Important Information
Wiring the plug (UK and Eire only)
The mains lead on this product is already fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded)
plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the pin face of the
plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 of
the same rating fuse must be used.
If the fuse cover is detachable, always refit the cover after replacing the fuse.
NEVER use the plug with the fuse cover omitted.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off, after
having first removed the fuse, and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If this
new plug contains a fuse, its value should be the same as that removed from
the non-rewireable plug.
The severed plug must be destroyed immediately to avoid possible shock
hazard.
If you need to replace the mains plug, follow the instructions given below:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE - Neutral (N): BROWN - Live (L).
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
On no account should either of these wires be connected to the terminal
marked E or coloured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over
the sheath of the lead: not simply over the two wires.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

To be able to receive scrambled digital satellite channels you will
need a Smartcard and/or a Common Interface CA (Conditional Ac-
cess) module from the Service Provider of your choice.
The Service Provider is the programme distributor.
If you are subscribing to services from more than one Service
Provider, you might have to change between different Smart-
cards and/or CA modules.
Please note that a Smartcard and CA module may only be valid
for a single Service Provider and due to this, a specific range of
channels.
The Smartcard and the CA module may also provide access to
special menus not described in this manual. If so, please follow
the instructions from the Service Provider.
Only ”free to air” channels are available without the Smartcard
and/or the CA Module.
Note: The Smartcard and/or the CA module are distributed by
your Service Provider.
After inserting the card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not
remove it again, unless your Service Provider asks you to do so.
This is important, because if your Service Provider wants to
download new information to the Smartcard, the card has to be
in the slot.

This procedure is necessary only if your Mediamaster is con-
nected to the TV with an RF lead.
To tune your TV to the RF signal you might also need your TV
manual in addition to this manual. The steps below explain what
to do if you have been unable to use SCART leads in your con-
nection.
• Plug in your Mediamaster.
Tuning your TV to the Mediamaster
• Select a channel number on the TV that is not currently used
for other TV channels.
• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to tune the TV chan-
nel selector to UHF channel 43 (this is the Mediamaster’s fac-
tory preset UHF channel). If you are already using this chan-
nel, select another non occupied UHF channel between 21to
69 on the TV.
• For example, if you select UHF channel 45 on your TV, you
must change your Mediamaster to the same channel.
Use the or buttons on the front panel of the Mediamaster,
or on the remote, to change to the corresponding channel. You
will see the UHF channel number displayed on the front panel
of the Mediamaster.
• When you have correctly changed the UHF channel number
you will see the ”
Welcome ” menu on the TV screen.
If there is interference from other channels you will have to
change the chosen UHF channel.
• Follow the instructions in your TV manual to store this UHF chan-
nel as the channel used by your Mediamaster. You will have to
select it when you want to watch digital TV/Radio channels.
• Once the welcome message is visible, press the OK button
on the Mediamasters remote control to start the installation
procedure.
If for some reason you have to change the RF channel later,
you can do this by using TV settings menu further on in this
manual.
If you have a VCR connected it must be tuned to a different
UHF channel (between 21 to 69) than the Mediamaster.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”
Tuning Procedure when RF Connections are Used
• Plug in your Mediamaster
• Now you will see the ”Welcome” menu on the screen.
• Press OK on the Mediamaster remote control to start the In-
stallation procedure.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”

General Information
Once you have correctly connected the Mediamaster, you also
have to perform a “First Time Installation.”
During this procedure, helpful information is displayed at the bot-
tom of the menus.
Please note!
The OK button always confirms a selection within these menus,
and pressing it will take you to the next step in the installation
process. However, and this is important, often more than one
value has to be entered in a menu. First, perform all necessary
settings on the different lines. Then, confirm them all simultane-
ously by pressing OK.
You can always go back to the previous menu by pressing the
BACK button.
Use the buttons to move upwards and downwards from one
line to another. Use to change settings.

GB 13
Antenna/Satellite Selection
Select one of the alternatives from line 1 to 4 if you have a sin-
gle antenna equipped with one LNB for receiving signals from
either ASTRA, HOTBIRD, SIRIUS or THOR.
Select one of the alternatives from line 5 or 6 if you have one
antenna with two LNBs or two antennas with one LNB on each
for receiving signals from the combination ASTRA/HOTBIRD or
SIRIUS/THOR. In these cases you also need a DiSEqC switch.
For any other antenna/LNB combination, select alternative 7.
Alternatives 1-6 requires the use of a Universal LNB(s.)
RF Modulator Type
If the Mediamaster is connected to the TV with a RF cable, you
must select the right RF modulator alternative, which is depend-
ent on the country where the Mediamaster is being used.
Select “UK (PAL I)” if this is applicable.
Select “Other (PAL B/G)” for all other country alternatives.
If you get picture but no sound, the RF modulator selection might
be wrong.
Common Menus
The Antenna Adjustment description on the next page will show
you how to proceed from any of the alternatives in the menu
above. The procedure may be summarized as:
• First: Adjust the antenna to the right satellite.
• Second: Check the picture quality from a preprogrammed
channel.
• Third: Start the Channel Search procedure.

