OTA (Over the Air)
In order to maintain proper performance of the product, it is essential to have the most up-to-date
software. Visit the Humax website to check the latest news and newly released software versions.

OTA, an abbreviation of Over-the-Air, is a standard for the transmission of software through a broadcast
system. OTA is simply an alternative method for downloading software versions. However, the
manufacturers reserve the right for deciding the release of the software for their products by beaming
the latest software versions over the air via satellite. Note that OTA is only limited to certain geographical
regions mainly due to dierent antennas having dierent footprints (area where the signal can be
received). The software update via satellite will only occur under the following circumstances.
1. The equipment should have the appropriate loader software.
Caution:
Please note that if the normal loader software is not equipped, the product may not be
updated or operate properly after software update.
2. The manufacturer decides to release the software via a designated satellite.
3. The equipment must be tuned properly to the same antenna equivalent to that of the manufacturer.
4. Update software when the signal strength and quality is high. If the weather is not favorable, and the
signal strength and quality are not recommendable, perform the software update later.
Caution:
• Please be careful to keep the power on and the power cord plugged in during software update. If the
power is o during software update, fatal damage may be caused to the product.
• Please be careful not to pull out the signal line (LNB cable) during software update. Update may be
interrupted and the product may not operate.
Note:
