Installation Guide
1. Introduction
The BGT3595 Dual DVB‐T, dual DVB‐S/S2, Analogue
product is designed to support the reception of
broadcast, Standard Definition (SD) and High
Definition (HD) program streams to a Personal
Computer system. The product also supports the
analogue capturing of program content from locally
connected audio/video equipment. Windows Media
Center operating systems or a TV software
application is required to process the streams from
the BGT3595 either to a recorded file or for viewing
on an appropriate display monitor.
Windows 7 Media Center is required for support of
both terrestrial and satellite broadcast reception.
2. Pack Contents

3. Hardware Overview
The BGT3595 is an analogue terrestrial, dual digital
terrestrial, dual satellite, audio/video baseband
capture PCTV product. The hardware platform is
implemented on a small size, low profile height multi
layer PCB with a x1 PCI express. The card supports
both ½ height and full height rear panel brackets.
Dual digital satellite RF connections are through 2
independent rear

panel presented
connectors. The relatively high current satellite LNB
requirement is provided via a separately arranged
top side PCB mounted power connector.
A top side LED provides confirmation that this
connector is correctly established. Two further LEDs
associated with each satellite tuner mounted on the
reverse of the PCB illuminate when there are
successful broadcasts receive signal lock.
Digital antenna connection is via a single IEC
connector presented though the cards rear panel. An
internal active RF loop‐through buffer amplifier
ensures equal operational performance of both
hybrid tuners. Two LEDs mounted on the reverse
side of the PCB provide operational status feedback
of a successful receive signal lock when illuminated
for each digital terrestrial channel.
Alternative analogue RF operation is also via the IEC
connector. The product architecture only allows
support of single analogue terrestrial/cable
broadcast stream.
A supplied audio/video adapter cable which plugs
into 9 pin mini‐DIN socket mounted at the bottom of
the cards rear panel provides analogue capture
access attachment for external audio/video
equipment. Video connections supported by the
adaptor cable includes RGB/component video via
phono socket connectors, S‐video via a 4‐pin mini
DIN socket and composite video via a single phono
connector. Audio connection is supported through a
further pair of phono connectors.
