EVERYDAY OPERATION
While using your Matsui DTR1 receiver to the full
there are great many keys to use in different
situations Many of the menu screens displayed by
the receiver have reminders as to which keys do
what, at the base of the screen In addition, many
screens have further help available which is
displayed when the [i] key is pressed, as prompted
at the bottom right of the screen
Providing your TV set SCART socket has switch
control, pressing the [TV/DTV] key at any time while
watching television programmes will switch the TV
set between displaying the digital terrestrial
television programme and its normal analogue
television reception
CHANGING CHANNELS
You can select the channel you wish to watch in one
of four ways - stepping through the channel list,
selection by number, from the on-screen channel
list, and using the electronic programme guide
(EPG)
To move through the channel list, press the [P+] or
[P-] keys on the remote control Pressing the [P+]
key will select the channel next in the channel list
Pressing the [P-] key will select the previous channel
in the list
Pressing the [P+] key when the last channel in the
list is being viewed will select the first channel
Similarly, pressing the [P-] key when the first
channel is displayed will select the last channel in
the channel list
You can also select the required channel using its
channel list number Channel numbers are entered
using the number keys on the remote control
handset and can be up to three digits long
Hint
The channel list numbers are assigned by the
broadcasters. Because not all channels are
broadcast free-to-air and stored by the receiver,
the channel list numbers do not run
continuously. The fifteenth channel in the list,
for example, may not be channel number 15 but
channel number 17.
When you press a number key on the remote
control, a small box appears in the top left of the
screen to show the entered number After each digit
is entered, the receiver will wait up to two seconds
for the next digit to be pressed until either three digits
have been entered or you do not press a digit in time
The channel corresponding to the entered number
in the box will then be selected
Hint
f you enter a number which does not
correspond to a stored channel, the next valid
channel number is selected instead. f you enter
a number greater than the highest numbered
channel in the channel list, the receiver will
select the last channel in the list.
I formatio Ba er
Whenever you change channel, using the [P+] and
[P-] keys or the number keys, the receiver displays
the channel picture along with an information banner
at the bottom of the screen This will remain on the
screen for approximately three seconds The
information banner can also be displayed at any
time while watching TV by pressing the [i] key on the
remote control Pressing the [i] key again removes
the banner
Hint
Not all channels broadcast the programme
data. f the name and times of the programme
is not available then 'Not available' is displayed
in the information banner.
The information banner gives a number of facts on
the channel selected and the programmes on it The
name of the channel is displayed, along with its
channel list number and an indication of the strength
of the signal received on this tuning channel
The name and the start and finish time of the
programme currently showing on the selected
channel are given, and the current time
-4-

Icons are also displayed in the information banner
and if this channel is a favourite channel (see
ADVANCED OPERATION - Favourite Channels)
favourite channel
If the channel selected is locked (see ADVANCED
OPERATION - Channel Protection), you must enter
the correct four digit code to view the channel
Alternatively, the [P+] or [P-] keys are used to move
to another, unlocked channel
CHANNEL LIST
You can also select the required channel directly
from the on-screen channel list This is displayed
using the Matsui DTR1 receiver's Main Menu First
bring up the menu with the [MENU] key on the remote
control handset
Using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys on the remote
control, make sure that the first item, Channel List,
is highlighted in yellow and press the [SELECT] key,
to display the channel list
6(/(&7
L
Here, you can preview any channel stored by the
receiver before viewing it full screen The complete
list of channels is displayed in pages of 10 channels
at a time, with their channel list number and a
favourite channel icon if appropriate (see
ADVANCED OPERATION - Favourite Channels)
The name and a quarter-screen image of the
channel last viewed is displayed in the top right of
the screen
Using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys, the highlight is
moved through the list to the channel required The
[PAGE UP] and [PAGE DOWN] keys can also be
used to move forward or back a complete page (ten
channels) at a time Pressing [SELECT] now
changes the quarter-screen display to show the
highlighted channel
Hint
From the Channel List screen, it is possible to
edit the channel list, including changing the
name of stored channels or deleting them.
Editing the list is covered in ADVANCED
OPERAT ON - Editing The Channel List. When
using the Channel List to select channels, use
the [LEFT] or [R GHT] keys to ensure that the
highlighted button at the bottom of the screen
is SELECT, so no editing functions are
accidentally begun.
When you leave the Channel List screen, by
pressing [MENU] the channel showing on the quarter
screen is selected for normal viewing on the whole
screen
-5-

