via cable/antenna
DVB-T: digital, terrestrial stations
DVB-C: digital stations via cable
DVB-S (cable 1): digital stations via satellite
DVB-S (cable 2): digital stations via satellite
Antenna DVB-T If you are using an active antenna, then select
yes (5V) for the antenna power supply.
Items Explanation
Antenna
DVB-C
The conventional settings will be derived from
the selection of set location. Only change this
if you know other symbol rates and modulation
types or if you have to specify the network ID for
your cable network (information available from
your cable network provider). If you want to run
the station search independently of the channel
grid, select frequency search for the search
method.
Antenna
DVB-S
Select which satellite(s) you receive from a list.
For more than one satellite, select the type of
your changeover switch or communal satellite
system additionally. Ask your dealer in this
regard.
High band
Specify here whether the high band of the
selected satellite is to be searched in addition to
the low band.
LNB
frequencies
Low Band/High
Band
Normally, you do not need to change the values
for high and low band, unless the LNC (LNB) of
your satellite system uses a different oscillator
frequency (important for the frequency display).
After you have made these settings, you should
receive the picture and sound of the selected
satellites (only with Astra1 and HOTBIRD).
Symbol rates
The symbol rates are specified by the satellite
provider and do not normally need to be
changed.
Favoured signal
source
Select the signal source from a list, the station
of which is to be at the top of your station list
(starting with station slot 1).
• If you want to use the AV Link function with an
externally connected recorder, the analogue
stations have to be between station slot 1 and
99.
Start search
Start the automatic station search with OK. First
TV stations, then radio stations are searched
for. The stations found in the automatic search
are divided into the appropriate station blocks
depending on the previously selected antenna
cables (signal sources). Subsequently the
stations can only be re-sorted within these
blocks. At the beginning of the station list
you will find the block with the stations of the
preferred signal source.
Any mixed sorting of stations from different
signal sources is only possible with the
favourites list.
Connecting
additional
devices
In conclusion the connection wizard will start;
with their help you can register and set your
video devices or decoders, and connect them to
the TV set. DVD players and DVD recorders are
already registered at the factory.
You can start the connection wizard manually
later and add new devices. Further information
is available on page 15 (Connection wizard) and
page 22 (Speaker/amplifier connection).
Room antenna With good reception conditions a room antenna
can be used for DVB-T (socket ANT2).
Active antenna
Under less favorable reception conditions, it is
advisable to use an active antenna which has to
be set accordingly in the initial installation or in
the “TV Menu > Connections > Antenna DVB >
Antenna DVB-T”. (See “Antenna DVB-T” on this
page).
Unidirectional
antenna
If the location is outside of the normal
transmission range then a directional antenna
can be used to improve reception quality.
