2 CONNECTING THE RECEIVER WITH DISH SYSTEM
After installing your dish system, connect the coaxial cable from LNB of your dish antenna to
“LNB IN”terminal marked at the rear of the receiver.
All cable connectors should be finger tightened ; do not use any kind of wrench
on the cable over connectors.
The cable should be 75Ϊimpedence coaxial twisted at the end with a“F”type connector.
3 CONNECT RECEIVER TO A TV SAT
Connect your receiver to a TV sat with SCART, if your TV set is equipped for it.
Alternatively you can use A/V or TV out(UHF).
4 CONNECT RECEIVER TO A VCR
Connect the SCART jack from the VCR to the back of your receiver.
Alternatively you can use A/V or TV out(UHF).
5 CONNECT RECEIVER TO A Hi-Fi SYSTEM
Connect a RCA stereo cable from the AUDIO L/R jacks, S/PDIF on your receiver to the LINE,
AUX, SPARE or EXTRA input jacks on your Hi-Fi System.
6 CONNECT RECEIVER TO A DIGITAL AUDIO SYSTEM
If you have DAC with S/PDIF optical cable input, you can connect the STB with it to enjoy
higher quality sound. Connect S/PDIF optical cable to a digital amplifier.
7 LOOP THROUGH
If you have another analogue or digital receiver and you wish to use the same LNB then you can
connect it via the loop through. Connect one of end the coaxial cable to the “IF OUT” on the
receiver and connect the other end to the “LNB IN” on your second receiver.
Now by keeping the receiver in standby,
you will be able to tune and view the channels from the receiver.
1 LOCATION OF THE RECEIVER
Your receiver should be placed under proper ventilation.
Don’t put in completely enclosed cabinet that will restrict the flow of air, Resulting overheating.
The location should be safeguarded from direct sunlight, excess moisture,
