Introduction

The TF 5010 PVR/TF 5510 PVR digital receiver is fully compli-
ant with the international Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB)
standard, 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. How-
ever, unlike analogue broadcasts, digital broadcasts are not
all assigned to their own frequencies; instead, multiple tele-
vision broadcasts are transmitted through a single frequency.
The frequency in digital broadcasting is usually called trans-
ponder. To reduce confusion in this manual, the word service
is preferably used than channel as a term to indicate one tele-
vision or radio broadcast.
