Inserting the CA card into the CI module

Quick guide

Inserting the CA card into the CI module

In order to receive coded digital stations, a common interface module (CI module) and a CA card must be inserted in the CI slot of the TV.

1Carefully insert the CI module in the CI slot with the contact side forward.

2The logo on the CI module must be facing outward from the rear of the TV.

Checking CI module information

Go to “TV Menu” > “Setup” > “Option” > “CI setting” > “CI menu”.

NOTE

•It takes a few minutes to certify the licence key when you insert a CA card into the CI+ compatible CI module for the first time. This process may fail when there is no antenna input or you have never run “Auto installation”.

•The CI+ compatible CI module sometimes upgrades its firmware. You may not receive any TV images before upgrading. You can only use the power button during upgrading.

•Copy protected content may not be output or may be

output with a copy control signal. The protect icon* is displayed when P.INFO is pressed while watching copy protected contents.

•If the TV displays an update confirmation message for the CA card while receiving CI+ compatible broadcasts, follow the screen prompts.

•Make sure that the CI module is properly inserted.

•If the old CAM is used, authentication may fail. In such cases, contact the contracted service provider.

Recording CAM PIN setting

When a CAM PIN code is required for recording a programme, it is necessary to enter the CAM PIN code in advance.

1Go to “TV Menu” > “Setup” > “Option” > “CI setting” > “Recording CAM PIN setting”.

2Enter the CAM PIN code.

NOTE

•If a PIN code is not entered or is entered incorrectly, the programme will not be able to be recorded/played back.

CI plus 1.3 Standard

CI Plus is an advanced development of the DVB Common Interface Standard.

1Regarding security

There are some regulations in recording functions. The playback of encrypted programmes is strongly dependent on which CA module is used. The playback of encrypted recordings may sometimes not be possible, or only during limited time. Programme providers, who use the CI Plus standard, can assign different rights for their broadcast programmes.

Exercise caution when using USB-recording to record broadcast programmes (Pages 49–52).

2Operator service list management (Operator profile)

Under the 1.3 specification the CAM may provide the channel listing parameters (channel number, frequency etc.) and these can be updated while in use.

Refer to “Operator profile” on page 18.
