I. Installation of the receiver
This chapter will guide you through the whole installation process of the receiver. Please
read each section carefully to make sure that the system runs properly.
1. Connecting Satellite Cables
The receiver is a Quad Tuner STB which allows you to connect up to 4 satellite, cable, and/or terres-
trial connections. One of the first steps is to connect satellite cable(s) to STB in order to gain optimal
signal quality. You can either choose one of the following connection methods depending on the
equipment you have.
A. Four Separate Satellite/Cable/Terrestrial Cables
In case you have four separate satellite, cable, or terrestrial cables providing different broadcast
signals, you can configure TUNER A Input and TUNER B-D Input independently.
B. Internal Loop-through
In case you have only one satellite cable, connect the cable to input of TUNER A. Then connect the
loop-though cable from TUNER A output to TUNER B input.
C. Combination of DVB-S/-S2/-C/-T/-T2
Connect a various combination of satellite, cable, and terrestrial connection to your TUNER A-D.

2. Connecting the TV (and VCR)
The receiver provides a variety of audio/video connection methods.
A. Connecting TV via HDMI cable
For the sake of the best picture quality, especially for digital TV, HDMI connection is recommended.
Most HDTVs Have HDMI connectors to ensure the highest picture quality. In the rear panel of the
receiver. one HDMI connector is available for this purpose. Connect your TV to the receiver. using a
HDMI cable as follows.
B. Connecting TV via Component Cable
The secondly recommend TV connection for digital TV is vi component cable (YPbPr). However, unlike
the HDMI connection which delivers audio and video signal at the same time, YPbPr connection
requires additional audio connection either via RCA cable (Stereo L/R) or S/PDIF as follows.
NOTE: When you have an A/V receiver with S/PDIF digital audio input, this connection is recommended
to enjoy the best audio quality, especially for the Digital sound.
