• Smartcard

Caution

Please do not plug in the main power supply cord until you have finished all of the connections!

Although some TV and radio channels are free to view, you must subscribe to most TV and radio/music channels and a Conditional Access component is required.

If you want to enjoy watching scrambled broadcasting channels, you need to purchase the CAMs and smart cards from a service provider’s sales department. However, broadcasting channels from multiple service providers call for multiple CAMs and Smart cards. Receivers which have only the CAMs and smartcards provided by the one service provider can show several broadcasting channels of the provider. Please refer to manuals provided by service providers for details because the CAM and smartcards are featured with unique menus, apart from menus given by the receiver. Watching "Free-To-Air" channel is available regardless of the CAM and smart cards. As service providers download new information to smart cards if necessary, those who have CAMs and smart cards should always put the smart cards in proper slots.

Inserting a Smart card

A Smart card looks similar to a credit card and entitles you to view and listen to all the channels you choose to subscribe to. The Smart card slot on the receiver can be used for Smart cards only.

1. Open the right-hand cover on the front panel of the receiver.

2. Hold the Smart card horizontally with the electronic chip

(small square-shaped, gold in colour) facing upwards.

3. Insert the Smart card into the top slot.

Inserting the CI (Common Interface) Module

Your digital satellite receiver is equipped with a slot for the Common Interface (CI).

1. Open the right-hand cover on the front panel of the digital

satellite receiver.
