Introduction
1.1 Introduction
The TF 5200 PVRc digital receiver is fully compliant with the
international Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard, and
can receive digital broadcastings.
Unlike analog broadcastings, digital broadcastings are not all
assigned to their own frequencies; 1instead, several television
and radio broadcastings are transmitted through a single trans-
ponder on a single wideband carrier.
NOTE A transponder is in fact a wireless device, which re-
ceives and transmits radio signals at a prescribed fre-
quency range. You may regard a transponder as a
channel. One channel has one broadcasting in ana-
log broadcast; on the other hand, one transponder has
several broadcastings in digital broadcast. So the word
service is used instead of channel to indicate a broad-
casting in this document.
To help you with the choice and setting for broadcasting ser-
vices, a selection of television and radio services have already
2 Introduction
been programmed for you. So all broadcasting services that
have gone on air are available to you. You can find the latest
transponder information from various broadcasters on tele-
text.
The TF 5200 PVRc digital receiver has features as follows:
•The digtial receiver is able to memorize up to 2000 tele-
vision and radio services.
•Electronic Program Guide (EPG) provides an overview
of program schedules for next few hours.
•You can edit the service list and make your own favorite
service list.
•You can view the information of a current television or
radio program.
•You can update the firmware of the digital receiver to
the latest, which will be provided by Topfield.
•The digital receiver features a digital video recorder with
two tuners, with which you can record your choice of
broadcasting services independently of ones you are cur-
rently watching.
•The large storage capacity of the built-in hard disk al-
lows you to record up to 40 hours of material—in case
of 80 gigabytes—in excellent picture and sound quality.
•Time shift function is a special technical feature. You
can pause the program you are watching and resume it
again at a later time. You can quickly find whatever part
of the current program by reverse or forward search.
•During a recording in progress, you can select a different
program from the archive and watch it.

1.2 Controlling the digital receiver
You can control the digital receiver with the remote control
and the front panel buttons.
NOTE When the digital receiver is off but plugged to a wall
outlet, we say that it is in standby mode; on the other
hand, when it is on, it is in operation mode. You should
keep the digital receiver plugged to a wall outlet so as
it can run timer events.
