Glossary Glossary • Antenna A device that collects and radiates electromagnetic waves. Includes a satellite dish and abroadband antenna. • Forward Error Correction(FEC) A system of error control for data transmission. • Frequency The number of cycles or events per one second, which is expressed in the unit of Hertz(Hz). • Intermediate Frequency(IF) A frequency to which a carrier frequency is shifted as an intermediate step in transmission or reception.
Reference 1. Connect DiSEqC 1.0 All our receivers are designed to be DiSEqC 1.0 compatible. This allows multiple antennas to be connected to the STB simultaneously. If you have two or more fixed antennas or LNBs, you can use a DiSEqC 1.0 switch. 1. Connect the coaxial cable from the first LNB to the LNB 1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC switch. 2. Connect the coaxial cable from the second LNB to the LNB 2 or LNB B input connector of the DiSEqC switch. 3. Do the same for other LNBs. 4.
5. Connect a S/PDIF Fiber-Optic cable If you are watching a programme with a Dolby Digital soundtrack(see page E14) you can enjoy the higher quality sound of the Dolby Digital audio by connecting the STB to an external Dolby Digital television or amplifier. Do this by connecting the optical S/PDIF output of the STB to the optical S/PDIF input of the external Dolby Digital product (television, amplifier,.....). 6.
