Preface

Dear customer,

This operating manual is intended to help you make the

fullest use of the extensive range of functions offered by

your new satellite receiver.

We have tried to make the operating instructions as easy

as possible to understand, and to keep them as concise as

possible. To help you understand particular specialist terms

that cannot be translated, we have added a short glossary

at the end of the manual.

The power switch is an environmentally friendly feature.

If you will not be using your receiver for a longer period, you

should use the power switch to disconnect it from the power

supply and save energy. For shorter breaks, you can switch

the receiver to standby on the remote control, which uses

only a minimal amount of energy.

We wish you good reception and much pleasure using your

new DVB satellite receiver.

Yours,

The KATHREIN team

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 is factory ﬁ tted 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!

Make a note of the receiver’s basic settings, so as to

be able to restore them if necessary!

Connection and set-up

The following section is intended speciﬁ cally for specialist

dealers. You only need to pay attention to this section if you

are carrying out the installation yourself.

The “Connection examples” section provides a sample

conﬁ guration.

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 inputs on the receiver to the satellite

reception system.

Use coaxial cable with an F standard connector.

If the F standard connectors are not yet ﬁ tted on the cable,

strip the insulation from the cable as shown in the following

illustration and carefully twist the F standard connectors

onto the ends of the cables until they are securely ﬁ tted.

When ﬁ tting the connector, make sure that no wires from

the braiding are touching the inner conductor, so no short

circuit can occur.

The quality of the reception signal depends on the

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.

The preset will need to be changed in the installation menu

under “DiSEqC™” if tone burst switching matrices are

used in the reception system. Refer to the section headed

“Installation menu”, “DiSEqC™”. Always follow the operating

instructions for the matrix used.

11

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.

Also connect the satellite receiver (VCR/AUX Scart socket)

and the video recorder/PVR using a Scart cable.

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 with an appropriate cable (see “Connection

example”).

Dolby connection

The Dolby Digital output (electrical/optical) is intended for

connection to 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.

Used batteries are special waste!

Do not throw spent batteries into your domestic waste; take

them to a collection point for old batteries!

Electronic equipment is not domestic waste - in accordance

with directive 2002/96/EC OF THE EUROPEAN

PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL dated 27

th

January

2003 on used electrical and electronic appliances, it must

be disposed of properly.

Please take this unit to a public collection point intended for

this type of disposal at the end of its useful life.
