IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The channels available on the satellites and transponders are subject to continual change. If changes
do occur, the new channels have to be set in the receiver because the factory preset programming
corresponds to the status on the date of manufacture. The information for these settings can be found on
the Internet or in relevant magazines.
Your receiver is factory fitted with the latest software version. We are, however, constantly working on
adapting the software in response to the wishes of our customers and to developments in technology.
The “Software Update” section provides more information on this.
Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time!
If the product is not properly packed, the warranty claim is invalidated.
Make a note of the receiver‘s basic settings, so as to be able to restore them if necessary!

DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS
Electronic equipment is not domestic waste - in accordance with directive 2002/96/EC
OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL dated 27th January 2003 on used
electrical and electronic appliances, it must be disposed of properly.
At the end of its service life, take this unit for disposal to an appropriate official collection
point.
Used batteries are special waste!
Do not throw spent batteries into your domestic waste; take them to a collection point for
old batteries!
SWITCHING OFF THE RECEIVER AND UPDATING THE EPG
By pressing the ꢀbutton you can switch the receiver out of TV mode and into standby mode. Pressing any
of the numeric buttons returns it from standby mode into operating mode.
Every night at 03:00 the receiver automatically starts to update the EPG data. This updates the EPG data
for the first 25 channels of the overall channel list. This update happens however only if the receiver is in
standby mode. If the receiver is completely switched off (at the mains) or if it is in operation, the update will
be delayed. The receiver will update the EPG data when it is next switched from operating mode into standby
mode. After updating the data, the receiver automatically switches back to standby. You can however by
pressing the ꢀbutton break off the update before it is finished; the receiver then switches immediately into
standby mode.

CONNECTION AND SET-UP
The following section is intended specifically for specialist dealers. You only need to pay attention to this
section if you are carrying out the installation yourself.
The “Connection examples” section provides a sample configuration.
Do not connect the unit to the mains until all installation work has been properly carried out. Refer to the
information in the “Safety instructions” section.
CONNECTING THE UNIT (SAT-IF CONNECTIONS)
Connect the Sat IF inputs on the receiver to the satellite reception system. Use
a coaxial cable with a standard F connector.
If the F standard connectors are not yet fitted on the cable, strip the insulation from
the cable as shown in the following illustration and carefully twist the F standard
connectors on to the ends of the cables until they are securely seated.
When fitting the connector, make sure that no wires from the braid are touching
the inner conductor, so no short circuit can occur.
The quality of the reception signal depends on the connection!
RECEPTION REQUIREMENTS
Make sure that your own satellite antenna system is equipped at least with
a universal LNB for digital reception in the high-band range.
RECEPTION SYSTEM PRESETS
The presets for the control signals have been made for standard reception systems, i.e. 14/18 V for
polarity reversal and 22 kHz switching signal for low/high band changeover on multi-feed reception
systems.

CONNECTION AND SET-UP
TV AND VIDEO RECORDER CONNECTION
Connect the satellite receiver (TV Scart socket) to the TV set using a Scart cable (see “Connection
example”). If your TV has a stereo feature, you can receive the sound in stereo via the Scart connection.
Use a further Scart cable to connect the satellite receiver (VCR/Scart socket) to the video recorder/PVR.
For system reasons, the same video signals are to be found at the TV Scart socket as at the video cinch
output.
If you are recording using an external video recorder, remember not to operate the
receiver during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on your
recording.
AUDIO CONNECTION
If you want to play the sound on your hi-fi system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets
on the hi-fi system, using an appropriate cable (see “Connection Example”).
OPTICAL/ELECTRICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT
The fibre-optic output and the electrical digital output are intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital
system (see “Connection Example”).
INSERTING BATTERIES INTO THE REMOTE CONTROL
Remove the cover on the rear of the remote control.
Insert the two supplied batteries into the remote control. Ensure correct polarity of the batteries;
the + and – markings are indicated inside the battery compartment.
Slide the cover back into the housing until it locks in place.

COMMON INTERFACE
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always follow the operating instructions from your Pay-TV provider and the instructions
supplied with the Smartcard and the CA module!
Smartcards and CA modules are not included with this product!
The cards and modules are issued by the respective Pay TV providers, and contain the
subscriber data and details of the channels for which the subscriber has paid. These
channels are always encrypted.
Contact the Pay TV provider if you are interested in subscribing to a particular Pay TV
channel.
You are responsible for the use of the Smartcard in the CA!
The Smartcard sold by the Pay TV provider, specific to a particular encryption
technology, is inserted into the CA module.
Store your card and PIN code securely when not in use!
INSERTING THE SMARTCARD AND THE CA MODULE
ꢃ
ꢃ
The Common Interface (CI) ꢃ on the UFS 712 is suitable for the use of two CA (Conditional Access)
modules. These two CI slots are on the front right behind the display.
The CA module ꢂ receives Smartcard ꢁ (chip contacts pointing upwards and towards socket strip) and
is then inserted into one of the two CI slots ꢃ.
The Smartcard should be inserted into the CA module without exerting too much force. This also applies to
inserting the CA module into the CI slot.
Do not force the card in; and follow the instructions supplied with the Smartcard and the CA module.
To remove the module, press the relevant eject button
.

