Connecting the receiver
The connections on the rear of the device are marked (see diagram on page 6).
Connecting a terrestrial antenna
Connect the antenna cable of the house or indoor antenna to the socket RF INPUT DIGITAL (4) of
the receiver.
This connection can supply an antenna with signal amplifi er with a current of 5 VDC (max. 50 mA).
CAUTION:
The antenna current may be switched on only if the antenna really is an active indoor antenna
with signal amplifi er and is not already supplied with current through its own power supply
(mains transformer or similar). (See also page 18). Otherwise this could cause a short circuit
or destroy your antenna.
The socket RF OUTPUT (5) of the receiver can be connected via an HF cable to the antenna socket
of your television (daisy chain function for analogue programmes).
Connecting a satellite antenna
Connect the coaxial cable of your satellite system with the socket IF-INPUT DIGITAL (6).
Caution: If, after connecting the receiver to the mains, the screen shows the message “Short
circuit or overload at antenna input”, there is a short circuit in the LNB cable or in the LNB. In
this case the receiver must be disconnected from the mains immediately, until the short circuit
has been remedied.
Connecting a television
Connect the socket TV (8) of the receiver via a scart cable with the corresponding scart socket of the
television.
Connecting a video recorder
Connect the socket VCR (11) of the receiver via a scart cable with the corresponding scart socket of
the video recorders.
If the video recorder is switched to playback function, the picture and sound signals of the video
recorders will be transmitted by the receiver to the television (daisy chain operation).
Connecting a hifi system
Connect the sockets AUDIO L/R (7) of the receiver via a cinch cable with the corresponding input
sockets of your hifi system.
Connecting a digital multi-channel amplifi er
The receiver has an optical (12) DIGITAL OUT socket for a DOLBY DIGITAL signal.
Connect the socket via a corresponding cable with your multi-channel amplifi er.
Connecting a mains cable
Connect the mains cable supplied to the socket 230V~/50Hz (10) of the receiver.
