Picture and sound

Digital TV is a transmission technology that replaces the traditional analogue technique. This means that several TV channels, radio channels and other digital services can be transmitted on the same space as just one channel took up before. As a consumer you get access to many more channels and services than before at the same time as they are received with perfect picture and audio quality

The digital-TV-receiver (Set-Top-Box) converts the digital signal into a format that is suitable for your TV and sound system.

Connecting your Set-Top-Box is just as simple as connecting for example a video recorder. You get the best picture quality by using a SCART-cable for connection to your TV-set. The best audio experience is obtained by connecting an optical cable to your sound system.

Scrambled transmissions

The content or some parts of the content transmitted in the terrestrial network may be scrambled. For this your Set-Top-Box is equipped with two slots for the possibility to connect two separate de-scrambling modules (Conditional Access Modules). Module, smart-card and subscription may be obtained from your local dealer or directly from the service provider.

Coverage

Before buying this product it is anticipated that you have made sure that there are digital transmissions covering your region.

Antenna / Signal source

Depending on the reception your Set-Top-Box may be connected to a simple indoor antenna or to an existing outdoor antenna system. If you live in a flat you should make sure that the digital terrestrial signals are distributed to your wall antenna outlet. If you have your own antenna system you must make sure that it is equipped with antennas, filter and/or amplifier that can handle those frequencies that the digital channels are transmitted on.

Cable-TV

Please observe that this Set-Top-Box is not designed for the reception of regular digital cable-TV signals (QAM-signal). Despite this, operators of smaller cable networks may have chosen to distribute the digital terrestrial signals (COFDM-signal) in the network. In this case this Set-Top-Box may well be used.

Check with your landlord if you are insecure about what type of TV-signal that is provided in the wall antenna outlet

Connecting more receivers to the same antenna

If you have another analogue or digital STB and you wish to use the same RF Signal. In this case you can connect it via the loop through. Connect one end of a RF cable to the TV/VCR on the STB and connect the other end to the RF (ANT) on your second STB.