COMMON INTERFACE
You can find out which Conditional Access modules are in the CI slots on the UFS 712 and which Smartcard
is in which CA module from the “Main menu” under „Settings“, and the “Common Interface” menu.
Confirmation is by pressing the ꢓ button.
Use the ꢕꢖ buttons to select one of the two slots in which the CA module is located (“Module inserted”)
and then press the ꢓ button. You will then see the menu generated by the CA module.
The screenshots below depend on the specific module and card, and so are only intended as
examples:
From this menu, your card and your PIN code allow you to access various channels from your Pay-TV
provider.
“CryptoWorks” has been selected as an example here. The details can be different for each CA module.
Always follow the instructions supplied by your Pay-TV provider!
Note:
The module displays may be shown in English, even if you have selected German as
the menu language, because the menu is generated directly by the module!
Information for Conax, SECA, Viaccess and CryptoWorks users:
Note that with monthly activation intervals, the channel providers have different procedures
for activating Pay TV cards. Activation may therefore be a few days before or after the
beginning of a new month. During this activation period, the CA module and card must
be in the slot, and the receiver must be turned on a set to the booked Pay TV channel.
Follow the instructions from the Pay TV provider.
If your Pay TV card is then still not enabled, we recommend you briefly withdraw the CA
module with the card out of the slot, with the receiver switched on, and then re-insert it.
This information has nothing to do with the properties of the unit; it is merely intended to
assist you.

SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE
CHANNEL PACKAGE
The channel package for a digital transponder normally includes several TV and radio channels. Each
channel package has a fixed assignment for the transponder transmission frequency, for polarisation
(horizontal or vertical), for the symbol rate and for the Viterbi rate or error rate.
DISEQC™
DiSEqC™ (Digital Satellite Equipment Control) is a communication system between a satellite receiver
(master) and the peripheral satellite components (slaves), such as LNBs, multi-switches, rotating antenna
systems.
It is a single master/multi-slave system, i.e. there is only ever one master in the satellite system. All activities
start from the master.
DISEQC™ COMPONENTS
If DiSEqC™ switching matrices are cascaded, the master receiver must transmit the DiSEqC™ signal
several times, so that all DiSEqC™ multi-switches in the cascade receive their commands.
These days, DiSEqC™ components (slaves) must be reverse compatible, i.e. respond to the analogue
switching criteria from receivers that are only equipped with H/V and 22 kHz control signals.
A DiSEqC™ switching matrix will work with analogue switching criteria until the DiSEqC™ command
from the master is received. All analogue switching criteria are then ignored.
DVB MPEG-2
DVB is the abbreviation for Digital Video Broadcasting. DVB-S refers to the transmission method
(S = satellite). MPEG is the abbreviation for Moving Picture Experts Group, a working group that
formulates internationally applicable standards for the digital compression of video and audio. MPEG-2
has established itself as the standard for compression of digital TV signals. MPEG-2 works up to a data
rate of 100 Mbit/s.
EB/NO RATIO
The Eb/No ratio is a measure of the signal to noise ratio of a digital signal. The value is not identical to
the C/N value familiar from analogue reception technology. At Eb/No values below 5 dB no reception is
normally possible.
FEC
FEC is the abbreviation for Forward Error Correction. The FEC error rate corresponds to the Viterbi rate.

SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE
PID
The PID (Packet IDentification) number is an identification number for video signals and audio signals in
the digital data stream of DVB-MPEG-2 signals. The receiver uses the PID number to create a unique
assignment for the video and audio data transmission. The PCR PID is the identification number
for the synchronisation signal. The PCR PID is normally identical to the video PID. For programmes
broadcast in multiple languages, the audio PD can be entered manually to assign a different
language to the TV programme. After the PID is entered, the digital receiver automatically selects the
audio data identified by the PID number from the data stream and assigns it to the video signal.
SYMBOL RATE
The symbol rate describes the quantity of data that is transmitted per second. The symbol rate is
measured in MSymbols/s and is equal to the number of symbols received per second.
TRANSPONDER
A transponder is a satellite channel which transmits TV and radio signals. A satellite has several
transponders.
Analogue transponders transmit only one TV channel and possibly multiple radio channels on the
transmission frequency.
Digital transponders simultaneously transmit several TV and several radio programmes at
a
transmission frequency. If a channel provider is broadcasting several TV channels via a digital
transponder, we refer to this as the provider‘s channel package. The terms “digital transponder” and
“channel package” have the same meaning.
VIDEO-BIT-RATE
The video bit rate describes the quantity of data from the digitised video signal that is transmitted
per second.
VITERBI RATE
The Viterbi rate (code rate, error rate) characterises the error protection used by the programme provider.
The DVB standard provides the following values: 1/2 - 2/3 - 3/4 - 5/6 - 7/8

TROUBLESHOOTING
In the event of a malfunction, first check all the cable connections and operating states:
1. Receiver and TV set power plugs are connected to wall socket
2. Antenna cables on receiver input
3. Receiver and TV set correctly connected by a Scart or cinch cable
4. Audio connections are made to Hi-Fi or Dolby Digital system as appropriate
5. Receiver and TV set (Hi-Fi/Dolby Digital system) are switched on (check power indicators)
6. Receiver is responding to remote control
A selection of troubleshooting tips is offered below.
Problem

Remedy
Consult an antenna specialist
to have it checked and repaired
Antenna signal of satellite as necessary. On “Installation”
reception system missing or menu check LNB configuration
faulty. Incorrect LNB frequencies for the satellite in question:
set in “Antenna Configuration” High L.O. “10.600” GHz, Low L.O.
“Weak or no signal!” warning
appears on some or all channels
menu.
“9.750” GHz, and Limit frequency
L.O. “11.700 MHz”, and change
as necessary.
Set infrared code 1, as described
in operating manual under
