FOREWORD/IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not switch the receiver off at the power switch directly from the operating mode! This
can lead to loss of data and corruption of the software.
The channels available on the satellites and transponders are subject to continual change. In such cases,
it is necessary to re-adjust the channels as the factory preset programming corresponds to the situation
on the date of manufacture. The information for these settings can be found on the Internet or in relevant
magazines.
Your receiver is equipped in the factory with the latest software version. We are however constantly working
on adapting the software to the wishes of our customers and to developments in technology. The “Software
and Channel List Update” section contains additional information.
Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time!
Any modifications to the receiver software will invalidate the warranty!
You will have to bear the costs yourself for dispatching and repairing any receiver that requires
attention due to modifications to the software other than those provided by Kathrein!
Therefore exclusively use software provided by Kathrein for your receiver. This is available by
downloading from the satellite or from the Internet (www.kathrein.de).
The standby power consumption of < 1 W printed on the receiver packaging is achieved only when
the receiver is in stand-by mode with the display switched off. You can perform the setting in the
following menu: “Main menu”, “Settings”, “Customize screen menu”, “Front display in standby”
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”.
Make a note of the receiver's basic settings, so as to be able to restore them if necessary!
Included in the software for this receiver is software that is licensed under the GNU (General
Public Licence). You can find out how to obtain the source code for the program at:
The term DiSEqC™ used in this operating manual is a registered trade mark of the European
Telecommunication Satellite Organization (EUTELSAT).

SWITCHING OFF THE RECEIVER AND UPDATING THE EPG
By pressing the ꢀ button you can switch the receiver out of TV mode to the standby mode, and back
again.
The receiver has the facility to update the EPG overnight, i.e. at 03:00 the receiver automatically starts to
update the EPG data. If the receiver is in operation at this time, the update is postponed until 03:00 the
following night.
The update time cannot be changed.
During the update, the EPG data for all channels listed in the favourite lists, together with the first 25 channels
in the overall channel list are updated. However, this update is only performed if the receiver is in the standby
mode. If the receiver is completely switched off (at the mains) or if it is in operation, the update will be
delayed (see above). After updating the data, the receiver automatically switches back to the standby mode.
By pressing the ꢀ button you can interrupt the update before it is finished; the receiver then switches
immediately to the standby mode.

Safety Instructions – Important Information
This page contains important information about the operation, installation location and connection of the unit.
Read these instructions carefully before starting to use the unit.
Mains cable
Make sure that the mains cable (power supply cable) is not damaged. Units with a damaged mains cable must be
disconnected from the mains (disconnect mains connector) and repaired by a qualified engineer before setup. Only
use the power pack supplied (if available)!
DANGER!
Risk of death due to electric shock!
Cleaning
Disconnect the mains connector before cleaning the unit. Only use a dry cloth for cleaning and only clean the outer
surface. Never open the unit.
Touching the parts inside the unit carries a risk of death due to electric shock!
Playing children
Make sure that children do not push any objects into the ventilation slots.
Risk of death due to electric shock!
Earth connection
The antenna system must be earthed as specified or equipotentially bonded. EN 60728/11 and any national
regulations must be complied with.
Danger due to surge voltages, lightning strikes!
WARNING!
Mains voltage
Only operate the unit with the specified mains voltage (marked on the rear of the-unit or on the external power pack)!
The unit may only be connected to the mains and turned on once it has been connected to the antenna and to the
TV set or the cable network and PC.
If the mains voltage is too high, there is a risk of fire!
Repairs
Ensure that any repairs to your unit are carried out by qualified personnel. Opening the unit and attempting to repair
it yourself voids all warranty claims!
Improper work on the unit can jeopardise the electrical safety of the unit.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for accidents caused by the user opening the unit!
Connections
Incorrect wiring of the connections can lead to malfunctions or defects on the unit!
Long periods of absence/storms/accessibility of the mains connector
CAUTION!
Always turn off the unit at the mains switch if you will be absent for a long time or there is a storm. Disconnect it
from the mains by unplugging the mains connector. This also applies to the other equipment connected to the unit.
Isolation from the cable network is also recommended. Note any timer programs (receiver) and turn the unit on
again promptly before the recording time. Ensure the mains connector is accessible at all times.
Installation location
All electronic equipment generates heat. However, the heating of this unit lies within the permissible range. Sensitive
furniture surfaces and veneers may become discoloured by the effects of constant heat over time. The feet of the
unit can also cause colour changes to treated furniture surfaces. If necessary, place the unit on a suitable stable
and flat base!
Ventilation
The heat generated in this unit is adequately dissipated. However, the unit should never be installed in a cupboard
or on shelves with inadequate ventilation. Never cover the cooling slots on the unit (e.g. with other equipment,
magazines, tablecloths or curtains)!
Do not place any objects on top of the unit and maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm above the unit, so that the
heat generated can be dissipated with no obstructions.
Moisture, sunlight, heat, naked flames
Protect the unit against moisture, dripping and splashed water (do not place any filled objects such as vases on
top of the unit). Do not place the unit close to a heater or expose it to direct sunlight and do not operate it in damp
locations. Only use the unit in a moderate climate, not in tropical conditions! Do not expose the unit to any naked
flame, such as from a candle! This constitutes a fire hazard!

