If this firmware has not been installed on your UFS 902/910, you can either update the firmware via satellite as described in your UFS 902/910 manual, or download it from the following Internet website: “http://www.kathrein.de“.

EXTERNAL USB STORAGE MEDIA

To record programmes with the UFS 902/910, an external USB storage medium is required (e.g. external hard disk drive with USB connection). The device can be connected on one of the two USB

2.0interfaces on the receiver rear panel (see image below). The USB interface on the receiver front panel has not been designed for connection of USB storage media, it is only intended for firmware uploads.

Please note that the USB 2.0 socket on the receiver only has an output current of 500 mA. For some hard disk drives, this current is insufficient for smooth operation. To guarantee optimal supply to the hard disk, you can either use a hard disk drive with a built-in power supply or you can insert a USB 2.0 hub with its own power supply unit.

After connecting the external storage medium to one of the two USB 2.0 interfaces, the symbol USB will appear on your receiver‘s display (only at UFS 910). Subsequently, the registration procedure will follow.

As soon as registration has been successfully concluded, the symbol HDD will also be displayed. The exter- nal storage medium can now be used to make recordings through the UFS 910.

Press the  button to check if the UFS 902 initialised successfully. If the screenshot “Recording Archive” appears, initialisation was successful.
