3. First time installation

When all the connections on the receiver are ready (section 2.2) and the main lead is plugged in, the
receiver will start up automatically. If this does not happen, press the ON button on the front panel of the
receiver or on the remote control. A easy installation menu will be displayed where you can set different
parameters and then run the channel scan:
1. OSD Language: Use the arrow ◄/► buttons to select a language for the On Screen Display menu
(OSD). Press ▼ to go to the next parameter.
2. Region: Use the arrow ◄/► buttons to select your Country. Press ▼ to proceed.
CAUTION
If the wrong country is selected the channel scan may not detect all the channels available.
3. LCN Mode: When the Logical Channel Numbering option is active, the channels will be positioned in the
list with the broadcaster order automatically after the scanning. Press ▼ to go forward.
NOTE
If the LCN Mode is turn on, we suggest to not change the channel positions in the TV/Radio Channel List menu.
4. Tuner Setting (Antenna Power): If you have an active antenna press ◄/► to power the antenna, this is
necessary when, for instance, an indoor amplified antenna that is powered by the receiver.
CAUTION
With a traditional antenna, like typical rooftop models, or an independently powered antenna, the antenna power option
must be set to off: RISK OF OVERLOAD.
5. Auto Scan:

Start: Press OK to start the automatic channel scan.

LCN Conflict (optional): When the LCN function is active (see above point) and two or more
TV/Radio services ask for the same position on channel list, the receiver will inform about the conflict
and ask the user for a choice. In particular, a list of the involved services will be shown on screen.
For every conflict, use the arrow buttons ▼/▲ to highlight the preferred service and press OK to
select it. Than press EXIT to save and go to viewing mode. Instead, if the user will not perform a
choice, after a few seconds the receiver will solve the conflicts automatically.
6. Additional Settings: Also check and set properly the receiver clock, such as the Summer Time option
(par. 0), and the function of channel auto scan during stand-by (par. 4.2).

4. Receiver settings

The first time installation procedure (chapter 3) will allow the receiver to be used with its basic functions.
However the receiver offers many more advanced features and options that are illustrated in the following
sections.

4.1 Receiver Protection

4.1.1 Password
To modify some settings on menu and view certain protected services, a password has to be entered. The
factory set password is "0000" (four zeros) but it can be changed by pressing MENU and selecting the Setup
menu and then Parental Lock.
CAUTION
Take note and keep the new password in a safe place. If you forget your personal password, use the universal code
"3330" to access the Parental Lock menu and set a new Password.

4.1.2 Parental Control

The Channel Lock option of the menu Configuration - Parental Lock controls the vision of a protected
service. When this option is set on an age level (default setting=18 years) and an event is transmitted with a
Parental Control information equal or greater than the age level defined on menu, the receiver will stop the
vision of the service. To unlock the channel, it's necessary to digit the password.

4.1.3 Advanced Menu Protection (Hotel Function)

The Hotel Function is a hidden utility, which consists in an advanced protection of the receiver. In particular,
it hides the menu and allows the user to use basic functions, such as channel zapping an audio volume
regulation.
During viewing mode, using the remote control, press RED button and input the system password (par. 4.1)
right away to enable/disable that function. Then, an information banner will appear on screen.
