Connection and Start-Up

Attention:
Do not connect the unit to the electrical supply
until after all other installation work has been
carried out in accordance with regulations
Satellite signal connection
Connect the Sat-IF input of the receiver to the
satellite receiving installation.
If there is a short circuit in the LNB supply
voltage, the LNB supply voltage is turned off
and the notification message "OVERLOAD"
is displayed on the LCD display.
Use a coaxial cable with an F-standard attach-
ment plug for the connection.
If the F-plug is not yet mounted on the cable,
strip back the cable as shown in the sketch.
screw the F-plug carefully onto the cable
end until the plug is firmly seated on the ca-
ble.
Attention!
When fitting the plug, ensure that no strands of
wire from the braided shield are making contact
with the inner conductor thus giving rise to a
short circuit.
Audio connection
Your satellite receiver has two pairs of audio
Cinch sockets available for connection to hi-fi
stereo equipment.
Cinch socket pair (
AUDIO
):
The audio signal is adjustable at these sockets,
i.e. volume, balance and tone can be adjusted.
The sound muting (Mute) is also only effective
at these connections
Connect a hi-fi system or active speaker units
to these sockets
Cinch socket pair (
REC
)
To benefit from the high quality of the digital ra-
dio programs (DMX- and free radio programs),
for high-quality hi-fi systems, and especially
also for tape recordings. At this output you can
take advantage of the full frequency range that
is being transmitted (see technical data).
The sound muting, volume and tone controls
are not effective at this connection in order not
to disturb any recordings.
Digital audio recorder (DAT, DCC)
If a digital audio recorder is available, it can be
connected to the
SPDIF
-socket (Digital OUT
EL) for recording of the digital data stream of
ADR radio programs.
If there is an optical input available on the digi-
tal recorder, connect the UFD 231 to the optical
input.
External infrared receiver
If the receiver is to be operated from a location that
the remote control handset is unable to reach, (e.g.
with the connection of another stereo system in a
different room), an external infrared receiver can
be connected via the data copy connection IO
(Western modular 8-way). You can then also con-
trol the receiver from this room.
Now connect the receiver to the electricity supply.
Inserting batteries into the remote control.
Open the cover located on the rear of the re-
mote control handset
Insert both of the supplied batteries into the re-
mote control handset
Take care that the batteries are inserted with
the correct polarity!
Replace the cover to the battery compartment
(We recommend batteries of type : LR 3).
Note: Used batteries are a specialized waste
product! Do not therefore throw out used bat-
teries with household waste, instead hand
them over to a collection point for old batteries!
Now switch on the satellite receiver via the power
switch located on the front of the unit. The LED
display on the unit indicates the last program posi-
tion that was selected.
Check antenna signal level
With the key combination
MODE + 0
the signal
level (bar diagram) is faded-in to the LCD display
This allows the antenna to be checked for optimal
alignment.
