Safety Information Sicherheitshinweise Important information on operation In the following section you will find important information on operation, the place of installation and connection of the receiver. Please read this information carefully before you start up your receiver. Longer periods of absence/thunderstorms Always switch off the receiver with the power switch at the front left in the event of longer periods of absence and during a thunderstorm.
Safety Information Important information on setting-up location and assembly Setting-up location All electronic devices generate heat. The rise in temperature, however, is within a safe range. Sensitive surfaces of furniture and veneers can over time discolour slightly due to the constant effects of heat. The feet of the receiver may also discolour when in contact with treated surfaces. If necessary, place the receiver on a suitable base.

Glossary of Technical Terms DiSEqC DiSEqC (Digital Satellite Equipment Control) is a communication system between the Sat receiver (master) and the peripheral Sat components (slaves), such as LNBs, multi-switch, motorized antenna systems. This is a single master/multi-slave system, i.e. there is always only one master in the Sat system. All activities emanate from the master.
Glossary of Technical Terms Symbol rate The symbol rate describes the amount of data transmitted per second. The symbol rate is measured in MSymbols/s and is equal to the number of symbols that are received per second. Transponder A transponder is a satellite transmitter which transmits TV and radio signals. A satellite has several transponders. Analogue transponders transmit only one TV channel and possibly several radio channels on their transmit frequencies.