CONNECTION AND SETUP
The following section is intended specifically for specialist dealers. You need not refer to this section unless
you are carrying out the installation yourself.
The “Connection Examples” section provides a sample configuration.
Do not connect the receiver to the power supply 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 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.

SERIES RECORDING
Series recording depends on the EPG data being kept up to date at all times. The
receiver automatically updates the EPG data when the unit is switched off by
pressing the
button. 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 provider 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 lead-in and run-out time is set
using the ꢔꢗ buttons or the number buttons.
When all settings have been made, press the ꢓ button to save the recording settings. You can view

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 module 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 scrambled.
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!

COMMON INTERFACE
You can find out which Conditional Access module is in the CI slot on the UFS 902 and which Smartcard
is in which CA module from the “Mainmenu” under “Settings”, and the “Common Interface” menu.
Confirmation is by pressing the ꢓ button.
Press the ꢓ button. You will then see the menu generated by the CA module.
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 channel 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 GLOSSARY
AC3
Output for Dolby Digital signal
ASTRA
SES (Société Européene des Satellites) satellite system. Analogue and digital transponders in the frequency
range 10.7-12.75 GHz.
AV programme slot
Preferred programme slot on TV set for external connections such as Scart and HDMI
CAM – Conditional Access Module
Decryption decoder, which uses a smart card to decrypt the coded radio and TV signals.
CI - Common Interface
Internationally standardised interface for CA modules
Conditional Access (CA) system
Controls user access to services and programmes which are scrambled for reasons of copyright or for
commercial reasons.
Data rate
Data bits transmitted per second. Is expressed in kbit/s or Mbit/s. The higher the data rate the better the
quality of the transmitted signal.
Data reduction
Compression of video and audio signals. Redundant information is discarded.
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.
Dolby Digital 5.1
Dolby Digital is a sound transmission that allows digital surround sound to be output on a home cinema
system.
DVB - Digital Video Broadcasting
DVB-S refers to the transmission method (S = satellite, C = cable, T = terrestrial).
DVB-S2
An enhanced DVB-S signal for HDTV with better quality.

SHORT TECHNICAL GLOSSARY
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 no reception is
normally possible.
EUTELSAT
European Satellite operator, based in Paris. Many orbit positions and European customers. Transponders
in the frequency range 10.7-12.75 GHz.
FEC
FEC is the abbreviation for “Forward Error Correction”. A technique for reducing the error rate of data
transmission. Additional bits are inserted into the data stream, so that error-correction algorithms can be
used on reception. The FEC error rate corresponds to the Viterbi rate.
HD – Ready
This is a label created by the EICTA (European Information, Communications and Consumer Electronics
Industry Technology Association) for equipment that is capable of reproducing HDTV.
HDCP – High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
Scrambling system which protects the HDMI and DVI interfaces for secure transmission of video and
audio data. HDCP should be used in Europe for HDTV standard transmissions.
HDMI – High Definition Multimedia Interface
Digital interface for digital video and audio data transmission (preferred for HDTV).
HDTV – High Definition Television
High resolution television with a resolution 6 times higher or finer than PAL or NTSC. However, there is
no compatibility, as the transmission process DVB-S2 and the compression technique MPEG-4 are
used for broadcasting.
The principal features of HDTV are the larger picture format (16:9), twice the number of scan lines
(currently 625, increased to 1,250) and digital sound quality.
High band
Satellite frequency range between 11.7 GHz and 12.75 GHz.
H.264
Another designation for MPEG-4.
LNB - Low Noise Block Converter
Converts the satellite downlink frequencies to 1st Sat IF.
Low Band
Satellite frequency range between 10.7 GHz and 11.7 GHz.
MPEG-2
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.
MPEG-4
A further development of MPEG-2 with even higher data compression, intended for HDTV transmissions.

NID
The channel identification number is also referred to as the Network ID or NID.
OSD – On-Screen Display
Displays by the receiver on the TV screen (e.g. main menu)
PAL
Analogue TV standard
Pay TV
Television channels available on subscription (e.g. PREMIERE). Scrambled transmitters which can be
decrypted only by using the appropriate smart card. As a rule these services are subscription-only.
PCMCIA
Standard for internal decoder interface for pay TV
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 synchronisation 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.
PIN
Personal Identification Number. For this unit the PIN is a 4-digit numeric code which must be entered
to unlock the unit to allow access to certain functions and channels.
Programme 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.
QAM - Quadrature-Amplitude-Modulation
Digital modulation process with phase shift keying, which is used for transmissions in cable networks.
QPSK - Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
Digital modulation process used for satellite transmission. (8PSK is also used in connection with HDTV)

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 has several
transponders.
Analogue transponders transmit only one TV channel and possibly multiple radio channels on a single
transmission frequency.
Digital transponders simultaneously transmit several TV and several radio programmes on a 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.
VCR/DVR connection
Connection for an external recorder (such as a video or DVD recorder)
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) characterises 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
