Operating manual
DVB cable receiver
UFC 662sw
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The channels available on the cable network are subject to continual change. When such changes occur
it is necessary to reset the channels. The information for these settings can be found on the Internet
or in relevant magazines.
The information in this operating manual was correct at the time of going to print. 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!
Before you switch off the receiver using the power switch, you must switch the remote control into
stand-by mode by pressing the stand-by button. In stand-by mode, any changed data that is broadcast
will be saved by the receiver. Once the receiver is in standby mode it can be fully switched off at any
time at the power switch at the front of the unit. Do not switch the receiver off at the power switch
when it is in operating mode! This can lead to a loss of data and corruption of the software.

-
-
-
the exact designation (e.g. UFC 662sw)
the part number and
the serial number of the unit.
You do not need this information in order to operate the unit. If however, contrary to
expectations, you need to make a claim under warranty and you do not have the packaging
for the receiver to hand, you can find the above information about the unit on this sticker.
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 RECEIVER
Connect the RF input of the receiver to the antenna socket. For this, use a coaxial cable
with a plug to with the F standard or the IEC standard (in combination with the F adapter
supplied with the receiver).
If the IEC connector is not yet fitted to the cable, strip the insulation from the cable as
shown in the following illustration and carefully fit the connector on to the end of the cable
so that it is securely fitted.
Fitting a plug to the
“F” standard
Fitting a plug to the
“IEC” standard
Lengthwise slits (3x)

CONNECTION AND SETUP
TV AND VCR CONNECTION
Connect the cable receiver (HDMI or alternatively TV Scart socket) and the TV set using an HDMI or
Scart cable (see “Connection example”). If your TV is stereo, you can receive the sound in stereo via
the HDMI or Scart connection.
For system reasons, the same video signals are to be found at the TV Scart socket as at the video cinch
output.
Use a Scart cable to connect the cable receiver (TV Scart socket) to the video recorder/PVR.
Connecting a video recorder/PVR to the TV Scart socket allows you only to
record. It does not allow you to play back on the TV set via the receiver. If you
are recording via an external video recorder/PVR, 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”).
ELECTRICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT
The electric digital output is 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 batteries supplied into the remote
control. Ensure correct polarity of the batteries; the + and – markings as indicated inside the battery
compartment. Slide the cover back onto the housing until it locks in place.

COMMON INTERFACE
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 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!

SETTINGS
ꢂ
Inserting the CA module into the CI
The Common Interface (CI) ꢂ of the UFC 662sw is suitable for insertion of a CA (Conditional Access)
module and is located at the rear of the receiver. The CA module ꢁ draws in the Smartcard
ꢀ
(chip contacts pointing downwards and towards socket strip) which it then inserts into the CI slot ꢂ.
The Smartcard should be inserted into the CA module without exerting excessive force.
This also applies to inserting the CA module into the CI slot!
Do not use a lot of force and follow the instructions supplied with the Smartcard and the CA module.
To remove the CA module, pull the CA module back out of the Common Interface.
The screenshots below depend on the specific module and card, and so are only intended as
examples:
Press the
button to access the menu generated by the CA module:
ꢄ
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!
51
SETTINGS
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 receiver; it is merely intended to
assist you.

CONNECTING UP THE VIDEO/PVR
For details of how to connect an external recorder to the PVR, refer to the connection diagram in the
“Connection and Setup” section in this manual, and to the instructions for the external recorder.
RECORDING
In order to make a VCR recording (Record), the cable receiver must be switched on, or the timers must
be pre-programmed (see “EPG” “Recording (timer)” section).
Connecting a video recorder/PVR to the TV Scart socket allows you only to
record. It does not allow you to play back on the TV set via the receiver. If you
are recording via an external video recorder/PVR, remember not to operate the
receiver during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on
your recording.
