Connection via the modulator output
If your TV set or video recorder is not provided with a EURO-AV socket,
these sets are supplied via the TV/VCR socket with the SAT signals. In this
case, it will be necessary to adjust the sets to each other. At the factory, the
modulator of the satellite receiver has been preset to channel 43.
Set the test signal generator (TSG) switch located on the rear panel to its
”ON” position (slide it up).
Tune your television set (manually or with the help of the automatic channel
search) until the test grid appears on the screen.
Fine tune the TV set until the test grid is clearly displayed.
Allocate the channel on which the test grid is received to a free programme
position of the TV set.
If reception of a terrestrial broadcast channel should be disturbed, tune the
TV set to a free channel between 30 and 45. Then turn the channel adjust-
ment screw ”CH. ADJ.” on the rear panel of the satellite receiver until the
test grid is visible and optimize reception (clear picture) by fine-tuning the
TV set.
Swich off the test signal generator by sliding the TSG switch down.
If your video recorder has also no EURO-AV input, repeat this procedure
referring to the operating instructions of the video recorder.
How to connect your stereo system
You get the optimum sound quality if you play satellite programmes
through your hifi stereo system. For this, connect the AUDIO OUT L (left)
and R (right) sockets on the rear panel of the satellite receiver via a Cinch
cable with your hifi system.

Connections and Installation
Putting the receiver into operation
Your satellite receiver has 299 programme positions. The channels of many
satellites are already factory pre-programmed (see programme list).
For channel pre-programming, an LNB with an oscillator frequency of
9.75 GHz has been assumed. If the LNB of your satellite aerial operates with
a different frequency, you must adjust the frequency to your LNB in the on-
screen VIDEO menu (see ”Frequency” section in the ”Video Menu” chap-
ter).
If the receiver is connected to a collective aerial system, follow the proce-
dure described in the “LNB voltage” section in the “SYSTEM Menu” chapter.
When the receiver is connected via a EURO-AV cable, select the AV pro-
gramme position on the TV set. Press the “8 key on the remote control
unit of the satellite receiver to switch this on and select the programme
position of a satellite to which the aerial is directed (see programme list
enclosed).
When the receiver is connected via the modulator output, select the pro-
gramme position on the TV set which has been tuned to the test pattern
generated by the satellite receiver. Press the “8 key on the remote control
unit of the satellite receiver to switch this on and select the programme
position of a satellite to which the aerial is directed (see programme list
enclosed).
If a decoder is connected to the receiver, please check the “DECODER”
menu item in the SYSTEM menu and in the VIDEO menu.
Before making video recordings, you should familiarize yourself with the
TIMER menu. For reasons explained in the ”Timer menu” chapter, you
should always use the built-in timer for programming video recordings.
So that the TIMER menu can be called up, it is absolutely necessary to first
set the time (see the “Timer” section in the “System Menu” chapter).
