Foreword
The DCB-101 is in general terms designed and operates as
a computer, where basic functions for keys, remote control,
menu system etc. are factory downloaded.
This manual describes the basic functions of the digital-
box. As the software that is controlling the digital-box can
be upgraded via the cable-TV-network, we reserve ourselves
against the fact that functions described in this manual in
time may change.
The manual is only scraping on the surface when describing
all connection possibilities and multimedia services that
the digital-box can handle. This because all services are
changeable and completely dependent on what functions
and services your cable-TV-operator chooses to provide.
The digital-box has a built in decoder and card reader. To
view and use encrypted programmes and services a viewing
card “smart card” is required. This card is subscribed from
your cable-TV operator. Furthermore the digital-box have
a software memory where your cable-TV-operator can
download additional functions and services.
When connecting to the cable-TV-network, your service
provider automatically download software containing their
specific programmes and services. These functions are
described in more detain in the manual provided by your
cable-TV-operator. To get the most out of your cable-TV-
box we recommend that you carefully read this manual
before installation.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Place your digital-box on a protected, dry and well-
ventilated spot. Never put anything on top of the digital-
box as this prevents the necessary ventilation. Like all
electronic devices the digital-box contains sensitive,
hazardous electronic components and should therefore be
placed away from children’s reach and placed so that it can’t
fall down.
Clean the exterior of your digital-box with a dry and soft
cloth. Never let any form of liquid come in contact with
the digital-box as this can damage sensitive components
and destroy it. Never use abrasive pads, scouring-powder
or solvents like alcohol or turpentine. This will damage the
digital-box’s finish.
WARNING !!!
Never remove the digital-box’s cover - risk of an electric shock!
MAINS LEAD CONNECTION
The digital-box should be connected directly to the mains
outlet socket. The use of an extended mains lead is not
recommended. To turn the digital-box off completely, first
put it in stand-by mode then disconnect the mains plug
from the outlet socket.

SECTION 5
CABLE-TV WALL-OUTLET
Connect between the wall-outlet and CABLE IN on the back
panel of the digital-box using the enclosed UHF coaxial cable.
Then connect the digital-box to your VCR with another UHF
coaxial cable, connect between TV OUT on the digital-box and
ANT IN/RF IN on your VCR. After that you connect the VCR
to your TV with yet another UHF coaxial cable, this between TV
OUT/RF OUT on the VCR and the aerial input on your TV.
TV
If your digital-box is connected with UHF coaxial cables as
described above, turn the digital-box on. Select an unused
programme button on your TV and tune until the digital-box’s
menu is visible on the screen. Store the setting on the selected
programme button. The digital-box is factory pre-set to UHF
channel 22. The output UHF channel from your digital-box can
if needed be changed between 22–69. See instruction on page
16.
VCR
If your VCR is connected with UHF coaxial cables, install this in
the same way as described in the TV chapter on this page. Avoid
tuning the digital-box and VCR to the same UHF channel. If the
UHF channel happens to be the same or close on both the digital-
box and VCR interference in the picture may be the result. If this
is the case the UHF channel from your digital-box can be moved.
See instruction on page 16.
Observe: It is not advisable to mute, adjust volume or open any
menus while recording a programme on your VCR. This because all
on-screen messages and menus will be reflected on the recording.
SCART
If yourTV and/or VCR have a SCART connector, we recommend
that you connect it by a SCART lead to this connector. This will
improve audio and picture quality and there is no need for UHF
tuning. To avoid disturbing a video recording, the audio on the
VCR scart is not affected by the volume and mute functions.

11
EXTERNAL AMPLIFIER
Connecting the digital-box to an external amplifier or home
cinema equipment will improve the sound considerably. A
connection cable is enclosed. The volume can be adjusted
directly from your remote control.
MODEM
Socket to connect modem to the public telephone line.
(Aimed for future services)
PARALLEL PORT
For example to connect a personal computer.

OTHER EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Which sort of external equipment connectable to your
digital-box is in large controlled and decided by your cable-
TV-operator, who downloads the various functions and
applications in to your digital-box. Contact your cable-TV-
operator for information about what sort of equipment that
can be connected.

coming services such as cash money cards etc.
ON SCREEN MESSAGES
When starting the digital-box from standby, initially a start
up picture is displayed showing an hour-glass or similar. At
the same time the message “init” is shown on the front
panel display. This to indicate that the digital-box is busy
connecting to the cable-TV network and downloading
necessary data to its internal memory.

Installing the digital-TV-box
The first time you install your digital-TV-box or when you move to another
region or move the box to another cable-TV-provider, a few settings under
the menu “Installation – Network configuration” need to be changed. The
two settings that are to be changed are Network number and Frequency.
Information about these two settings is obtained from your cable-TV-operator.
OBSERVE! To be able to set up the box, a valid smart card needs to be placed
in the left-hand card reader.
The digital box is ready to be used as soon as the installation procedure
described on the following pages is completed.
INSTALLATION
Press the MENU-key to display the basic menu.
Select INSTALLATION with the navigation keys up/down.
Press the OK-key to confirm your choice.
To protect the installation menus, these are locked and can only be opened
with a so-called “secret code”. This code is factory pre-set to “0000”.
INSTALLATION CODE
Enter your secret code, the factory-set default code is “0000”. The first
segment flashes until a digit is entered and the second begins to flash
etc. As soon as the digit is entered a star replaces the segment.
Using the left arrow button on the remote control, it is possible to
return and modify a digit already entered before the complete code is
confirmed by pressing the OK- key. In this case the digit becomes a
flashing segment again, indicating that a new digit may be entered.
If the code entered is incorrect, the following error message is displayed
on the screen. Then re-enter the code and press OK to confirm.
You may change the default code “0000”: se on page 17.

tal-box during updating.
When new software is available for updating your box, this is normally
presented to you when the digital-box is started from stand-by to on position.
It is therefore recommended that you once in a while turn the box off (stand-
by) and then on again to check if there is any update available.

As soon as new functions and services become available, an on screen
message will be displayed which offers you to complete the update.
You can accept by pressing OK or ….
…. postpone the update by pressing QUIT. If you select to postpone, the
update message will appear each time you start the box from stand-by.
