IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The channels available on the satellites and transponders are subject to continual change. If changes do

occur, the new channels have to be set in the receiver because the factory preset programming corresponds

to the status on the date of manufacture. The information for these settings can be found on the Internet or

in relevant magazines.

Your receiver was equipped in the factory with the latest software version at that time. We are, however,

constantly working on adapting the software to the wishes of our customers and to developments in

technology. The “Software Update” section provides more information on this aspect.

The information in this operating manual was correct at the time of going to press.

We reserve the right however to make changes at any time and without prior notice.

If new software is released for your receiver, and this affects the information in the operating manual

(e.g. changes to the menus and/or functions), if we believe it necessary we will make available a new

operating manual for download under “www.kathrein.de”.

Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time!

If the product is not properly packed, the warranty claim is invalidated.

Make a note of the receiver's basic settings (these are set during the ﬁrst installation), so you can restore

them if necessary!

The term DiSEqC™ used in this operating manual is a registered trade mark of the European

Telecommunication Satellite Organisation (EUTELSAT).

SWITCHING OFF THE RECEIVER AND UPDATING THE EPG

^{By pressing the}ꢀ^{button you can switch the receiver out of TV mode and into standby mode. Pressing any}

of the numeric buttons returns it from standby mode into operating mode.

Every night at 03:00 the receiver automatically starts to update the EPG data. This updates the EPG data

for the ﬁrst 25 channels of the overall channel list. This update happens however only if the receiver is in

standby mode. If the receiver is completely switched off (at the mains) or if it is in operation, the update will

be delayed. The receiver will update the EPG data when it is next switched from operating mode into standby

mode. After updating the data, the receiver automatically switches back to standby. You can however by

^{pressing the}ꢀ^{button break off the update before it is ﬁnished; the receiver then switches immediately into}

standby mode.

CONNECTION AND SET-UP

The following section is intended speciﬁcally for specialist dealers. You only need read this section if you are

performing the installation yourself.

The “Connection Examples” section provides a sample conﬁguration.

Do not connect the unit to the mains until all installation work has been properly carried out. Refer to the

information in the “Safety Instructions” section.

CONNECTING THE UNIT (SAT-IF CONNECTIONS)

Connect the Sat IF input on the receiver to the satellite reception system. Use a coaxial

cable with a standard F connector.

If the F standard connectors are not yet ﬁtted on the cable, strip the insulation from

the cable as shown in the following illustration and carefully twist the F standard

connectors on to the ends of the cables until they are securely seated.

When ﬁtting the connector, make sure that no wires from the braid are touching the

inner conductor, so no short circuit can occur.

The quality of the reception signal depends on this connection!

RECEPTION REQUIREMENTS

Make sure that your own satellite antenna system is equipped at least with a

universal LNB for digital reception in the high-band range.

RECEPTION SYSTEM PRESETS

The presets for the control signals have been made for standard reception systems, i.e. 14/18 V for polarity

reversal and 22 kHz switching signal for low/high band changeover on multi-feed reception systems.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

CONNECTION AND SET-UP

TV AND VIDEO RECORDER CONNECTION

Connect the satellite receiver (TV Scart socket) and the TV set using a Scart cable (see “Connection

Example”). If your TV has a stereo feature, you can receive the sound in stereo via the Scart connection.

Use a further Scart cable to connect the satellite receiver (VCR/Scart socket) to the video recorder/PVR.

For system reasons, the same video signals are to be found at the TV Scart socket as at the video cinch

output.

If you are recording using an external video recorder, remember not to operate the

receiver during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on your

recording.

AUDIO CONNECTION

If you want to play the sound on your hi-ﬁ system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets on

the hi-ﬁ system, using an appropriate cable (see “Connection Example”).

OPTICAL/ELECTRICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT

The ﬁbre-optic output and the electrical digital output are intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital

system (see “Connection Example”).

INSERTING BATTERIES INTO THE REMOTE CONTROL

Remove the cover on the rear of the remote control.

Insert the two supplied batteries into the remote control. Ensure correct polarity of the batteries;

the + and - markings are indicated inside the battery compartment.

Slide the cover back into the housing until it locks in place.

SERIES RECORDING

Series recording depends on the EPG data being kept up to date at all times.

This depends on the receiver being automatically updated at 03:00 (see section

“Important Information - Switching off the receiver and updating the EPG”).

Updating is important because it enables the receiver to recognise for purposes

of recording any changes to scheduled transmission times of the series, provided

these were incorporated in the EPG data supplied by the channel providers in

advance of the latest EPG update.

^{Use the}ꢔꢗ ^{buttons to select the recording mode “Series recording”.}

In series recording the start and ﬁnish of recording are taken automatically by the receiver from the

EPG data. You can specify only a single value for the lead-in and run-on time to be sure to record the

complete programme even if transmission times may vary slightly. The setting of lead-in and run-on time

^{is done using the}ꢔꢗ ^{buttons or the keypad.}

COMMON INTERFACE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Always follow the operating instructions from your Pay-TV provider and the

instructions supplied with the Smartcard and the CA module!

