The detachable infrared sensor allows the receiver to be in- stalled hidden from view. All that is necessary is for the in- frared sensor to be within the reception area of the infrared signals from the remote control.
  • Page 5: Safety Instructions

    Safety instructions Sicherheitshinweise The following section contains important information relating to operation, place of installation and connecting-up of the receiver. Read these notes carefully before putting the unit into operation. Important notes regarding operation Extended absence/Thunderstorms During periods of extended absence or at the onset of thunderstorms always dis- connect the unit from the supply, or withdraw the mains plug if the power supply unit is used.
  • Page 6: Important Notes For Siting And Installation

    If the feeder system (LNB) is supplied with an external supply voltage and the LNB supply voltage is not used for polarity switchover (e.g. Kathrein single-cable feeder system UAS 330), the receiver‘s LNB supply must be set to “OFF”(refer to section: “Initial settings, LNB supply voltage“).
  • Page 7: Connecting Up And Putting Into Operation

    Please take note of guidance in section: “Safety- and Installation Instructions” Installing the receiver The UFD 345 satellite receiver is suitable for mobile use in motor homes or cara- vans, but can also serve as a fixed station in the home.

    Connecting up and putting into operation Connect inner hollow conductor plug to the power supply socket (6). Caution! If the power supply cable is modified or a different one is used, it is essential to check for correct polarity. Incorrect polarity will result in damage to the receiver. For fixed applications use the accompanying power supply unit 230 V~/16 V=.

  • Page 15: Programming Tv Programmes

    Programming TV programmes Programmieren von TV-Programmen The satellite receiver has already been factory pre-programmed for satellite re- ceiving systems with feed systems (receiving system) which have an oscillator fre- quency of 9.75 GHz. All of the programmes set up are listed in the table enclosed. If your satellite receiving system uses a feed system with a different oscillator fre- quency, the receiver only needs to be matched to the feed system oscillator fre- quency during the installation.
