Connecting the Mediamaster & First-time installation

Some outdoor aerials are directed towards an analogue transmitter. The aerial must be directed towards a digital TV transmitter.

It is not always advisable to position the aerial as high as possible. If problems arise, experiment with different aerial heights.

2. Indoor and window-mounted aerials

This type of aerial may be enough if the reception conditions are very good. When an indoor aerial is used, please note the following:

Use an aerial for UHF/VHF channels (21-69), e.g. a directional aerial.

Place the aerial by the window and direct it towards the TV transmitter, if possible.

It is recommended that you use a Nokia active aerial with a built-in amplifier to provide a stronger signal.

The strength of the TV signal varies according to reflections from, for example, buildings. The signal penetrates thick stone or concrete walls poorly. A wooden building, however, is not an insurmountable barrier for digital TV signals.

The 5 V power for the active antenna

The Nokia active indoor antenna must be powered with 5 V from the TV aerial connector on the rear of the Mediamaster.

If your Mediamaster is connected to a local antenna system, e.g. in a rented flat, the 5 V power might disturb the antenna system in the building when it is switched ON. You can switch OFF the 5 V from the TV menu.

First-time installation general information

Once you have correctly connected the Mediamaster, you will also have to perform a "First-time installation." During this procedure, helpful information is displayed at the bottom of the menus.

The ok button always confirms a selection within these menus, and pressing it will take you to the next step in the installation process. However, sometimes more than one value has to be entered in a menu. Make all the necessary changes first.

Then, confirm them all simultaneously by pressing ok.

You can always go back to the previous menu by pressing back.

Use the cursor up/down buttons to move upwards and downwards from one line to another.

Use the cursor left/right buttons to change settings.

Use the number buttons on the remote control to enter numeric values.