ELECTRONIC PROGRAMME GUIDE
The fourth way of selecting a channel is with the
electronic programme guide, or EPG The EPG is
accessed by pressing the Guide key, [GUIDE] Like
the Channel List, the EPG screen displays a list of
the stored channels (in pages of five channels)
along with information on what programmes are being
broadcast
6(/(&7
L
Curre t Programme
The channels are listed at the bottom of the screen,
each with the 'current event' (the name of the
programme showing at that time) and the 'next
event' (the following programme) When the EPG
screen is first displayed, the channel last watched
is highlighted in the list of channels A quarter-screen
image of this channel is displayed at the top right
of the screen along with the channel name and
channel list number
Details of the current programme on that channel
(the name of the programme and, typically, a
synopsis with details of the stars involved, the
teams playing, or similar information) along with the
start and finish times are displayed at the top left
inside the dark blue text window
Hint
f the channel you have been viewing is a digital
teletext channel then no picture will appear in
the quarter-screen window.
Moving the highlight through the list of channels
using the [UP] and [DOWN] keys will change the
programme details in the text window to reflect the
channel highlighted The quarter-screen window
continues to show the channel last watched, so you
can stay watching a programme while at the same
time browse the details of what's on, on other
channels
You may then select the highlighted channel for
viewing on the quarter-screen window by pressing
the [SELECT] key
You can leave the EPG screen, to enjoy normal full-
screen viewing of the channel in the quarter-screen
window by pressing the [GUIDE] key again, or the
[MENU] key
Hint
Not all channels broadcast all the programme
information data. Some channels do not
provide the current and next event data and/or
the programme details. n this case the
programme names and/or the details are not
displayed. This is not a fault with your receiver.
Next Programme
While the EPG screen is displayed, pressing the
[RIGHT] key highlights, in dark blue, the next event
name in the list of channels and displays the
highlighted channel's programme details for the next
event (the programme following the current
programme) in the text window As before, you can
browse through the list, checking the programmes
coming up next on all the channels
Hint
f the programme details text for the current or
next event is too long to fit into the text window
on the EPG screen, a scroll bar appears on the
right hand side of the window and the text can
be scrolled up or down using the [YELLOW] and
[BLUE] keys on the remote control. Using [PAGE
UP] or [PAGE DOWN] keys will display the next/
previous 5 channels in the list.

