controlled fine-tuning and the digital receiver technology ensure the best
possible picture quality, providing you with immediate access via your
remote control to the full range of TV and radio programs broadcast by
the new digital satellites. You can even adjust the volume of your
television set with the satellite system's remote control. This eliminates
the inconvenient handling of two remote controls.
To further enhance the operating convenience, a new function has been
implemented in your satellite system to allow the system to be switched
off with the antenna remaining open. This eliminates the daily opening
and retracting of the antenna when staying in one location for
several
days without having to dispense with the extremely efficient power-
saving stand-by mode.
The first few pages of these instructions explain the general functions of
the receiver and are followed by an explanation of all the functions
specific to the satellite system and the search functions.
Your digital CI satellite system can receive unencrypted "Free-To-Air"
(FTA) programs, but also encrypted (encoded) programs. The integrated
"Common Interface" (CI) accepts decoder modules for the various
different encryption methods. It can hence receive encrypted (pay-TV)
channels, provided that you have procured the corresponding decoder
module and valid "conditional access" smart card. For further
information please refer to section "Common Interface" on page 23.
