To achieve optimum signal quality, please read this chapter carefully before
setting up your receiver and select the most appropriate option depending on
the equipment you have.
Before connecting equipment to your satellite receiver please check the
instruction manual for each device.

the Helpline (details below).

There are three options for connecting your satellite receiver to your TV.
3.1 Connection to Dish and TV 1 via HDMI or YPbPr output and Audio output
(for high definition viewing). For best results always use HDMI connection if
available for HD and upscaled SD broadcasts, also for ordinary SD broadcasts
as these will be upscaled by your receiver.
Connect the HDMI lead supplied to
the HDMI socket on the back of your
receiver marked

and to any
socket marked

on the back
of your TV.
If you don’t have an HDMI socket on
your TV check for a group of 5 phono
sockets on the back of your TV marked

phono sockets marked
