Power cord Operating manual Receiving digital satellite channels In order to use your new DSR 4530 HDD digital recorder you need a digital-compatible satellite antenna, which must be installed and aligned to the satellites (for example Astra and EutelSat/Hotbird). Unlike broadcasts of analog satellite channels not every digital TV or radio station is assigned to one transmission frequency, but several TV and/or radio stations are broadcast on one transponder.

This digital receiver has a built-in digital receiver unit for satellite channels. The receiver unit converts the signals from digital satellite channels to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
Any other use is expressly prohibited. When setting up the digital receiver, make sure it is in a horizontal posi- tion and that the mains socket is easily accessible.
