ABOUT THE SMARTCARD AND CA MODULE
To be able to receive scrambled digital satellite channels you will
need a Smartcard and/or a Common Interface CA (Conditional Ac-
cess) module from the Service Provider of your choice.
The Service Provider is the programme distributor.
If you are subscribing to services from more than one Service
Provider, you might have to change between different Smart-
cards and/or CA modules.
Smartcard
Please note that a Smartcard and CA module may only be valid
for a single Service Provider and due to this, a specific range of
channels.
The Smartcard and the CA module may also provide access to
special menus not described in this manual. If so, please follow
the instructions from the Service Provider.
Only ”free to air” channels are available without the Smartcard
and/or the CA Module.
Note: The Smartcard and/or the CA module are distributed by
your Service Provider.
CA modul with Smartcard
After inserting the card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not
remove it again, unless your Service Provider asks you to do so.
This is important, because if your Service Provider wants to
download new information to the Smartcard, the card has to be
in the slot.

Tuning Procedure when RF Connections are Used
This procedure is necessary only if your Mediamaster is con-
nected to the TV with an RF lead and no SCART leads are
used.
To tune your TV to the RF signal you might also need your TV
manual in addition to this manual. The steps below explain what
to do if you have been unable to use SCART leads in your con-
nection.
• Plug in your Mediamaster.
Tuning your TV to the Mediamaster
• Select a channel number on the TV that is not currently used
for other TV channels.
• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to tune the TV chan-
nel selector to UHF channel 43 (this is the Mediamaster’s fac-
tory preset UHF channel). If you are already using this chan-
nel, select another non occupied UHF channel between 21to
69 on the TV.
• If you need to change UHF channel you do as follows:
First you change on the Mediamaster. Use the or buttons
on the front panel of the Mediamaster, or on the remote. You
will see the UHF channel number displayed on the front panel
of the Mediamaster. Then you tune the TV channel selector to
the same UHF channel.
• When you have correctly changed the UHF channel number
you will see the ”Welcome” menu on the TV screen.
If there is interference from other channels you will have to
change the chosen UHF channel.
• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to store this UHF chan-
nel as the channel used by your Mediamaster. You will have to
select it when you want to watch digital TV/Radio channels.
• Once the welcome message is visible, press the OK button
on the Mediamasters remote control to start the installation
procedure.
If for some reason you have to change the RF channel later,
you can do this by using TV settings menu further on in this
manual.
If you have a VCR connected it must be tuned to a different
UHF channel (between 21 to 69) than the Mediamaster.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”
Switching on for the First Time with SCART Connections
• Plug in your Mediamaster
• Now you will see the ”Welcome” menu on the screen.
• Press OK on the Mediamaster remote control to start the In-
stallation procedure.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”

General Information
Once you have correctly connected the Mediamaster, you also
have to perform a “First Time Installation.”
During this procedure, helpful information is displayed at the bot-
tom of the menus.
Please note!
The OK button always confirms a selection within these menus,
and pressing it will take you to the next step in the installation
process. However, and this is important, often more than one
value has to be entered in a menu. First, perform all necessary
settings on the different lines. Then, confirm them all simultane-
ously by pressing OK.
You can always go back to the previous menu by pressing the
BACK button.
Use the
line to another. Use
buttons to move upwards and downwards from one
to change settings.
You can also use the numeric buttons on the remote control to
select a line in a menu and to enter numeric values.

FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
RF Modulator Type
If the Mediamaster is connected to the TV with a RF cable, you
must select the right RF modulator alternative, which is depend-
ent on the country where the Mediamaster is being used.
Select “Normal (PAL B/G)” for all other countries than the
United Kingdom.
Select “UK (PAL I)” for UK.
If you get picture but no sound, the RF modulator selection might
be wrong.
Antenna/Satellite Selection
Select one of the alternatives from line 1 to 5 if you have a sin-
gle antenna equipped with one LNB for receiving signals from
either NILESAT, HOTBIRD, ASIASAT, ARABSAT or PANAMSAT.
Select the alternative from line 6 if you have one antenna with
two LNBs or two antennas with one LNB on each for receiving
signals from the combination NILESAT/HOTBIRD. In these cases
you also need a DiSEqC switch.
For any other antenna/LNB combination, select alternative 7.
Alternatives 1-6 requires the use of a Universal LNB(s.)
Common Menus
The Antenna Adjustment description on the next page will show
you how to proceed from any of the alternatives in the menu
above. The procedure may be summarized as:
• First: Adjust the antenna to the right satellite.
• Second: Check the picture quality from a preprogrammed
channel.
• Third: Start the Channel Search procedure.

FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
Antenna Adjustment and Signal Check
Pressing OK from the selected alternative in the previous menu
will display the Antenna Adjustment menu (shown to the right)
on the screen.
For each satellite, (e.g. NILESAT, HOTBIRD, ASIASAT, ARABSAT
or PANAMSAT), up to 4 different channels are preprogrammed
and shown in the menu. When you adjust the antenna, your
Mediamaster will use the marked channel to find signals from a
satellite. (You can select another channel with the
buttons.)
1 Adjust the antenna towards the desired satellite until you have
a high value on the Signal Strength (AGC) *) indicator (the red
bar at the top of the menu.)
2 When the antenna is correctly positioned towards the satel-
lite and the signal strength is as good as possible, press OK.
If you have found a digital signal you should then normally get
a picture from the marked channel.
3 The bar at the top of the menu will now change to a red/yel-
low/green Signal Quality (SNR) *) indicator for that specific
channel.
If you do not get a picture, you may be tuned to an analogue sig-
nal source. Another reason could also be that the antenna is po-
sitioned towards the wrong satellite.
Press the BACK button and start from point 1 again.
The reason could also be that the marked channel is not trans-
mitting at the moment. If so, select one of the other prepro-
grammed channels in the “Signal Quality” menu with the
buttons.
When you have picture from a TV channel, press OK. The Media-
master automatically starts searching for and downloads chan-
nels from the satellite. Please refer to page 18.
(If you have a good indication in the signal quality menu, but no
picture from any of the channel alternatives, try proceeding with
the channel search anyway by pressing OK).

About Signal Strength (AGC)
and Signal Quality (SNR)
The different signal indicators at the top of the menu provide in-
formation about two things:
AGC: The AGC, shown with a red bar, will indicate the average
strength of any incoming signal, digital as well as analogue.
SNR: When a programme from a satellite channel shows up on
the screen, the indicator bar will change from showing
AGC to showing SNR. The bar is now red, yellow and
green, and will indicate the signal quality from that specific
channel.

Menu
Select this alternative when you have a single antenna equipped
with 2 LNBs, or two antennas with one LNB on each, and want
to watch channels from NILESAT/HOTBIRD.
In this case you must first connect the LNBs to an external switch
since there is only one antenna input on the Mediamaster. Once
installed the switch automatically selects the correct LNB for the
selected channel.
This external switch is better known as a DiSEqCTM switch. Since
the switch can be located close to the LNBs, you only need one
cable down to the Mediamaster.
Connection of a DiSEqC switch:
Connect the cable from the LNB intended for channels from
NILESAT to the connector marked LNB 1 on the switch, and from
HOTBIRD to the connector marked LNB 2.
Connect the antenna cable to the connector marked Receiver
OUT on the switch. Connect the other end of this cable to the
ANTENNA input in the rear of the Mediamaster.
Please follow the instructions on page 14, “Antenna Adjust-
ment and Signal Check.”
The difference in this case is that you now will have channel al-
ternatives from two satellites.
Adjust the antenna until the indication value is as good as possi-
ble for both satellites.

General Information
The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster
while watching satellite TV or listening to satellite radio.
Some of the functions described here are dependent on the
Service Provider and can only be used if they are included in
the transmitted programme information.
Please note, that during the Channel Search procedure, the
Mediamaster may download a large number of channels. This
may include channels from various Service Providers, also those
to which you do not have access unless you have a Smartcard
from one of those Service Providers.
If you select a programme to which you do not have access, you
will get a message on the screen. This message may vary, de-
pending on Service Provider and used Smartcard/CA Module.
While viewing, the current channel number will be shown on the
front panel display.
In addition to the normal functions like switching the Media-
master in/out of stand-by, changing the volume etc. (ref. to the
overview of the remote control) there are some other useful func-
tions which will be explained in this part of the manual.
