> Do not expose the unit to water in drop or spray form,
and do not place any liquid-filled objects, such as
vases, on top of the unit.
> The unit should be operated only in a temperate clima-
te.
> Under no circumstances should you open the unit! You
are in danger of receiving an electric shock. If it is
necessary to open the unit, this should only be carried
out by qualified persons.
In the following cases you should disconnect the unit from the

Important notes on operation
The use of so-called "On Screen Displays" (see example)
simplifies the operation of the receiver, and reduces the num-
ber of keys required on the remote control. All functions are
indicated on the TV screen, and can be adjusted with a few
key-strokes. Groups of functions that belong together are pla-
ced in “MENUES”.
The function selected will be highlighted in a different colour.
The function keys red, yellow, green and blue are depicted by
coloured bars in the bottom line. These colour bars represent
different functions in the various menues, which can be initia-
ted by pressing the appropriate coloured keys (multi-function
keys) on the remote control. The function keys are only active
when a brief description is shown in the appropriate field.
Help function:
Wherever it is available in a menu, pressing the blue
function key will display a help text, pressing again will end
the display.
Key descriptions and terms used in the OSD menu are
printed in bold type in this operating manual.
For example:
> Use the Menu key to call up the Main Menu.
(Fig.
3-1)
> Now select the line OSD-Sprache Language by
using the arrow keys up down to highlight the
appropriate line.
> Confirm by pressing OK.
> You can exit from the menu either by pressing the
Menu okey or by repeatedly pressing the key Back.
Initial installation
Once you have read the safety precautions, connect the unit
as described in Chapter 4. Then switch on the unit as descri-
bed in Chapter 6. When switching on the receiver for the first
time the installation window will be displayed
(Fig. 3-2). In
order to adjust the most important settings of the receiver,
simply follow the instructions.

4 Connections
The references a b c etc. stated below refer to the
illustration on page 10.
4.1 Mains power connection
The receiver should only be connected to the mains power
supply when the unit has been completely connected with all
other relevant components. This will eliminate the danger of
damage to the receiver or other components.
bWhen you have effected all the connections, use the
power connection switch supplied to connect the
receiver with a 230V/50 Hz power supply.
4.2 Connection to the antenna
aThe cable coming from the terrestrial antenna must be
connected to the terrestrial antenna input of the
receiver.
Where possible you should use a roof-mounted anten-
na. A room antenna may be sufficient where reception
conditions are particularly favourable. When using an
active antenna be sure to switch on the antenna feed
(Point 5.2).
4.3 Connection to a television set
Once you have connected your receiver to the television set
as described above, it may be necessary, before you can
make further settings or adjustments, to adapt the receiver to
the TV standard of your TV set.
Please note Point 5.3 (Video system).
4.3.1 Via SCART cable:
Using a SCART cable connection between the receiver and
the TV set will ensure optimum image quality.
cConnect the receiver (SCART socket TV) and the
TV set (SCART socket) via a SCART cable. If your TV
set is appropriately equipped, it will switch automati-
cally to AV mode, and thus to DVB-T mode, when the
receiver is switched on.
4.3.2 Via HF cable:
If your TV set is not equipped with a SCART socket, you will
have to connect the receiver to the antenna input socket of
the TV set.
If this type of connection is used, sound reproduction will be
in mono only.
dConnect the receiver (Antenna output) to the
antenna input socket of your TV set by means of a
suitable TV connection cable.

You must now tune your TV set to the transmission channel
of the receiver. Select a free programme slot on your TV set
and tune it to channel 41 (refer to operating manual of the TV
set if necessary).
If you do not receive a clear image on channel 41, this may
be the result of a neighbouring channel being set to a pro-
gramme being received from the same antenna. You can
check on this by temporarily removing the antenna cable from
the Input terrestrial antenna socket of the receiver. If
you then temporarily receive a clear image, you should select
another transmission channel for the receiver in the range of
21 to 69.
4.4 Setting the UHF output channel
Proceed as follows:
> Press the Menu key to display the Main Menu. (Fig.
4-1)
> Now select the line Settings, using the arrow keys
up down to mark the appropriate line.
> Confirm by pressing OK.
The sub-menu Settings will be displayed.
(Fig. 4-2)
> Now use the arrow keys up down to highlight the
line Audio Video Settings.
> Confirm by pressing OK.
The sub-menu Audio Video Settings will now be
displayed.
(Fig. 4-3)
> Now, use the arrow keys up down in order to hig-
hlight the blue field, thus selecting the menu line UHF
output channel.
> Now tune your TV set to a free UHF channel in the
range of 21 to 69.
> Then set the new output channel of the receiver by
means of the arrow keys right left.
The receiver will now transmit on the UHF channel
shown on the display.

Your receiver will now check automatically whether the
channel you have selected, as well as the lower neig-
hbouring channel adjoining it, are free (Fig. 4-4). If the
channel is already occupied, a note to this effect will
be displayed
(Fig. 4-5). In this case, please repeat the
procedure until you find a suitable free channel.
> When you have found the optimum UHF channel,
please remember to store this in your TV set memory.
You can now make further adjustments in the menu
Audio Video Settings,or you can press the Menu
key to return to normal operation. This setting will be
automatically stored when you exit the menu.
> If your television set is equipped only with an automa-
tic search function, then simply set any UHF channel
on your receiver, then start the automatic search pro-
cedure of your television set. If necessary, keep
repeating this procedure until you have found a suita-
ble output channel, then store this in your TV set
memory.
> At this stage it may be necessary to fine-tune the
channel on your TV set.
4.5 Adjusting the antenna
Your receiver is equipped with a signal strength indicator to
facilitate the optimum adjustment of the antenna.
> Press the Menu key to call up the Main Menu.
> Now use the arrow keys up down to select the
menu line Settings.
> Confirm by pressing OK.
The sub-menu Settings will be displayed
(Fig. 4-6).
> Now use the arrow keys up down to select the
menu line Antenna adjustment.
> Confirm by pressing OK. The menu Antenna
adjustment will be displayed
(Fig. 4-7)
> Now use the arrow keys left right to select the
channel with the weakest reception signal strength.
> Now adjust the position of the antenna until both bar
indicators show optimum signal strength.
red bar poor reception
yellow bar good reception
green bar very good reception
4.6 Serial interface RS 232
The RS 232 interface serves to carry out updates of the ope-
rating software, as well as to facilitate pre-programming via a
PC.
