How to connect the satellite aerial

Connect the cable of your satellite aerial to the LNC input on the rear panel

of the receiver.

Connection via a EURO-AV cable

You get the best picture quality if you use EURO-AV cables (”Euroconnec-

tors”) for connecting your SAT receiver with a TV set, video recorder and

decoder as shown in the Figure. If this should not be possible, follow the

procedure specified in the paragraph ”Connection via the modulator out-

put”.

When playing back video recordings, the signals from the video recorder

are looped through the satellite receiver to the TV set.

If you wish to receive also terrestrial programmes, connect the terrestrial

aerial cable to the AERIAL socket on the rear of the receiver. The signal for

the video recorder and the TV set is available at the TV/VCR modulator out-

put of the receiver.
