Introduction

The TF 5100 PVR digital receiver is fully compliant with the international Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard, and can receive digital broadcasts. For its operation, you need an antenna, which must be installed appropriately.

NOTE

In general we equate a channel with a frequency. However, unlike analog broadcasts, digital broadcasts are not all as- signed to their own frequencies; instead, multiple television and radio broadcasts are transmitted through a single fre- quency. The frequency in digital broadcasting is usually called transponder. To reduce confusion, the word service is prefer- ably used than channel as service indicates one television or radio broadcast in this manual.

Can store up to 2000 television and radio services.
