Important notes for siting and installation

Place of installation

Every electronic device generates some heat. The rise in temperature, however, lies within safe limits. Nevertheless, this does not rule out the possibility of slight colour changes to sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers over time due to the constant effect of heat..

In conjunction with treated furniture surfaces, the unit‘s rubber feet can likewise give rise to changes in colour. Where necessary, place the unit on a suitable pad.

Ventilation

The heat that is generated in this unit is dissipated quite adequately. Never install the receiver in a cabinet, shelf or rack with inadequate ventilation. Never close-off the openings on the unit that are intended for heat dissipation.

Do not place objects on top of the unit. Maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm above the unit so that the heat generated within the unit is convected away without obstruction.

Mains voltage

Run the receiver only from a mains voltage of 230V / 50Hz.

The unit is not to be connected to the mains until after all the installation work has been completed.

Humidity

Protect the unit against humidity, drips and splashes.

Solar radiation/heat

Do not place the receiver close to radiators nor expose it to direct sunlight.

Grounding

The parabolic antenna is to be grounded in accordance with regulations. Here, the relevant German VDE regulations (or equivalent) are to be observed.

LNB supply voltage

If the feeder system (LNB) is supplied with an external supply voltage and the LNB supply voltage is not used for polarity switchover (e.g. Kathrein single-cable feeder system UAS 330), the receiver‘s LNB supply must be set to “OFF“ (refer to section: “Initial settings, LNB supply voltage“).

There is a risk that the receiver may suffer damage if the change-over is not carried out.
