Connecting up and putting into operation

Decoder connection

Decoders for reception of analogue Pay-TV programmes can be connected up only via an analogue secondary receiver (see connection diagram 3 in “Connection examples“ chapter.)

Set up the connection to the secondary receiver as described above.

Using a Scart cable, connect the decoder to the decoder Scart socket of the secondary receiver.

Take note of secondary receiver and decoder instructions.

Inserting batteries into remote control handset

Remove the cover on the rear of the remote control handset.

Insert both of the batteries supplied into the remote control handset.

Make certain that the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity! Polarity is marked at the bottom of the battery compartment.

Replace the cover again.

Exhausted batteries are special waste and should not be disposed of with household refuse. Instead, hand them in to a collection centre for used batteries!

Checking connections and operation

Switch the satellite receiver on via the mains switch on the front of the unit. The LED display on the unit shows the programme slot P001.

Switch on your TV set.

Tune in to an audio-visual (AV) programme slot on your TV set.

You can now receive the factory-preset TV and radio programmes. To find out how to tune in additional TV and radio programmes, refer to sections: “Programming TV programmes“ and “Programming radio station programmes“.

If the “No Signal“ display is shown for all programme slots, the installation of the system should be checked out. However, if only certain programme slots are affected, this may be due to an interruption in the signal on the transmission side.
