Receiving digital satellite channels
In order to use your new DSR 3735 CI digital receiver you need a
digital-compatible satellite antenna, which must be installed and ali-
gned to the satellites (for example Astra and EutelSat/Hotbird).
Unlike broadcasts of analog 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 sel-
ection of TV and radio stations have already been programmed for
this device. You can start a channel search to ensure that any new
satellite channels are available on your device.
How this works and what you need to remember can be found on
page 36 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.
What is Common Interface?
Common Interface (CI) is an interface for DVB receivers.
Encoded stations can only be viewed with a CI module suitable for
the encoding system and the corresponding smart card.
The digital receiver is equipped with a Common Interface slot into
which CI modules from various providers can be inserted.
You can insert the provider’s smart card into the CI module in order
to enable the encrypted stations you want to see.

HDMI transmission
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) transfers digital audio and
video data via a connection without additional file compression. This
means there is no loss in quality.
The bandwidth for video data is up to 165 MHz. Audio data is transmit-
ted at frequencies of up to 192 kHz with word widths of up to 24 bits on
up to 8 channels.
The data is transferred at a speed of up to 5 gigabytes per second. Even
with complex pictures and fast movements, there are no artefacts caused
by transmission.
If your television has a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) input, this is not a pro-
blem. HDMI and DVI are compatible with one another. This means that DVI
signals can be transferred via the HDMI interface (using a DVI-HDMI adap-
ter cable), albeit without audio signals. The audio signal can be fed from
the socket »SPDIF« (digital audio signal) to the television.
Compatibility is also ensured by HDMI using the same copy protection
method as DVD.
Digital copies cannot be made using HDMI. This is prevented by the
HDCP system (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
Special features of your digital satellite receiver
The DSR 3735 CI digital receiver can receive and process encrypted
and all unencrypted digital channels.
This digital receiver has a built-in digital receiver unit for satellite chan-
nels. The receiver unit converts the signals from digital satellite channels
to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
So that your new digital receiver always works with 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. How this works and what you need to remember
can be found on page 40 of this operating manual.
The TV guide tells 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 very comprehensive, user-friendly menu
system. The menu is displayed on the television screen, and the functions
of the remote control buttons are explained.

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 sig-
nals. Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If the digital receiver is subject to a sudden change in temperature,
for example when brought in from the cold to a warm room, let it
stand for at least two hours before you connect it to the mains sup-
ply.
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.
When setting up the digital receiver, remember that furniture is often
coated with various types of varnish and plastic, which often con-
tain chemical additives. These additives may cause corrosion to the
feet of the unit. This may leave stains on the surface of the furniture
which can be difficult or impossible to remove.
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.
Notes:
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 unit of your device until you have
connected the external equipment and the antenna.
Make sure the power supply unit is freely accessible.

In order to receive encrypted stations, you need a Common Interfa-
ce module and a smart card. You can obtain these from a specialty
dealer or the respective broadcasting station.
1Open the cover on the front of the digital receiver.
2Insert the corresponding smart card in the Common Interface
module.
3Insert the Common Interface module in the slot of the digital
receiver.
4Close the cover on the front of the digital receiver.
Notes:
Observe the instructions accompanying the smart card and the
Common Interface module.
To replace the Common Interface module press the button to the
right of the module.

until you have connected the television and the antenna.
The only way to fully disconnect the digital receiver from the
mains supply is to pull out the power supply.
Inserting batteries in the remote control
1Open the battery compartment by removing the lid.
2When inserting the batteries (for example, R06 or AA,
2 x1.5 V) observing the polarity marked in the battery com-
partment.

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 pre-programmed with stations of
the Astra 19.2° East sattelite. No further settings are necessary.
The pre-programmed stations are transferred to the channel list.
Use option 2
if you wish to receive stations from various satellites and are familar
with the configuration of the reception system (antenna, LNB fre-
quencies, multiswitch).
The settings are described on page 16.
Searching for new stations
New satellite channels are frequently added or satellite data is
changed. Therefore we recommend that you start an automatic
search from time to time on the digital receiver.
The settings are described on page 36.
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 para-
meters for the station must be correctly entered. You can find the
latest transponder information on the teletext pages of various broa-
dcasters, in a current satellite TV magazine or on the Internet.
These settings are described on page 37.
