Receiving digital satellite channels
In order to use your new DSR 1750 MICRO digital receiver
you need a digital-compatible satellite antenna, which must be
installed and aligned to the desired satellites (for example Astra and
EutelSat/Hotbird).
Unlike broadcasts of analogue satellite channels, not every digital
TV or radio station is assigned to one transmission frequency, but
several TV and/or radio stations are broadcast by one transponder.
To help you with the choice and settings for satellite channels, a
selection of TV and radio stations have already been prepro-
grammed for this device. You can start a channel search to ensure
that any new satellite channels are available on your device.
You can find out how this works and what you need to observe on
page 29 of this operating manual.
Of course, you can easily program new satellite channels. You can
find the latest transponder information on the teletext pages of
various broadcasters, in a current satellite TV magazine or on the
Internet.

Special features of your Digital Satellite Receiver
The DSR 1750 MICRO digital receiver can receive and process all
unencrypted digital channels.
This digital receiver has a built-in digital receiver unit for satellite
channels. The receiver unit converts the signals from digital satellite
channels to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
To ensure your new digital receiver always uses the latest program
data and operating software, it is first necessary to conduct an
update.
Using the Astra 19.2° East satellite, you can update the device
software of the satellite receiver.
You can find out how this works and what you need to observe on
page 32 of this operating manual.
The TV guide informs you of any schedule changes at short notice,
and also provides an overview of all the channels’ schedules for the
next few hours.
Detailed information on individual television programmes is
available at the touch of a button.
This digital receiver has a highly comprehensive, user-friendly menu
system.
The menu is displayed on the television screen, and the functions of
the remote control buttons are explained.
This receiver is fitted with the Digi 200 chassis for upgrading
GRUNDIG televisions.
The user guide for the receiver can be integrated into the television
user guide by following a brief installation procedure. The receiver
can be controlled with the television remote control once it is
installed. The remote control, infrared receiver and power supply
for the receiver will then no longer be necessary.

SET-UP AND SAFETY___________________________
To ensure that this high-quality and user-friendly digital receiver
provides you with many years of entertainment, please observe the
following instructions:
This digital receiver set is designed to receive video and audio
signals. Any other use is expressly prohibited.
When setting up the device, make sure the mains plug is easily
accessible.
If the digital receiver is subject to a sudden change in temperature,
for example when brought in from the cold to a warm room, leave
it to stand for at least two hours before you connect it to the mains
supply.
Do not expose the digital receiver to moisture of any kind.
The digital receiver is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use
it outdoors, make sure it is protected from moisture such as rain or
splashing water.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the
digital receiver is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning
strike to the mains or the antenna.
Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
Never open the digital receiver casing under any circumstances.
Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper
handling.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched
on.
Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Do not plug in the power supply of your device until you have
connected the external equipment and the antenna.
Make sure the power supply is freely accessible.

Initial setup
There are several way to set stations on your Digital Satellite
Receiver
In option 1,
you select the menu language for your device, the country in which
your Digital Satellite Receiver is situated and any alterations
required for your TV device.
The Digital Satellite Receiver is already preprogrammed with
stations of the Astra 19.2° East satellite. No further settings are
necessary.
The preprogrammed stations are transferred to the channel list.
You should use Option 2
if you wish to receive stations from various satellites and are familiar
with the configuration of the reception system (antenna, LNB
frequencies, multiswitch).
The settings are described on page 14.
Searching for new stations
New satellite channels are frequently added or satellite data is
changed. We therefore recommend that you start an automatic
search from time to time on the digital receiver.
The settings are described on page 29.
If the station search does not find a particular station automatically,
it can search for it using the manual search. To do this all the
parameters for the station must be correctly entered. You can find
the latest transponder information on the teletext pages of various
broadcasters, in a current satellite TV magazine or on the Internet.
These settings are described on page 30.
