Satellite Receiver SSR 1080 B2

 the device should not be subject to excessive shocks or vibrations.

Note on Mains Separation

The power switch (16) located on the back panel of this device does not fully disconnect the device from the mains. Furthermore, the device consumes
electricity in the Standby mode. In order to completely disconnect the device from the mains, the power plug must be pulled out from the wall outlet.
The device should be positioned in such a way that ensures direct and unobstructed access to the wall outlet so that the power plug can be
immediately pulled out in an emergency situation. To avoid the risk of fire if the device is not going to be used for a long while (e.g. during holidays), it
should always be disconnected from the power socket. Before stormy weather when there is the danger of lightning, disconnect the device from the
power supply.

Batteries

Insert the batteries with the correct polarity. Do not try to recharge any non-rechargeable batteries and do not throw batteries into the fire. Do not mix
batteries (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.). Remove the batteries when the device is not to be used for a long time. Non-intended use may
cause explosion and danger to life. Respect the environment! Old batteries do not belong in with domestic waste! They must be handed in to a
collection point for waste batteries.

Cables

Unplug all cables by holding the plugs and never pull on the cables themselves. Never place the appliance, pieces of furniture or other heavy objects
on the cables and take care that these do not become trapped, especially at the plugs and sockets. Never tie knots in the cable and do not tie it
together with other cables. All cables should be positioned so that nobody can trip over them or be obstructed by them. A damaged power cord can
cause a fire or an electric shock. Inspect the power cord from time to time. Never use adapter plugs or extension cables that do not comply with the
current safety regulations in your country, and do not modify any of the power cords or electrical installations yourself!

Children and Persons with Disabilities

Electrical devices do not belong in the hands of children. People with disabilities should only use electrical devices in appropriate circumstances. Do
not allow children or persons with disabilities to use electrical devices when not under supervision. They may not comprehend the presence of potential
risks. Batteries and small parts represent potential choking hazards. Keep the batteries in a safe place. If a battery is swallowed, seek medical help
immediately. Keep the packaging away from children and persons with disabilities too as there is danger of suffocation.

Storing When Not Using the Product

If you do not plan to use the device for an extended period of time, unplug the power cord from the mains and remove the batteries from the remote
control. Also make sure that the storage temperature is maintained at between 5 °C and 40 °C. Humidity must not exceed 90% RH.

Connecting the Satellite Receiver

You should only connect your satellite receiver to the mains once all other cable have been connected.. This prevents accidental
damage to the satellite receiver or any external devices.

 Connect the LNB of the satellite antenna to the LNB IN (10) of your satellite receiver.*
 Connect the TV set (or beamer) to the HDMI connector (13) of your satellite receiver (see next chapter – HDMI Connection).
 If your TV set (or beamer) does not have an HDMI port, you can use the TV SCART (14) terminal to connect it to the satellite receiver.
 You can also connect your TV set (or beamer) to the VIDEO Composite Video output (11) of your satellite receiver.
 To obtain good sound quality, you can use the AUDIO L/R stereo outputs (12) of your satellite receiver to connect an external hi-fi amplifier.
 If your amplifier has an optical SPDIF input, you can use the S/PDIF OPTICAL (9) terminal to connect it to the satellite receiver.
 You can use the LNB OUT (8) output of your satellite receiver to connect another satellite receiver.
 Once you have connected all the cables, connect the power cable (15) to a wall outlet and turn the power switch (16) to position POWER.

*If you wish to use the device with satellite systems capable of receiving more than one satellite, you need to use DiSEqC® LNB instead of a universal
LNB.

Do not connect your satellite receiver via a VCR. Video signals passed through a VCR may influence the copy protection resulting
in a distorted picture.

HDMI Jack
Use an HDMI cable to connect your satellite receiver to the TV set. This connection type guarantees optimum and loss-free transmission of the video
and audio signals to the TV Set. As soon as a TV set is connected to the satellite receiver using an HDMI cable, your satellite receiver will automatically
toggle to HDMI signal output. Next, enable the corresponding HDMI input on your TV. See the User Manual for your TV set.

You can use the satellite receiver menus to optimise screen resolution for HDMI mode. You can choose from the following resolutions: 576P, 720P,
1080I or 1080P. For optimum resolution on a modern flat-screen display, we recommend using the 1080P or 720P setting. Please note that the picture
may disappear when you switch the resolution. If the screen remains blank, the resolution you have set is probably not supported by your TV. In this
case, use a SCART cable to connect your satellite receiver to the TV set in order to access the menus again.

Video and Audio Signal Connection:

All settings required can be found in the “User Setup | A/V Control” section (see page 127).

The following video signals are supported:

HDMI: HDMI output guarantees optimum video and audio quality. Note: This device has a standardised HDMI output. However, it is possible that
picture or sound distortion may occur if you connect devices with first-generation HDMI input interfaces.

In such cases, you can select one of the following connection options:

RGB: Very good picture and sound quality via a conventional (21-pin) SCART (Euro AV) cable.

Video: This output only provides video signals with embedded colour signals (CVBS).

Dolby Digital Sound (AC3)

Please note that Dolby Digital sound, if broadcast by the relevant channel, will only be available on the digital audio output and HDMI output modes if
they are connected to an external AV receiver.
