Introduction
The T2200 digital receiver is fully compliant with the interna-
tional Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard, and thus is
able to receive digital broadcasts of that standard. For its op-
eration you need an antenna, which must be installed appro-
priately.
NOTE
In general we equate a channel with a frequency. However,
unlike analogue broadcasts, digital broadcasts are not all
assigned to their own frequencies; instead, multiple televi-
sion broadcasts are transmitted through a single frequency.
The frequency in digital broadcasting is usually called trans-
ponder or multiplex. To reduce confusion in this manual,
the word service is preferably used than channel as a term
to indicate one television or radio broadcast.
1.1 Features
This digital receiver has the following features:
• Can store up to 2,000 television and radio services.
2 Introduction
• Can create lists of your favourite services.
• Can view information about the current television or ra-
dio programme.
• Has an electronic programme guide that provides an
overview of scheduled programmes.
• You can play back video files of various formats includ-
ing DivX.
1.2 Controlling the digital receiver
You can operate the digital receiver with the remote control or
the buttons on the front panel.
NOTE
When the digital receiver is off but plugged into a wall
socket, we say that it is in standby mode; on the other hand,
when it is on, it is in active mode. Even when you are not
using the digital receiver, you should keep it plugged into
a wall socket to be in standby mode so that it can run timer
events at any time.
1.2.1 Front panel
The front panel of the digital receiver has buttons to control
the digital receiver, specific lights and a display to indicate its
status. The following indicates what they mean.

and active mode.

2.2 Safety precautions
Please read carefully the following safety precautions.
• The mains voltage must range between 90 and 250 volts.
Check it before plugging the digital receiver to the wall
socket. For the power consumption of the digital re-
ceiver, refer to Table 2.1.
2.2 Safety precautions 9
• The wall socket should be near the equipment. Do not
run an extension lead to the unit.
• The mains plug shall remain readily operable so that it
can be removed easily to disconnect the power.
• The digital receiver shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing water, and no objects filled with liquids, such
as vases, shall be placed on it.
• Do not expose the digital receiver to any moisture. The
digital receiver is designed for indoor use only. Use dry
cloth to clean the digital receiver.
• Place the digital receiver on a firm and level surface.
• Do not place the digital receiver close to heat emitting
units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.
Do not lay any objects such as magazines on the digi-
tal receiver. When placed in a cabinet, make sure there
is a minimum space of 10 centimetres around it. For the
physical specification of the digital receiver, refer to Ta-
ble 2.2.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched.
If the cord is damaged, do not use the digital receiver and
get the cord replaced.

There are several ways to set up the digital receiver. Set up the
digital receiver suitably to your television and other devices.
If you have any problem with your setup or need help, contact
your dealer.
2.4.1 Connecting to the antenna
Whatever sort of connection you have be-
tween the digital receiver and the television,
you need to connect the digital receiver to the
antenna so that it can receive digital televi-
sion broadcasts. Connect the antenna cable
to the ANT IN connector. If you have an-
other digital receiver, you may link it from

12 Setup
2.4.2 Connecting to your television set
For all the following connections of the digital receiver, we rec-
ommend you to use the first connector to get the best picture
quality. If your television does not have a matching connector,
then use the next connector in the following order for a better
picture quality.
1 HDMI connector (HDMI)
2 SCART connector (TV)
You should configure audio and video settings after connect-
ing up the digital receiver. See §4.2 for a detailed description.
To use the HDMI output
If you have a high definition television set,
you should use an HDMI cable for best re-
sults. Plug one end of the cable into the HDMI
socket on the digital receiver, and plug the
other end into the matching socket on your
television.
To use the SCART output
For best results with a standard television set,
you should use a SCART cable. Plug one end
of the cable into the TV socket on the digital
receiver, and plug the other end into a free
SCART socket on your television.
NOTE
You cannot view high definition video by means of the
SCART output.
2.5 Switching on for the first time 13
To make the audio connection
To enjoy Dolby Digital audio, your television
or audio-video receiver must be able to de-
code Dolby Digital audio, and you need to
obtain an S/PDIF cable. Plug one end of the
cable into the S/PDIF socket on the digital re-
ceiver, and plug the other end into the match-
ing socket on your audio-video receiver.
2.4.3 Connecting to your video recorder
The digital receiver can also output video through an auxiliary
SCART connector to another device such as a video recorder.
You need to obtain a SCART cable to link the
auxiliary SCART connector. Plug one end
of the cable into the VCR socket on the digi-
tal receiver, and plug the other end into the
matching socket on your video recorder or
suchlike.
2.5 Switching on for the first time
Now that you have your digital receiver connected, you should
plug it into a wall socket. Ensure that your television set is
turned on and on the correct video channel so that you will be
able to see the display from the digital receiver.
Before switching on the digital receiver, you should insert bat-
teries into the remote control. Open the battery compartment
by removing the lid, and then insert the batteries observing the
polarity, which is marked on the base of the battery compart-
ment.
Press the button on the top left corner on the remote con-
trol. In a little time, you may see a picture displaying a menu.
14 Setup
If you do not see a picture, try pressing the
V.Format button on
the remote control. If after several tries you still get no picture,
check that the television is set to the correct input. If the picture
is good, you can skip to §3.1 to search for available television
and radio services.
CAUTION
If the digital receiver no longer reacts properly to the remote
control commands, the batteries may be flat. Be sure to re-
place only with 1.5 V AAA size batteries, and observe the
following precautions.
• Do not mix different types of batteries, or new and old
batteries.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries.
• Do not recharge the old batteries.
• In order to avoid any risk of explosion, observe the po-
larities indicated inside the battery compartment.
• Do not subject to excessive heat such as the sun and
fire.
• If you are not using the remote control for a long pe-
riod of time, remove the batteries. The manufacturer
accepts no liability for the damage resulting from leak-
ing batteries.
• Batteries, including those which contain no heavy
metals, may not be disposed with other household
wastes. Please dispose of used batteries in an environ-
mentally sound manner. Find out the legal regulations
which apply in your area.

3.1 Searching for broadcasting services
To perform service search, se-
lect the Installation >Searching
menu. You should see a screen
like the left figure. If you have an
antenna booster, you should set
the Antenna Supply 5V option to
On to supply power to it.
16 Service Search
You should set the Search Mode option to Auto for the first
time after connecting up the digital receiver, then the digital
receiver will search for all available services.
To start service search, move down to the Start Search item,
and press the
OK button. The digital receiver will start to
search for services and display a list of television and radio
services as they are found. It is common for no channels to be
found until quite late in the process. When the scan is com-
plete, you will see a message telling you how many services
have been found. Press the
OK button to save the list.
You may choose to only search for the services of a specific
multiplex’s since more than one service are provided via each
frequency. Set the Search Mode option to Manual, then select
your desired transponder at the Channel option. The number
ranges from 5 to 12 (or D to H) in VHF and 21 to 69 in UHF.
You may need to set the Modulation option to match to that of
your desired transponder. If the transponder is of the DVB-T2
standard, you should set it to DVB-T2.
It is possible to search single service in a certain multiplex only
if you know the desired service’s audio and video packet iden-
tification (PID). Set the Search Mode option to Advanced, then
the PID option becomes enabled. Specify the PIDs of your de-
sired service with the numeric buttons.
To stop at any time or to exit without saving, press the
EXIT
button.
