2.4 Connecting up your digital receiver

There are several ways to set up the digital receiver. Set up the
digital receiver suitably to your television and other devices.
If you have any problem with your setup or need help, contact
your dealer.

2

2.4 Connecting up your digital receiver 11

2.4.1 Connecting to the antenna

Whatever sort of connection you have be­tween the digital receiver and the television,
you need to connect the digital receiver to the
antenna so that it can receive digital televi­sion broadcasts. Connect the antenna cable
to the ANT IN connector. If you have an-
other digital receiver, you may link it from
the ANT OUT connector.

NOTE

ANT OUT may also be linked to your television, VCR, or
DVD recorder to loop an analogue signal.

2.4.2 Connecting to your television set

For all the following connections of the digital receiver, we rec­ommend you to use the rst connector to get the best picture
quality. If your television does not have a matching connector,
then use the next connector in the following order for a better
picture quality.

1. HDMI connector (HDMI)

2. Composite connector (AUDIO, VIDEO)

You should congure audio and video settings after connect­ing up the digital receiver. See §4.1 for a detailed description.

To use the HDMI output

If you have a high denition television set,
you should use an HDMI cable for best re­sults. Plug one end of the cable into the HDMI
socket on the digital receiver, and plug the
other end into the matching socket on your
television. In this case, you do not have to
make audio connection because it can output
stereo audio or digital audio as well.

12 Setup

To use the Composite video output

You need to obtain a Composite video cable
(RCA cable) to use the Composite video out­put. Plug one end ofthe cable into the VIDEO
(yellow) socket on the digital receiver, and
plug the other end into the matching socket
on your television.

NOTE

posite video output.

To make the audio connection

You need to obtain an audio cable (RCA ca­ble) to link the audio connectors. Plug one
ends of the cable into the AUDIO L (white)
and AUDIO R (red) sockets on the digi-
tal receiver, and plug the other ends into
the matching sockets on your television or
audio-video receiver.
To enjoy Digital audio, your television or
audio-video receiver must be able to decode
Digital audio, and you need to obtain an
S/PDIF cable.

If you want to use the COAXIAL connec­tor, prepare a coaxial S/PDIF cable (RCA ca­ble); otherwise to use the OPTICAL connec­tor, prepare an optical S/PDIF cable. Plug
one end of the cable into the S/PDIF socket
on the digital receiver, and plug the other end
into the matchingsocket onyour audio-video
receiver.

2.5 Switching on for the rst time 13

2.5 Switching on for the rst time

Now that you have your digital receiverconnected, you should
plug it into a wall socket. Ensure that your television set is
turned on and on the correct video channel so that you will be
able to see the display from the digital receiver.

Before switching on the digital receiver, you should insert bat­teries into the remote control. Open the battery compartment
by removing the lid, and then insert the batteries observing the
polarity, which is marked on the base of the battery compart­ment.

Press the

button on the top left corner on the remote con-

trol. In a little time, you may see a picture displaying a menu.

If you do not see a picture, try pressing the

VF button on the

remote control. If after several tries you still get no picture,
check that the television is setto the correct input. If the picture
is good, you can skip to §3.1 to search for available television
and radio services. Otherwise, you may need to temporarily
connect the Composite video connector (VIDEO) to your tele­vision set so that you can see the menu in order to congure
the video settings.

CAUTION

If the digital receiver no longer reacts properly to the remote
control commands, the batteries may be at. Be sure to re­place only with 1.5 V AAA size batteries, and observe the
following precautions.

Ë Do not mix dierent types of batteries, or new and old

batteries.

Ë Do not use rechargeable batteries.

Ë Do not recharge the old batteries.

Ë In order to avoid any risk of explosion, observe the po-

larities indicated inside the battery compartment.

Service Search

After connecting up the digital receiver, you will need to per­form a service search.

NOTE

If there is no service stored, you will be not able to access all
menus. A  is another name for a .

16 Service Search

You should set the Search Mode option to Auto for the rst
time after connecting up the digital receiver, then the digital
receiver will search for all available services.

You may choose to only search for the services of a specic
transponder since more than one service are provided via each
transponder. Set the Search Mode option to Manual, then se­lect your desired transponder at the Channel option. The num­ber ranges from 6 to 12 in VHF and 27 to 69 in UHF.

It is possible to search single service in a certain transponder
only if you know the desired service’s audio and video packet
identication (PID). Set the Search Mode option to Advanced,
then the PID option becomes enabled. Specify the PIDs of your
desired service with the numeric buttons.

To start service search, move down to the Start Search item,
and press the

OK button. The digital receiver will start to

search for services and display a list of television and radio
services as they are found. It is common for no channels to be

4.1 Video and audio settings 19

Set the Video Format option as you desire. If you set this op­tion to 576P, the digital receiver will present even high deni­tion programmes in resolution of 576. On the contrary, if you
set it to 1080I, the digital receiver will present even standard
denition programmes in resolution of 1080.

It is recommended to set it to Auto if you have a high denition
television. With that setting the digital receiver will present a
programme as it is without any resolution conversion. While
watching television you can change the resolution with the

VF

button. Whenever you pressit, the video resolution is changed
in turn.

NOTE

You can enjoy only standard denition video with the Com­posite video output (AV-OUT VIDEO).

4.1.2 Television aspect ratio

If you have a wide-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio
option to 16:9.

You can enjoy both wide-screen programmes and normal­screen programmes with your wide-screen television as the
above gures show. To watch normal-screen programmes
in full screen like the left gure, set the Display Format option
to Full. Normal-screen pictures then will be inated to t to
the width of the wide screen. Otherwise, to watch them in the
original ratio like the right gure, set it to Center. If you have

a normal-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio option to
4:3.

You cannot fully enjoy wide-screen programmes with your
normal-screen television as the above gures show. The left
gure shows a normal picture displayed in the normal screen.
To watch wide-screen programmes in the shape like the cen­tre gure, set the Display Format option to Letter Box. Wide­screen pictures then will be reduced to t to the width of the
normal screen. Otherwise, to watch them in the shape like the
right gure, set it to Center extract. Then wide-screen pictures
will be cut out on the left and right sides equally to t to the
width of the normal screen.

4.1.3 Audio mode

Basically, there are two audio sources asyou can ndtwo audio
sockets on the back panel of the digital receiver. You can enjoy
only one source or both of them in either stereo or mono. Set
the Sound Mode option as you desire.

Apart from this setting, you can change the sound mode with
the butt

on. See §5.2.4 for a detailed description.

The digital receiver can output two types of digital audio sig­nals via the S/PDIF output. One is an encoded signal, and
the other is a decoded signal. If you have the digital receiver
linked to your audio-video receiver via the S/PDIFoutput, you
have to set the Digital option to O, which means that the
digital receiver will output encoded Digital audio without
decoding so that your audio-video receiver can decode it.

Otherwise, set it to On, then the digital receiver will output
decoded Digital audio, scaling it down to two channels.

a Digital audio track, you can enjoy Digital sound.
