Connection and Initiation
Connection and Initiation
This paragraph is intended for the specialised dealer. You only need
to observe it if you install the receiver yourself.
Find an exemplar configuration in chapter 'connection example'.
Do not connect the receiver to the wall outlet before all installation-
work has been carried out. In this connection, please observe chapter
'safety instructions'.
Antenna Connection
DVB-T has been developed to allow for good TV reception
everywhere an adequate signal can be received. 'Ghosts' are a thing
of the past.
Connect the receiver either to your conventional house distribution or
community antenna net with which you receive all VHF/UHF signals,
or use one of Kathrein's special DVB-T indoor antennae for the
reception of the TV signals direct in your living quarters.
Even DVB-T cannot work wonders – a strong reception signal is
required. Consequently, problems may arise in concrete buildings if
you merely use an ordinary indoor antenna.
Presetting of the receiving Antenna
If you (have to) use an active antenna, i. e. an antenna with pre-
amplifier, you can energise this antenna via the antenna input of the
receiver. 'OFF' is preset to avoid any damage. The use of an antenna
suitable for 5 V supply voltage is imperative (see page 17).
TV/VCR/AUX Connection
Connect the receiver (TV Scart socket) to the TV set with a Scart
cable.
If you have a stereo-TV set, you can receive stereo sound via the
Scart connection.
Use a Scart cable to connect either a video recorder or a DVD
recorder to the VCR/AUX socket.
Audio Connection
Dolby Connection
For sound reproduction via the HiFi unit, connect the audio Cinch
sockets to the input sockets of the HiFi unit with an appropriate cable.
The electrical Dolby-Digital data stream output (AC 3) is solely
provided for connecting a Dolby-Digital unit.
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
Remove the lid of the battery case on the back side of the remote
control.
Put the batteries enclosed in the remote control. Mind their correct
polarity. It is indicated in the battery case.
Insert the lid in the sliding ledge and slide it on until it snaps in.
Used batteries are hazardous waste!
Never throw out used batteries, as hazardous substances do not
belong in domestic waste!
Turn the batteries in a collecting point for used batteries!
Electronic equipment is not household waste - in accordance with
directive 2002/96/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE
COUNCIL of 27th January 2003 on used electrical and electronic
equipment, it must be disposed of properly.
At the end of its service life, take this unit for disposal at a relevant
of. cial collection point.

Software and Channel List Update
Use the bright selection cursor and or to determine
which position you want to deactivate (No). The positions which are al-
ready inactive cannot be changed. If you merely want to actualise the
software but want to leave the channel list, deactivate the field 'chan-
nel list' and the other way round.
To carry out an update, scroll the selection cursor to 'Start' and con-
firm with . Then the receiver starts the update, and, if necessary,
displays the following information on the sreen:
*** Information UFD 574 01.08.2004 ***
Dear customer,
your receiver is updated.
A software download is not necessary
After the update, the receiver is re-initialised and operational again. In
case of an error or a missing signal, 'download failed' is displayed.
Not on any account switch off the receiver during the update as
otherwise you will delete the entire software. In this case, the software
would have to be re-installed either in a workshop or via PC and null
modem cable. During the download 'please wait' is blinking.
After the request
'show information'
you should go by the screen insert which is then displayed,
Observe all screen inserts!
After a software update, you have set the time again!
You can also call up the software updates on the internet under:
You can also find information on this procedure there.

DVB MPEG-2
DVB is short for Digital Video Broadcasting. DVB-T points to the
transmission method (T = terrestrial). MPEG is short for Moving
Picture Experts Group, a task force drawing up internationally valid
standards for the digital audio and video compression. MPEG-2 was
made the standard in the compression of digital TV signals. MPEG-2
functions in a data rate of up to 100 MBit/s.
Eb/No ratio
The Eb/No ratio is a measure for the signal-to-noise ratio of the digital
signal. This value is not identical to the C/N value know of the
analogue reception technology. In the case of Eb/No values below 5
dB
reception is normally no longer possible.
FEC
PID
FEC is short for Forward Error Correction. The error rate FEC
corresponds to the Viterbi rate.
The PID number (Packet Identification) is an identification number for
video and audio signals in the digital data stream of the DVB-MPEG-2
signals. With the PID number, the receiver can establish a clear
allocation of the video and audio data transmission. The PID-PCR is
the identification number for the synchronisation signal. The PID-PCR
normally is identical to PID-Video. In multilingual programmes, another
language could be assigned to the TV programme via manual audio
PID input. After the PID input, the receiver automatically selects the
audio data identified by the PID from the data stream and assigns
them to the video signal.
Channel Package
Symbol Rate
For the most part, the channel package contains several TV and radio
channels. Each channel package is fixedly assigned to the transmit
frequency, the polarisation (horizontal or vertical), the symbol rate and
the Viterbi rate or error rate.
The symbol rate describes the amount of data transmitted per second.
The symbol rate is measured in MSymbole/s and equal to the amount
of symbols coming in per second.
Video Bit Rate
Viterbi Rate
The video bit rate describes the amount of data of the digitalised
video signal transmitted per second.
The Viterbi rate (Code rate, error rate) characterises the type of error
protection utilised by the programme provider. The DVB standard
determines the following values: 1/2 - 2/3 - 3/4 - 5/6 - 7/8
