1.1 Features
The TF 5010 PVR Masterpiece digital receiver is fully compliant
with the international Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) stan-
dard, and can receive digital broadcasts. For its operation you
need an antenna, which must be installed appropriately.
NOTE
In general we equate a channel with a frequency. Unlike ana-
logue broadcasts, however, digital broadcasts are not all as-
signed to their own frequencies; instead, multiple television
broadcasts are transmitted through a single frequency. The fre-
quency in digital broadcasting is usually called transponder. To
reduce confusion in this manual, the word service is preferably
used than channel as a term to indicate one television or radio
broadcast.
The TF 5010 PVR Masterpiece digital receiver has the following
features:
• Supports DiSEqC 1.0, DiSEqC 1.1, DiSEqC 1.2 and US-
ALS.
