4.5.CA (Conditional Access) = Encrypted programmes (CCR 512)

4.5.1 General information

To receive encrypted programmes, you need a Common Interface CA module (CAM) and a Smartcard from your service provider.

Note, that the CA modules with the respective Smartcards only decode programmes from your service provider. If you have subscribed to programmes from several service providers, you may have to alternatively change the different CA modules and/or Smartcards.

￿￿Follow the instructions from your service provider regarding CAM and Smartcard.

￿￿Switch the unit to standby. Open the front flap and insert the CAM into one of the two module positions . Insert a second CAM into the other module position, if available.

￿￿Insert the Smartcard into the respective CA module.

￿￿The module and Smartcard are correctly inserted, when you can easily shut the front flap.

￿￿Leave the CA modules in the provided plug-in positions.

Th Smartcard is accessed via a 4-digit PIN code (Personal Identification Number). Please observe the instructions from your service provider.

After activating the „CA“ menu by pressing the [OK] button, you can call up various information via your CA modules and Smartcards.

The amount and content of this information is determined by the CAM or Smartcard, and does not come from the receiver. Please refer to the instructions and documents from your service provider.

4.5.2 Receiving encrypted programmes

You can receive hundreds of encrypted programmes depending on the satellite. You have two possibilities to set the programmes from your service provider.

a)Via satellite search

￿￿SEARCH: Start the automatic search (refer to 4.2.1) by selecting „CA“ ( = Search for encrypted programmes). You then receive all encrypted programmes of the selected satellite in the „Favourite list“ menu under „New CA“ (refer to point 4.1.1 Favourite list).

￿￿COPY:The list in the „Favourite list“ menu (see 4.1.1) in the right window is in alphabetical order. Select the programme of your service provider with the [►] or [◄] button, and copy the desired programmes in one (or several) of your favourite lists!

￿￿CLEAR OUT:When you have a variety of CA programmes in the programme pool (see 4.1.3), which are not decoded by your CA module, you can remove this „CA trash“ from the programme pool.

Delete all ‚unused‘ programmes, all programmes which have not been copied into one of the 10 favourite lists, with the [R] button in the ‚Programme pool‘ menu.

b)Via transponder search

￿￿SET: Refer to the documents from your service provider for the receiving parameters, and enter these into the respective fields of the transponder search (see 4.2.2). After starting the search by pressing the [OK] button, you receive the appropriate programmes, which you can save in the programme pool by pressing the [OK] button.

In the case that the programmes are distributed on several transponders, repeat this process again.

￿￿COPY: Select the „Favourite list“ menu and „New CA” again, and copy the programmes of your service provider into your favourite lists.

Here you can also remove the “CA trash” (see above)!