Smartcards and CA modules are not included with this product!

The cards and modules are issued by the respective Pay-TV providers, and contain

the subscriber data and details of the channels for which the subscriber has paid.

These channels are always encrypted.

Contact the Pay-TV provider if you are interested in subscribing to a particular Pay-TV

channel.

You are responsible for the use of the Smartcard in the CA!

The Smartcard sold by the Pay-TV provider, speciﬁc to a particular encryption

technology, is inserted into the CA module.

Store your card and PIN code securely when not in use!

The screenshots below depend on the speciﬁc module and card, and so are only intended as

examples:

From this menu, your card and your PIN code allow you to access various channels from your Pay-TV

provider.

“CryptoWorks” has been selected as an example here. The details can be different for each CA module.

Always follow the instructions supplied by your Pay-TV provider!

Note:

The module displays may be shown in English, even if you have selected German as the

menu language, because the menu is generated directly by the module!

Information for Conax, SECA, Viaccess and CryptoWorks users:

Note that with monthly activation intervals, the programme providers have different

procedures for activating pay TV cards. Activation may therefore be a few days before or

after the beginning of a new month. During this activation period, the CA module and card

must be in the slot, and the receiver must be turned on a set to the booked Pay TV channel.

Follow the instructions from the Pay TV provider.

If your Pay TV card is then still not enabled, we recommend you brieﬂy withdraw the

CA module with the card out of the slot, with the receiver switched on, and then re-insert it.

This information has nothing to do with the properties of the unit; it is merely intended to

assist you.

SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE

CHANNEL PACKAGE

The channel package for a digital transponder normally includes several TV and radio channels. Each

channel package has a ﬁxed assignment for the transponder transmission frequency, for polarisation

(horizontal or vertical), for the symbol rate and for the Viterbi rate or error rate.

DISEQC™

DiSEqC™ (Digital Satellite Equipment Control) is a communication system between a satellite receiver

(master) and the peripheral satellite components (slaves), such as LNBs, multi-switches, rotating antenna

systems.

It is a single master/multi-slave system, i.e. there is only ever one master in the satellite system. All activities

start from the master.

DISEQC™ COMPONENTS

If DiSEqC™ switching matrices are cascaded, the master receiver must transmit the DiSEqC™ signal

several times, so that all DiSEqC™ multi-switches in the cascade receive their commands.

These days, DiSEqC™ components (slaves) must be reverse compatible, i.e. respond to the analogue

switching criteria from receivers that are only equipped with H/V and 22 kHz control signals.

A DiSEqC™ switching matrix will work with analogue switching criteria until the DiSEqC™ command from

the master is received. All analogue switching criteria are then ignored.

DVB MPEG-2

DVB is the abbreviation for Digital Video Broadcasting. DVB-S refers to the transmission method

(S = satellite). MPEG is the abbreviation for Moving Picture Experts Group, a working group that

formulates internationally applicable standards for the digital compression of video and audio. MPEG-2 has

established itself as the standard for compression of digital TV signals. MPEG-2 works up to a data rate

of 100 Mbit/s.

EB/NO RATIO

The Eb/No ratio is a measure of the signal to noise ratio of a digital signal. The value is not identical to

the C/N value familiar from analogue reception technology. At Eb/No values below 5 dB, reception is not

normally possible.

FEC

FEC is the abbreviation for “Forward Error Correction”. The FEC error rate corresponds to the Viterbi rate.

SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE

PID

The PID (Packet IDentiﬁcation) number is an identiﬁcation number for video signals and audio signals in

the digital data stream of DVB-MPEG-2 signals. The receiver uses the PID number to create a unique

assignment for the video and audio data transmission. The PCR PID is the identiﬁcation number for

the synchronization signal. The PID-PCR is normally identical to the video PID. For programmes

broadcast in multiple languages, the audio PD can be entered manually to assign a different language

to the TV programme. After the PID is entered, the digital receiver automatically selects the audio data

identiﬁed by the PID number from the data stream and assigns it to the video signal.

SYMBOL RATE

The symbol rate describes the quantity of data that is transmitted per second. The symbol rate is measured

in MSymbols/s and is equal to the number of symbols received per second.

TRANSPONDER

A transponder is a frequency converter which receives TV and radio signals broadcast from the earth,

converts them and then rebroadcasts them to the earth at a different frequency. A satellite carries several

transponders.

Analogue transponders transmit only one TV channel and possibly multiple radio channels on a single

transmission frequency.

Digital transponders transmit several TV and several radio programmes simultaneously on a single

transmission frequency. If a programme provider is broadcasting several TV channels via a digital

transponder, we refer to the provider's channel package. The terms “digital transponder” and “channel

package” have the same meaning.

VIDEO-BIT-RATE

The video bit rate describes the quantity of data from the digitised video signal that is transmitted per

second.

VITERBI RATE

The Viterbi rate (code rate, error rate) characterizes the error protection used by the programme provider.

The DVB standard provides the following values: 1/2 - 2/3 - 3/4 - 5/6 - 7/8
