CONNECTION AND SET-UP

TV AND VIDEO RECORDER CONNECTION

Connect the satellite receiver (TV Scart socket) and the TV set using a Scart cable (see “Connection Example”). If your TV has a stereo capability, you can receive the sound in stereo via the Scart connection. Use a further Scart cable to connect the satellite receiver (VCR/Scart socket) to the video recorder/DVR.

For system reasons, the same video signals are to be found at the TV Scart socket as at the video cinch output.

If you are recording using an external video recorder, remember not to operate the receiver during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on your recording.

AUDIO CONNECTION

If you want to play the sound on your hi-fi system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets on the hi-fi system, using an appropriate cable (see “Connection Example”).

ELECTRICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT

The electric digital output is intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital system (see “Connection Example”).

INSERTING BATTERIES INTO THE REMOTE CONTROL

Remove the cover on the rear of the remote control.

Insert the two batteries supplied into the remote control. Ensure correct polarity of the batteries; the + and

–markings as indicated inside the battery compartment. Slide the cover back into the housing until it locks in place.

MOUNTING THE UFS 640SI WITH A MOUNTING SUPPORT

The supplied mounting support enables you to not only place the receiver onto a firm, even surface but to fix it onto or below this surface (under-shelf installation).

When selecting the place for installation, it is imperative that Section 1 “Safety Notes” be observed! Make sure that the connection sockets on the receiver rear are accessible and that there is enough room for the cables to be connected!