GB 14
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
*)About Signal Strength (AGC)
and Signal Quality (SNR)
The different signal indicators at the top of the menu provide in-
formation about two things:
AGC: The AGC, shown with a red bar, will indicate the average
strength of any incoming signal, digital as well as analogue.
SNR: When a programme from a satellite channel shows up on
the screen, the indicator bar will change from showing
AGC to showing SNR. The bar is now red, yellow and
green, and will indicate the signal quality from that specific
channel.
Antenna Adjustment and Signal Check
Pressing OK from the selected alternative in the previous menu
will display the Antenna Adjustment menu (shown to the right)
on the screen.
For each satellite, (e.g. ASTRA, HOTBIRD, SIRIUS, THOR), up to
4 different channels are preprogrammed and shown in the menu.
When you adjust the antenna, your Mediamaster will use the
marked channel to find signals from a satellite. (You can select
another channel with the buttons.)
1Adjust the antenna towards the desired satellite until you have
a high value on the Signal Strength (AGC) *)indicator (the red
bar at the top of the menu.)
2When the antenna is correctly positioned towards the satel-
lite and the signal strength is as good as possible, press OK.
If you have found a digital signal you should then normally get
a picture from the marked channel.
3The bar at the top of the menu will now change to a red/yel-
low/green Signal Quality (SNR) *) indicator for that specific
channel.
If you do not get a picture, you may be tuned to an analogue sig-
nal source. Another reason could also be that the antenna is po-
sitioned towards the wrong satellite.
Press the BACK button and start from point 1again.
The reason could also be that the marked channel is not trans-
mitting at the moment. Press the BACK button and select one
of the other preprogrammed channels in the menu with the
buttons. Then, start from point 2again.
When you have a picture, press OK to go to the “Channel Search
Progress” menu, see page 18, from which you now can start to
download channels.

GB 15
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
Select one of these alternatives when you have a single antenna
equipped with 2 LNBs, or two antennas with one LNB on each,
and want to watch channels from ASTRA/HOTBIRD or SIRIUS/
THOR.
In this case you must first connect the LNBs to an external switch
since there is only one antenna input on the Mediamaster. Once
installed the switch automatically selects the correct LNB for the
selected channel.
This external switch is better known as a DiSEqCTM switch. Since
the switch can be located close to the LNBs, you only need one
cable down to the Mediamaster.
Connection of a DiSEqC switch:
Connect the cable from the LNB intended for channels from
ASTRA (or SIRIUS) to the connector marked LNB 1 on the switch,
and from HOTBIRD (or THOR) to the connector marked LNB 2.
Connect the antenna cable to the connector marked Receiver
OUT on the switch. Connect the other end of this cable to the
ANTENNA input in the rear of the Mediamaster.
Please follow the instructions on page 14, “Antenna Adjust-
ment and Signal Check.”
The difference in this case is that you now will have channel al-
ternatives from two satellites.
Adjust the antenna until the indication value is as good as possi-
ble for both satellites.
Select one of the alternatives ASTRA, HOTBIRD, SIRIUS or THOR
when you have a single LNB pointed towards any of these sat-
ellites.
Then follow the “Antenna Adjustment and Signal Check” in-
structions on the previous page.

General Information
The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster
while watching satellite TV or listening to satellite radio.
Some of the functions described here are dependent on the
Service Provider and can only be used if they are included in
the transmitted programme information.
Please note, that during the Channel Search procedure, the
Mediamaster may download a large number of channels. This
may include channels from various Service Providers, also those
to which you do not have access unless you have a Smartcard
from one of those Service Providers.
If you select a programme to which you do not have access, you
will get a message on the screen. This message may vary, de-
pending on Service Provider and used Smartcard/CA Module.
While viewing, the current channel number will be shown on the
front panel display.
In addition to the normal functions like switching the Media-
master in/out of stand-by, changing the volume etc. (ref. to the
overview of the remote control) there are some other useful func-
tions which will be explained in this part of the manual.
