SAFETY PRECAUTION
The lightning flash with
arrowhead symbol, within
an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user
to “dangerous voltage”
and to prevent from a
risk of electric shock.
Warning:
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
don’t open the cabinet. Refer servicing
to qualified personnel only.
The exclamation point
within an equilateral
triangle is intended
to alert the user to
important operating and
maintenance (servicing).
Please read the manual carefully before installing the receiver.
Caution: Never open the device by yourself. Dangerously high voltages are present inside the unit. Refer
servicing to qualified staff only.
When installing the receiver, always unplug the receiver from the mains voltage.
Unplug the receiver from the mains in case of long periods without operating the receiver (for example,
during holidays!).
To prevent shock hazard, do not touch the power plug with wet hands.
Always unplug the receiver before cleaning it or working on the connections.
Do not install the receiver close to strong heat sources, and ensure a good aeration if you plan to install
the receiver in a small cabinet.
Before you start operating the receiver, make sure that the satellite antenna is properly built up, optimally
connected and aligned.
The correct place to install the receiver is, of course, near your TV set and any other A/V signal sources
(DVD, VCR, CD, game console, etc.).
Choose a stable support, in which you can easily lay the necessary connecting cables without stumbling-
danger.
The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.
Do not install the receiver in a place where it can be reached by liquid spills.
Do not put any heavy objects as, for example, a TV-device over the receiver; the receiver could be
damaged.
DO NOT INSTALL THE RECEIVER:
- On an unstable surface
- Subject to direct sunlight
- In high humidity environment
- Outside the receiver’s temperature range (+5°...+40°C)
If the receiver is subject to severe temperature changes, it can suffer from water condensation inside.
Switch off the receiver in these cases for at least 2 hours before resuming operation.

QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE
QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE
Follow next steps for the correct installation of this receiver.
STEP 1: CONNECTIONS
The coaxial cable, with satellite signal, must be connected to the “IF IN” connector. The “TV SCART”
connector must be connected to the TV set.
The receiver also includes an UHF modulator, allowing connecting a TV set or VCR. However the picture
quality will be a little poorer. The modulator has an antenna input and the output range is from channel
21 to 69. This will allow you to mix the existing antenna signals with the output channel generated by
the receiver.
The modulator output is factory preset to channel 38. You can change the output channel in the TV
system menu that you can find in System Setup menu.
You will also have to tune your TV set accordingly, in order to receive the picture from the receiver.
Depending on the type of installation, the receiver should be connected and configured following next
examples.
Example 1 – Basic System
Example 2 – DISEqC switches
Example 3 – Combined with terrestrial
Example 4 – Motorized system

STEP 2: BASIC CONFIGURATION OF THE
RECEIVER
The receiver includes an installation assistant (Quick Setup)
that will help you to setup the different parameters.
When the receiver is turned on at first time (using the button at
the rear panel of the receiver), the next menu is shown on the
TV (Image 1):
The receiver is programmed with all the channels of Astra (at
position 1 of the DISEqC), Hotbird (at position 2 of the DISEqC),
Hispasat (at position 3 of the DISEqC) and Turksat (at position
4 of the DISEqC). If your installation is different to this case,
please follow installation steps to search the channels.
In order to move through the different options of this menu,
please use the keys [ ] of your remote control. If a “Short
circuit on the LNB” message is shown on the TV, please check
the connections before continuing the installation.
Language : press [ ] to select languages. The selection
of languages include: English, German, French, Spanish,
Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Russian, Danish, Greek,
Hungarian, Arabic, Farsi.
First Audio : Some channels offer more than one audio language.
This function allows you to set the preferred audio language for
those channels using [ ]. If a channel offers the same
audio language as the “First Audio” you set the system will play
this audio language as default. If the channel does not offer
this audio language then the system will compare the offered
languages with the second audio language. The selections of
audio languages include: English, German, French, Spanish,
Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Russian, Danish, Greek,
Hungarian, Arabic, Farsi.
Second Audio : If the channel has no audio language that
corresponds with “First Audio” but with “Second Audio” the
system will play the second audio language as default. If no
audio language corresponds with the “Second Audio” then the
default language of the current channel will be played instead.
The selections of audio languages include: English, German,
French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Russian,
Danish, Greek, Hungarian, Arabic, Farsi.
LNB Power : Here you can set the power output to the LNB. If
your receiver is connected to the LNB directly then you need to
set the LNB Power to “On”. If your receiver is connected to a
multi switch (SMATV signal distribution system) then it may be
that you don’t need to provide the power to the LNB. But since
this is depending on the kind of installed distribution system we
recommend you to contact your installer or to refer to the user

BASIC OPERATIONS
2. BASIC OPERATIONS
2.0. SWITCH ON STB
Switch the [Device’s Main Power] switch on.
When the STB is first used it will display the quick setup page
where the receiver can be configured quickly.
For further use the STB will play the same channel as last time
when it was switched off.
? FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
Q: The power of my STB is on and it is running in TV mode but
the TV screen shows nothing:
A: Make sure the TV set has been set to the correct video input
(not the TV channels). For example, if you have connected the
STB to the Video1 input of the TV set, then you need to select
the corresponding Input on the TV. Mostly it is done with the AV
button of the TVs remote control unit.
Q: My STB is running in TV mode but the TV screen shows
nothing except one ball and “No Signal”.
A: That means the channel you selected has no signal. This can
be caused by several reasons:
1. The channel you selected is not from the satellite to which
your dish is pointing. Select another channel.
2. The signal of current TV channel is too weak. You can
try to change to other channels with a stronger signal. If the
problems still exist, please consult your local dealer or installer
for technical service.
3. You selected the wrong LNB type in the installation menu or
your DiSEqC switch configuration is not correct.
2.1. STANDBY
1. Press [Power] button to switch from TV mode to Standby
mode.
2. In Standby mode press [Power] button again to switch back
to TV mode. The last active channel will be showed.
3. To switch off the STB complete press the main power button
(placed at the rear panel of the receiver).
2.2. TTX
1. Press [TXT] button in TV mode to open the teletext page
(OSD 1). This service is depending on the support of the
channel provider.
2. If the channel does not support teletext information, it will
show “No Teletext Data” on the screen.
2.3. MUTE
1. Press the [Mute] button to mute the sound. On the screen an
icon will be displayed to indicate the muted sound (OSD 2).