AUDIO CONTROL
Volume Co trol
The volume level of the sound from your Matsui
DTR1 receiver can be altered with the [V+] and [V-
] keys on the remote control handset Pressing
either key displays a bar graph of the sound volume
on the TV screen
The volume level selected will remain set, even when
the receiver is turned off and on again, until it is
altered with the [V+] and [V-] keys
Hint
The audio volume adjustment for the DTR 1
receiver is independent of the volume control
on your TV set. Be careful that both volume
controls are kept within reasonable levels so
that when switching from analogue to digital
television viewing, or when first turning on your
TV set, the sound level is not suddenly very
high.
You can silence the sound from the receiver by
pressing the [MUTE] key The sound remains muted
until the [MUTE] key is pressed again, the [V+] or
[V-] keys are pressed, or until the receiver is turned
off and on again
While the sound is muted in this way, the mute
symbol is displayed in the top left of the TV screen
The symbol is removed after 3 seconds, but the
sound will remain muted until the [MUTE] key is
pressed for the second time, and the un mute
symbol will display for 3 seconds
Sou dtrack La guage
Some programmes are broadcast in two or more
languages simultaneously The language heard can
be selected from the Language Menu Press
[MENU] to display the Main Menu and use the [UP]
or [DOWN] keys to highlight the Language line and
press [SELECT] Use the [UP] or [DOWN] keys to
highlight the soundtrack language required and press
[SELECT] Normal viewing, with the required
language soundtrack, can be resumed by pressing
the [MENU] key
If the programme has no alternative language
soundtrack broadcast, the Language Menu will not
be available, but a message, 'No Multi Language
Available' is displayed briefly
DIGITAL TELETEXT
Many digital terrestrial television channels not only
broadcast pictures and sound for programmes but
also pages of information on the programmes, the
weather, news and many other topics This digital
teletext can be displayed by the Matsui DTR1
receiver
Some channels are entirely given over to digital
teletext and carry no normal TV programme at all
These dedicated digital teletext channels will not give
a quarter-screen image in the EPG or the Channel
List screen When such a channel is selected, after
a brief pause, they will usually display the opening
page of information automatically
Other channels have digital teletext pages
broadcast alongside the television programme and
often include a reduced-size broadcast picture within
digital teletext pages These usually require the
[TEXT] button to be pressed to activate the digital
teletext pages
In both cases, moving through the different pages
of information is accomplished in a variety of ways,
dependent on the individual broadcasters, but
including use of the [UP], [DOWN], [LEFT],
[RIGHT] and [SELECT] keys to select items from
on-screen menus, and the coloured keys to jump
directly to particular pages
You can exit any digital teletext channel by changing
channel in any of the normal ways You can leave
the digital teletext function of a combined digital
teletext/programme channel, to return to normal
television viewing of that channel, by pressing the
[TEXT] key
-7-

Hint
Calling for the information banner or any menu
on-screen stops the receiver from displaying
the digital teletext pages and they are
temporarily replaced by a blank picture while
the banner or menu is displayed.. Digital
teletext cannot be accessed when the Subtitles
are enabled (See ADVANCED OPERAT ON -
Configuring Your Receiver.
WIDESCREEN
TV sets are available with screens of the standard
(4:3) format and widescreen (16:9) format When
you first installed your DTR 1 receiver you
specified the format of the connected TV (this can
now be altered if necessary; see ADVANCED
OPERATION - Configuring Your Receiver)
Digital terrestrial television broadcasts are also made
in both standard and widescreen formats In
particular, films and dramas tend to be broadcast
in widescreen format to closer emulate the cinema
experience, but even some news bulletins are
widescreen To help get the most from both TV set
and programme when a widescreen film is watched
on a standard TV, or a standard broadcast is viewed
on a widescreen set, your Matsui DTR1 receiver
includes the [WIDE] key
So long as the receiver has been correctly set up
for the TV set connected, a widescreen programme
will always be displayed correctly on a widescreen
set, and a standard format programme will correctly
fill the screen of a standard format TV
With a widescreen TV set displaying a standard
format programme, the [WIDE] key switches
between displaying the picture with black bars down
the sides, and enlarging the picture so that it fills the
whole width of the screen but the top and bottom are
cropped off
With a standard format TV displaying a widescreen
programme, the [WIDE] key switches between
displaying the picture with black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen, and filling the whole height of
the screen but cropping the sides off according to
instructions broadcast with the programme (called
'pan and scan')
The effect of the [WIDE] key on the picture display
is cancelled by pressing [WIDE] again, changing
channel or turning the receiver to standby
Subtitle
Subtitle key Shows/hides subtitles of channel When
the subtitle key is pressed, subtitle ON/OFF
message is displayed

is not switched and the TV operates in analog mode
When the set-top box is in DIGITAL TV mode, this
time the TV scart is switched on and the TV is
switched to AV/RGB mode And also, when there is
no menu on the screen , pressing TV/DTV key will
manually toggle the set top box between VCR mode
and TV mode In VCR mode set top box will display
the output of VCR device , In TV mode set top box
displays its own outputs If box scart mode is not
changed by pressing TV/DTV key , scart mode will
be automatically detected (For example if a dvd
player is connected to VCR scart and powered on
, then the set top box will immediately switch to VCR
mode The set top box will switch to TV mode if dvd
player is switched off )

