Attention
In order to make full use of the USB port, the storage device connected to it
must support USB 2.0. The required write speed of the USB device is 9.0 MB/s
or faster in order to achieve error-free, stable recording and playback.
Slower hard drives and flash drives may have issues with recording, resulting
in image stuttering, or will not work at all. Only drives with a single
partition and an NTFS or FAT32 file system will work correctly.
If the drive uses a different file system, format the drive on a PC to the
recommended file system before you connect it to the receiver. Heavily
fragmented or overfilled memory devices may also not work correctly or
smoothly. External HDDs must have their own power supply; the USB port built
into the receiver is not able to supply sufficient voltage to power a portable
USB HDD. Do not under any circumstances disconnect the USB device from the
receiver during recording or playback. Doing so may damage the receiver or the
flash drive and will also damage the data on the drive.
Installation and Assembly
Inserting Batteries into the Remote
Before turning the receiver on for the first time, place two AAA batteries into the remote in accordance with fig. 4.
Connecting the Receiver to the Signal Source
Connect the receiver to the signal source and other devices in accordance with fig. 5.
Putting the Receiver into Operation
When putting the receiver into operation for the first time or when resetting
the receiver to factory settings, an installation guide will appear on the
screen.
Based on your preferences, choose from the menu on fig. 6:
-
Region
-
OSD Menu Language
-
Display Mode (factory preset is 720 p/50 Hz)
-
Aspect Mode
-
Antenna power (switch on only if you are using an active antenna powered directly from the receiver).
Turning this feature on will reduce the sensitivity of the input tuner. It is therefore recommended to primarily use external power sources designed for powering antenna preamplifiers. -
Confirm your selection with the OK button on the remote, after which the receiver will begin automatically searching and saving all available channels.
