burning cand-
les, on top of the receiver.
> Do not subject the receiver to water droplets or water
spray, and do not place any obkects filled with liquid, such
as vases, on top of the receiver.
> Operate the receiver only in a temperate climate.
> Do not open the reciever housing under any circumstan-
ces! You are in danger of receiving an electrical shock. If it
is necessary to effect repairs in the receiver, these should
only be carried out by trained and qualified service person-
nel.
In the following cases you should disconnect the receiver
from the mains power, and should consult an expert:
> the mains cable or the mains plug are damaged
> the receiver was exposed to liquid, or liquid has run into
the unit
> in case of severe malfunctions
> in case of significant external damage
Operating breaks
In case of electrical storms, or in case of extended operating breaks (e.g. while on holiday), the receiver should be disconnected
from the mains power supply.

The following references a b c etc.
refer to the illustration on page 10.
4.1 External unit
a Use a suitable co-axial cable to connect the LNB
input of the digital receiver with the LNB of your
external unit. Please also note Point 6 "Settings".
4.2 Antenna
b The cable coming from the terrestrial antenna (indoor
or roof-mounted antenna) must be connected to the
Input terrestrial antenna of the receiver.
If possible, you should give preference to using a roof-
mounted antenna. Under favourable conditions, an
indoor antenna may also be sufficient. When using
an active antenna without an external feed,
the antenna feed must be switched on
(Point 6.5).
4.3 Connection to a television set
c Use the SCART cable supplied to connect the recei-
ver (SCART socket TV) with the television set
(SCART socket). If your television set is appropriately
equipped, this will be switched to AV mode automati-
cally when the digital receiver is switched on, and is
thus switched to receiver operation.
4.4 Video cassette recorder (VCR)
d Connect the video recorder to the SCART socket
VCR. In playback mode the video recorder will supply
a switching signal to the digital receiver. This allows
the video recorder signal to be fed automatically to the
TV set.
If your video recorder does not prtovide a switching
current, switch your digital receiver to the external
input AV using the EXTERN key. Press this key
again to return to normal operation.

4.5 Hi-fi amplifier
4.5.1 Analogue
e To achieve the best possible sound quality, you can
connect your digital receiver to a hi-fi amplifier. To do
this, use a suitable cable to connect the cinch sockets
Audio R and Audio L of the digital receiver with an
input of your hi-fi amplifier (e.g. CD or AUX; note that
the phono input is not suitable!).
4.5.2 Digital
e If your amplifier is equipped with a suitable electrical or
optical input, you should connect the socket AUDIO
OUT DIGITAL electrical resp. AUDIO OUT
DIGITAL optical wmwith the electrical resp. optical
input of your amplifier.
Depending on the signal provided by each individual channel,
sampling rates of 32, 44,1 and 48 kHz are available.
In addition, where broadcast, the Dolby Digital signal (AC3) is
also available.
4.6 Serial interface (RS 232)
The RS 232 interface is used in conjunction with updating the
operating software or pre-programming via a PC.
4.7 Mains power connection
The digital receiver should only be connected to the mains
power supply once you have completed making all the connections with the various other components. This will avoid
possible damage to the digital receiver or other components.
f Once you have made all the other connections, use
the mains adapter supplied to connect the receiver to
a mains power outlet 230 V/50-60 Hz.
5 Initial installation
Once you have read the safety notes, and have connected
the digital receiver as described in Chapter 4, you can now
switch on the receiver as described in Chapter 7. When switching on the receiver for the first time, the starting window of
the installation assistant AutoInstall will be displayed. The
installation assistant allows you to make the most important
settings of your digital receiver in the simplest way possible.
To make the settings in each respective step of the installation procedure, the keys on the remote control required for
this will be marked.
At each step of the installation there will be an explanation,
which settings can be made.

taken to the previous step of the installation, thus giving you
an opportunity to correct errors at any time.
If the initial installation is not performed, or if it is aborted, the
receiver will commence operation with a standard pre-programmed procedure.
The initial installation process shown here serves merely as an example. The exact process of the
initial installation will depend on the settings you select.
Please therefore follow all instructions displayed on screen
carefully.

> Press the Back key to return to the LNB settings.
The data relating to your location must be entered as a
decimal value, correct to one decimal place. As the coordinates are often stated in degrees, minutes and seconds,
these must be converted to decimal values as follows:
The value for degrees is not affected by the conversion. The
minutes are divided by 60, and rounded to one decimal
place. The result of this division is added to the value for full
degrees.
The seconds are not taken into consideration, as they do not
affect the first decimal place.
Example: Co-ordinates of Daun/Germany
Degrees latit. 50° 11‘(45“) N
Degrees longit. 06° 50‘ (10‘‘) E
Converting the degrees latitude (DL):
DL = 50 + 11/60
DL = 50 + 0,2 (rounded)
DL= 50,2
9.3 Setting a satellite position
For each satellite position to be added, consecutively work
through Points 9.3.1 to 9.3.3. When programming satellite
positions, we recommend you start with the satellite that has
the most Easterly orbital position. Continue by adding the
other satellites, working your way through in a Westerly direction, until you have reached the satellite with the most
Westerly orbital position. Your digital receiver is pre-programmed at the factory for the most popular satellite positions. In addition, you can configure user-defined satellite
positions (User 1 to User 14) for any orbital position desired.
9.3.1 Selecting a satellite position

