  • Page 13: Description

    Description With the receiver you can receive unencrypted digital satellite programmes (free-to-air) via a satellite dish. You do not need to programme the receiver for the time being. The most important broadcasters and satellites are pre-programmed. The satellite dish must be aligned to the desired satellite. The receiver searches for additional new programmes as soon as you launch the automatic transmitter scan for this satellite.

  • Page 16: Connecting The Receiver

    Connecting the Digital Satellite Receiver The receiver is connected to your satellite dish via pre-installed satellite cable. It is recommended that the satellite cable is installed by a qualified competent person. Do not connect the receiver to the mains power supply until you have connected it properly to all devices and to the dish.
  • Page 17: Fitting The Satellite Cable Illustration

    Satellite Cable fitting Instructions Fitting the Satellite Cable (Assembly diagram on the following page) For fitting the F-connector onto the coaxial cable you need wire strippers and wire-cutting pliers. Cut 8 mm of coaxial cable at each end down to the inner core. Carefully strip 10 mm of the outer insulation off, so that the braiding is free.
  • Page 18 F-Type Connector fitting Instructions Screw the F-connector of the coaxial cable onto the “LNB IN” connection on the receiver. The other end of the coaxial cable should be firmly screwed onto the LNB.
  • Page 19: Scart Cable Connection

    Connection with SCART Cable Connection with a SCART cable Plug the SCART cable into the “TV” SCART socket on the receiver. Connect the SCART cable to the TV set. Follow the operating instructions of the TV set. If you wish to connect a video recorder, plug a SCART cable into the “VCR” SCART socket on the receiver.
  • Page 20: Phono / Av Cinch Cable Connection

    Connection with Phono / AV Cinch Cable If you wish to connect a stereo system, connect the Phono AV connector with the “AUDIO R” and “AUDIO L” sockets of the receiver. Caution! Never connect the Phono input of your stereo system with the receiver, which can destroy your stereo system.
  • Page 21: Connection Of A Digital Audio Receiver

    Connection Diagram Connection of Coaxial Digital Output Plug the coaxial cable into the “COAXIAL” connection on the receiver. Connect the coaxial cable with the digital audio receiver. Aligning the Satellite Dish We recommend you have the system and cable installed by a qualified competent person.
  • Page 22 Aligning the Satellite Dish Continued Caution! Connect the satellite cable to the LNB and receiver first. Plug receiver in to the mains socket and turn on. Follow the instruction manual to align the dish Screw the F-type connector onto the LNB screw connection. Fit the dish on a south easterly wall with a clear line of site.
  • Page 23 Aligning the Satellite Dish Continued You must have this field of vision when you stand behind the Dish. Nearly all common satellite positions are located within this 90-degree angle, such as for example Astra 19.2 degrees East, Eutelsat Hotbird 13 Degrees East, Astra 28.3 Degrees east of south, Türksat 42 degrees East.
  • Page 24 Aligning the Satellite Dish Continued First step: Switch your TV set on. Please take care that your TV set is adjusted to the receiver. With a SCART connection the TV set must be on the appropriate AV channel. Second step: Now switch the receiver on.
  • Page 25 Aligning the Satellite Dish Continued Note: This installation method requires 2 people. Now turn your dish slowly to the east (left) while watching your TV set, until the recep- tion part is pointing directly east, that is, turn it through 90 degrees. See Fig.03. With digital satellite reception the receiver receives the transmitter signal with a slight time lag.
