Thisshortinstructionexplainsthemostimportantfunctionstoensurethatyoucandirectlywatchtelevisionandmakerecordingswith
yournewdigitalreceiver.Pleasenote,additionaladjustmentsmayberequired.
Pleasereadthegeneralsafetyinstructionscarefully.
1.1. Connections
Note:
Donotconnectthedigitalreceivertothemainpoweryet.
1.1.1.Connection to the terrestrial
antenna
The terrestrial antenna is connected directly to a digital
receiver on the “ANT in” connector of the Tuner 1, by
means of a coaxial cable. Use two loop-through cables
(suppliedwithunit)tomakealoopthroughbetweenTuner1
andTuner2withtherstcableandbetweenTuner2andthe
RFModulatorwiththesecondcable(seepicture4)

1.1.2. Connection to the TV set
TheDigitalreceiverandTVsetareusuallyconnectedbymeansofaSCARTcable(suppliedwithunit).Simplyconnectthetwoendsof
thecablewiththemainSCARTsocketontheTVsetandwiththeTVSCARTsocketonthereceiver,respectively.TheSCARTconnection
ensuresthataudioandvideosignalsaretransmittedtotheTVsetinoptimumquality.Inaddition,useanRFantenna(coaxial)cableto
connectthe“RFOUT“onthemodulatorwiththeantennainputsocketoftheTVset.Inthisway,theterrestrialantennaconnectionislooped
throughthereceivertothe
TV set (see picture 5). If
theTVsetisnotequipped
withaSCARTsocket,itis
enoughto connectan RF
antenna(coaxial)cableas
described. The digital TV
programmecurrentlybeing
receivedisconvertedinthe
receivertoaUHFchannel
(channel selectable via
theinstallationmenu),and
istransmittedtotheTVset
viatheRFantennacable.

IncasethatyourTVsetisequippedonlywithaS-VIDEOinputsocket,youcanusetheS-Videooutputonthedigitalreceiverand
connectyourTV setviacable to
provide optimum quality of the
videosignal.Toprovideanaudio
signaltotheTVsetitisnecessary
to connect the Audio L/R output
onthe digital receiverwithaudio
inputonyourTVset.Inaddition,
useanRFantenna(coaxial)cable
to connect the “RF OUT“ on the
modulatorwiththeantennainput
socketoftheTVset.Inthisway,
theterrestrialantennaconnection
islooped through the receiverto
theTVset(seepicture6).

In case your TV set is equipped only
withaCVBSinputsocket,youcanuse
theCVBSoutputonthedigitalreceiver
and connect your TV set via cable to
provide optimum quality of the video
signal.ToprovideaudiosignaltotheTV
setitisnecessarytoconnecttheAudio
L/Routputonthedigitalreceiverwiththe
audioinput on yourTV set.Inaddition,
use an RF antenna (coaxial) cable to
connectthe“RFOUT“onthemodulator
withtheantennainputsocketoftheTV
set.Inthisway,theterrestrialantenna
connectionisloopedthroughthereceiver
totheTVset(seepicture7). 

1.1.3. Connection to a DVD or
video recorder
Just as the TV set, the DVD or video recorder is
connected to the receiver via a SCART connection.
Use the VCR SCART socket for this purpose (see
picture8).
If you also have a video recorder connected to the
terrestrial antenna cable, this terrestrial antenna
connection should run rst from the receiver to the
video recorder and only from there to the TV set.
Asinacasetheaudioandvideosignalshavetobe
modulatedforhigh-frequencytransmissiononaUHF
channel,signalqualityisnotasgoodcomparedtoa
connectionwithaSCARTcable.

1.1.4. Connection to a Hi-Fi system
The audio quality of digital TV and radio programmes
canbeenjoyedevenmorewhenreproducedthrougha
Hi-Fisystem.Todothis,useaRCAcinchstereocable
toconnectthesocketsmarkedAudioL/Ronthereceiver
tooneoftheinputsofyourHi-Fisystemmarkedeither
Line,Aux,SpareorExtra(seepicture9).

Ifyour Hi-Fisystem isequipped withadigital
audioinput,,youmayuseadigitalRCAcinch
cable to connect the electrical (Coax) digital
audiooutputofyourreceiver(socketDIGITAL
AUDIO COAX) to your Hi-Fi or Dolby Digital
system.  The receiver is also equipped with
an optical digital output. If your Hi-Fi system
is equipped with an optical audio input, you
mayuseanopticalcabletoconnectyourHi-Fi

1.2. Connection to main power
supply
After all the connections are done you can
connectyourdigitalreceivertothemainpower.
Justbeforepluggingapowercableintothewall
connector put the power switch, on the rear
panel(17),inposition0.
1.3. Switching on your receiver
