SHDFSAT12
Connect to a Dish
2
To receive freesat, you must
connect your unit to an appropriate
satellite dish.
For safety reasons and to
provide reliable reception,
we strongly recommend
that the satellite dish is
professionally installed. If you
have any questions about the
satellite dish, please consult
your installer.
Place your unit on a firm, level surface close to your TV, a mains electricity socket, and the cables from the satellite dish.
1. Connect the cables from your satellite dish to the sockets on the back of the unit. For full functionality of your freesat+ recorder you will
need to connect two cables from your satellite dish. If you only have one cable, please consult your retailer or installer for advice.
Remove the battery
compartment cover from
the back of the remote
control by lifting it up while
pushing the catch. Insert the
two AAA sized batteries as
shown on the inside of the
compartment. Replace the

Satellite Dish Installation
To receive freesat, you must connect your unit to an appropriate satellite dish.
For safety reasons and to provide reliable reception, we strongly recommend that you
have your dish installed by a professional. You may be able to use a satellite dish already
installed at your home. If you have any questions about the satellite dish, please consult
your installer.
This freesat box requires a dual LNB to enable you to view and record channels at the same
time.
20° - 30°
28.2°
Connecting the Satellite Dish to the Unit
Place the unit on a firm, level surface close to the TV, a mains electricity socket, and the
cables from the dish.
Connect the cables from your satellite dish to the sockets on the back of the unit. For full
functionality of your freesat+ recorder you will need to connect two cables from your satellite
dish. If you only have one cable, please consult your retailer or installer for advice.
Connecting the two cables
• This allows you to watch one TV station and record another. Connect the two separate
cables from your satellite dish to each of the TUNER 1 (LNB IN) and TUNER 2 sockets. For
this, your Satellite Dish must be fitted with a Low Noise Block (LNB) that has at least two
outputs. Please check with your installer if you are not certain about this.
The “F-connector” used for the satellite dish cable connection has a central wire that is inserted into the
hole in the TUNER 1 or TUNER 2 (LNB IN) sockets while the collar is screwed onto the socket. When
screwing on the collar, make sure that the central wire goes into the socket hole and is not bent to one side.
Connecting the Receiver to a Satellite Dish
DO NOT connect this unit to the mains supply until all connections have been completed.
SHDFSAT12_IB_V2.indd 7 13/06/2013 12:19

System and Mains Connections
Ensure your TV is switched o at the mains supply.
1. Connect the HDMI cable supplied to the HDMI socket at the back of the unit and an HDMI
socket on your TV. There may be more than one HDMI socket on your TV. If you are not sure
which one to use, check the TV’s instruction manual.
2. If your TV set does not have an HDMI connection you can connect the SCART connection on the
TV to the TV SCART socket on the unit.
3. A video recorder or DVD recorder may be connected to the unit to record freesat programmes,
back up recordings or play them back. You will need to use a SCART cable to connect the video
or DVD recorder to the VCR SCART socket on the back of the freesat box, connect the other end
to the video or DVD recorder. Check the recorder’s instruction manual for guidance.
You can also connect the unit to an analogue stereo or surround sound system, so that you can
listen to the TV sound through the sound system instead of (or as well as) the TV’s speakers.
You will need a special lead to connect the unit’s TV SCART or VCR SCART socket(s) to the
analogue inputs on your sound system to listen in stereo.
4. If you connect an optical lead between the S/PDIF socket on your unit and digital sound system,
you can listen to the TV sound in digital audio quality, or even in surround sound, depending on
the sound system used and the broadcast chosen.
5. If you want to use the online features of the unit, connect a network cable from the Ethernet
network socket on the back of the unit to either your broadband modem/router or a network
switch in your home network, as appropriate. Consult your modem/router’s instruction manual
for guidance.
6. Connect the mains cable to the mains adapter and then connect to the POWER socket at the
back of the unit. Plug the mains cable into an available mains socket that is turned o.
If you require additional assistance please call our UK Call Centre on 0844 561 1234. Our UK
Customer Contact Centre is open Monday-Saturday 8am-8pm and Sunday 8am-6pm.
When using SCART connections, high denition channels will only be available in Standard Denition.
