4.0Installation:
Introduction
This manual will help you learn the basic use of your recorder such as installation,
selecting channels and many other functions of the set top box.
4.1 Satellite Dish Installation
Please refer to the separate documentation “Satellite Dish Installation Guide” to install
your dish. You will need to assemble, erect and roughly align your dish to your chosen satellite
before connecting up and turning on your Recorder.
4.2 Recorder Installation
4.2.1ConnectingyourRecorder
Having completed the assembly and erection of your dish connect the satellite cables from your
dish to the LNB IN terminals on your recorder and your HDMI lead from the rear of your recorder
to an available socket on your TV or AV Amplier. If you are not using an HD compatible TV then
you will need to connect to your TV using a SCART lead and optionally the Optical Audio Out to
an AV Amplier. If you are using the HDMI socket then you only need to connect this as it feeds
both high quality audio and video to your TV. Finally, plug your Recorder mains plug into a wall
socket but do not switch it on yet.
4.2.2PreparingyourRemoteControl
Your Remote Control requires 2 x AAA (LR03) batteries to operate. Open the cover on the rear of
the Remote Control by sliding it downwards and insert two batteries taking care to observe the
polarity markings inside the compartment.
4.2.3TVFormatSet-Up
You are now ready to switch on and adjust your dish to complete alignment (for this refer to the
separate instructions). Turn on your TV and your Satellite Recorder (both at the wall socket and
on the rear of the unit). Proceed as follows:–
•Press the POWER button on your Remote Control or the STANDBY Button on the Front
Panel of the Recorder to turn the unit on.
•Select ‘English’ from the Language Choice Menu.
•Then select ‘O’ ENGLAND from the Country Choice Menu
•If you get a ‘Mode not supported’ message on your TV - You need to alter the Recorder
resolution to match the resolution of your TV – The factory default is 720p.The Resolution is
changed by pressing the ‘V Format’ button on your remote control. Adjust between 480,
576, 720 and 1080i TV Resolutions as required. 1080i is the highest available resolution for
HD channel reception.
•Make sure your TV source is set to receive the signal from your Recorder.
NOTE: If you are using this Recorder in conjunction with a pre-installed dish which is already
aligned to ASTRA/EURO1 then at this point you will see “NO CHANNEL” being displayed.
At this point press the “OK” button and your Channel list should be displayed showing all the
programmes that were loaded onto the recorder during manufacture. Your Recorder is now
ready to use.
