4.5.1 General remarks

To receive scrambled channels you need a Common Interface Module (CI-Module) and a CA (Conditional Access) Smart Card supplied by your programme provider.

Please note that the CI-Modules and the assigned Smart Cards only decode the channels transmitted by your programme provider. If you have subscribed to channels of several programme providers, you may have to switch between several CI-Modules and/or the relevant Smart Cards.

•

Follow your programme provider’s instructions regarding the CI-Module and Smart Card.

Switch the unit to standby mode. Open the front flap and insert the CI-Module into one of the two module slots. If available, insert a second CI-Module into the other module slot.

Insert the Smart Card into the relevant CI-Module.

The modules and the Smart Card are correctly in position, if you can close the front flap easily.

Leave the CI-Modules in their relevant slots.

The Smart Card is protected by a four-digit PIN code (Personal Identification Number). Please observe your programme provider’s instructions relating to the card.

After activating the «CA» (Conditional Access) menu using the OK key, you can call up different information on your CI-Modules and Smart Cards.

The scope and content of this information is determined by the CI-Module or by the Smart Card and does not come from the receiver - please note your programme provider’s instructions and documentation.

4.5.2 Receiving scrambled channels

Depending on the satellite, up to several hundred scrambled channels can be received. You have two options to set up the channels of your own programme provider.

a)Via satellite search mode

• SEARCH: Launch automatic channel search (cf. 4.2.1) by selecting «CA» (=

search for scrambled channels) - you will thus receive all scrambled channels of the selected satellite in the «Favourite list» menu under «New CA» (cf. point 4.1.1 Favourite list).

•COPY: The list in the «Favourite list» menu (cf. 4.1.1) in the right-hand

window is arranged alphabetically. Select the channels of your programme provider using the V or W key and copy the selected channels into one (or also several) of your favourite lists using the OK key.

•MANAGING: If you now have a number of CA channels in the channel pool (cf.

4.1.3), which are not decoded by your CI-Module, you can also remove these unused CA channels from the channel pool.

Delete all ‘unused’ channels, i.e. all channels that you have not copied into one of the 10 favourite lists using the R key in the ‘Channel pool’ menu.

b)Via transponder search mode

•SETTING: Refer to your programme provider’s documentation for the reception parameters and enter these in the appropriate fields of the transpon- der search mode (cf. 4.2.2). After starting using the OK key, you will receive the relevant channels, which you can then save in the channel pool using the OK key.

If the channels are spread over several transponders, please repeat the process.

•COPY: Select the «Favourite list» menu again, followed by «New CA» and

copy the channels of your programme provider into your favourite lists. In this instance too there could also be unused CA (or FTA) channels; if so cf. above for instructions on managing them.