10 Technical Terms
Antenna cable:
Cable connection between the modulator of the satellite receiver and the antenna input of the television set. Used as an
alternative where no SCART socket is available
AV: see SCART
Co-axial cable:
Connection cable between LNB and satellite receiver,as well
as between the DVB-T antenna and the receiver, to transmit
the signals received, and to provide electrical current to the
LNBs and to the DVB-T antenna.
Channel:
Part of a frequency band,allocated according to a specific
splitting procedure. A TV channel consists of two frequnecies,
one for the visual and one for the audio content. Each channel is described in terms of a numeric abbreviation (with the
exception of European television channels, which are broadcast in the 40-230 MHz frequency band, and are designated
by letters).
Data compression/MPEG1/MPEG2:
To transmit the current television standard (625 lines and 50
Hz image refreshing frequency), one arrives at a digital data
volume of 216 MBit/s.
This would require bandwidth that is not available for either
terrestrial or satellite transmission. Therefore, the data is
reduced to decrease the volume of data. For Europe, MPEG2 has been determined as the international standard for data
compression. MPEG2 is an expansion of MPEG1
DiSEqC:
Digital Satellite Equipment Control: a digital controlling/swit-
ching signal for controlling DiSEqC-compatible components of
the external installation via the antenna cable. An example of
how an installation consisting of DiSEqC components could
be constructed is shown in (Fig. 10-1).
DVB:
Digital Video Broadcasting: a universal digital broadcasting
technology suitable for pictures, graphics, sound and text,
thus for data in any shape or form, and in all possible levels
of quality, always appropriate for the content.
DVB-T Receiver: see Receiver
External unit or installation:
Description used for the entire system of components located
outdoors, consisting of the parabolic/offset dish as well as
one or more LNBs used to receive signals from one or several satellites.
Frequency:
Physical measurement, indicates the number of oscillations
per second. The unit of measurement is the Hertz (Hz)

1 kHz 1 Kilohertz 1.000
1 MHz 1 Megahertz 1.000.000
1 GHz 1 Gigahertz 1.000.000.000
Frequency range:
a) Satellite resp. LNB:
11 GHz range from 10,70 GHz - 11,70 GHz, 12 GHz range
fromn 11,70 GHz - 12,75 GHz
b) Receiver: Intermediate frequency, or 1. IF 950 to 2150
MHz
Intermediate frequency:
The frequency range transmitted by the satellite cannot be
transmitted via cable, and is therefore converted by the LNB
to the intermediate frequency range of 950 to 2150 MHz.
This makes transmission possible, and allows the digital
receiver to process the signal.
1. IF = intermediate frequency
LNB/LNC (Low Noise Block converter):
Reception unit at the focal point of the antenna, converts the
frequency range of the satellite into the intermediate frequency of the digital receiver.
LOF:
Local oscillator frequency: stated in terms of MHz or GHz;
varies depending on the LNB and the frequency range received.
Receiving frequency of the digital receiver = broadcasting frequency of the satellite - LOF
Modulation at 22 KHz:
Apart from the 14/18 Volt switching facility, this serves to
switch between two LNBs. In the case of a Universal LNB it
serves to switch to the High-Band range
OSD:
On Screen Display (messages and menues shown on
screen)
Parabolic dish:
Dish made of metal or coated synthetics, with a parabolic
shape, to focus the electromagnetic waves broadcast by the
satellite at a focal point
PID:
Packet Identifier, Packet-ID
Polarisation plane:
To better utilise the available frequency range, satellites areconfigured so that neighbouring transponders broadcast with
opposite polarisation (horizontal and vertical or laevo-rotatory
and dextro-rotatory). To receive both polarisation planes you
will require two single LNBs or a V/H LNB.
Receiver:
The signals received by the DVB-T antenna, resp. received
and converted by the LNB cannot be processed by the televi-
75
sion set. They are processed by the satellite receiver so that
the audio and video (AV) signals produced at its outputs can
be transmitted to the television set.
Satellite receiver: see Receiver
Satellite:
Description of the satellite, usually consisting of the name and
the orbital position,
ASTRA 19° East
EUTELSAT 13° East
Satellite receiver:
The signals received and converted by the LNB cannot be
processed by the television set. They are processed by the
satellite receiver so that the audio and video (AV) signals produced at its outputs can be transmitted to the television set.
SCART:
Plug-in connection on television sets, video recorders, satellite receivers and other consumer electronics appliances, used
to transmit audio (sound) and video (picture) signals (AV).
Software update:
Digital television is a new medium that provides not only
improved picture and sound quality, but also provides the facility of providing interactive services. These new services are
continually being developed and improved by the service providers. To use these services, it may therefore be necessary
to update the software of the digital receiver.
Supply current:
LNBs are supplied with electrical current via the co-axial
cable. To do this, the receiver provides a current of 14 or 18
Volts.
Transponder:
Located on the satellite, processes one or several programmes there, ie. it receives the data from the transmitting station
on the ground, amplifies the signal and broadcasts it back to
earth.
Universal LNB:
Designed to receive the ranges FFS (10,70 - 11,70 GHz),
BBS (11,70 - 12,50 GHz) and FFS High Band (12,50 - 12,75
GHz). The entire range is divided into two bands:
Low Band: 10,70 - 11,80 GHz; LOF 9750 MHz
High Band 11,70 - 12,75 GHz ; LOF 10600 MHz
