6.8 Common Interface

1) CAM Initializing

To enjoy scrambled channels, you will need a Common Interface Conditional Access

Module (CAM) and a Smart Card from the service provider (program distributor). If you

are subscribing to services from more than one service provider, you will need a Smart

Card from each one, and may even need different CAMs (depending on the DVB

Common Interface standard each uses). Since a Smart Card is connected to a single

service provider, a limited range of channels will be available via it.

Note : Without the CAM and the smart card, you can watch only Free-to-Air programs.

⊹

Insert a CAM into a receiver’s slot designed for it, and a Smart Card into the CAM.

⊺

The message ‘CAM Initializing’ will appear on the screen. <Figure 6.8.1>

After the message ‘CAM Initializing’ has disappeared, you can select the channel that

you want to watch.