several times will enter each letter (in both
capitals and lower case), and the number, in
turn, in the character position marked by the
cursor. The zero key enters all the punctuation
marks available and a blank space. With
practise, this is a very quick means of entering
the required letters into the channel name.
CHANNEL AND MENU PROTECTION
CHANNEL LOCK
Some channels broadcast material which you do not
want younger members of the family to watch Any
channel can be 'locked' so that it cannot be selected
for viewing without first a four-digit PIN code being

Hint
f you want the channel and menu locks to work
efficiently and actually protect channels from
access, do change the P N code from the factory
default. Make sure that you choose a number
that is not obvious to others but one that can
be remembered by you.
FAVOURITE CHANNELS
There will be some channels that you tend to watch
more often and some only occasionally Although
some duplicate channels you may want to delete
from the channel list, others although not watched
frequently, you will not want to do away with
altogether The favourite mode allows the most-
watched channels to accessed more easily, leaving
the less-watched channels accessible but out of the
way
When the favourite mode is activated, the [P+] and
[P-] keys cycle through the favourite channels only
and the EPG will list the favourite channels only
(other channels can still be accessed by channel list
number or from the Channel List menu screen)

RE-INSTALLATION
Although your DVB-T receiver will not lose its
settings or stored channels when switched off, you
may wish to re-install the receiver because you
have moved to a different area with different
broadcast frequencies, you wish to reinstate a
channel previously deleted from the channel list, or
you want to watch new channels which have started
broadcasting
Press the [MENU] key to display the Main Menu
and using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys, highlight the
Installation line and press [SELECT] to display the
Installation Menu
You can either perform a First Time Installation,
effectively resetting the receiver to its ex-factory
condition, or just search for channels
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
To reset the receiver, highlight the First Time
Installation line in the menu and press [SELECT] A
warning screen is displayed in case of accidental
operation
Highlight the YES button with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT]
key and press [SELECT] to erase all the channels
and settings and switch the receiver to standby
You can now start again as detailed in Section 1 -
PREPARATION - Tuning In
ADD CHANNELS
The Matsui DTR1 receiver can search for channels
automatically (searching all the broadcast
frequencies for free-to-air channels) or manually
(searching one specified broadcast frequency only
for any channels to be found there)
Press the [MENU] key to display the Main Menu
and using the [UP] or [DOWN] keys, highlight the
Installation line and press [SELECT] to display the
Installation Menu Highlight the Add New Channels
line and press [RIGHT] to display the options Select
Automatic Search with the [UP] or [DOWN] keys
and press [SELECT] A warning message is
displayed This starts the automatic tuning process
as described in Section 1 - PREPARATION - Tuning
In, and searchesthrough all the available broadcast
frequencies for free-to-air channels Previous
channels will be replaced on automatic search
If, alternatively, from the search options menu the
Manual Search line is highlighted and [SELECT]
pressed, the manual search screen is displayed
Highlight the YES button with the [LEFT] or [RIGHT]
key and press [SELECT] to start the automatic
search
This is for searching for digital channels on a single
broadcast frequency The frequency channel
number (21-69) is entered in the box at the top left
of the screen and the received signal level and signal
quality can be observed on the two bar graphs at the
bottom When [SELECT] is pressed, the receiver
searches that frequency and display a list of the
channels found Before returning to the Installation
menu
-14-

Hint
The bar graphs of signal quality and signal level give a good indication of whether any channels
are likely to be found. f only the signal level graph shows a high value then it is likely that an
analogue channel occupies that broadcast frequency. f the signal quality bar is high as well then
it is a digital frequency and digital channels will probably be found.
Again, channels which duplicate those already in the channel list are ignored However, the manual channel
search will find all channels on the broadcast frequency
When either search is finished, press the [MENU] key to return to normal broadcast viewing, to watch the
new digital terrestrial television channels found
