Operating manual DVB Satellite Receiver UFS 651si/sw
PREFACE Dear customer, This operating manual is intended to help you make the fullest use of the extensive range of functions offered by your new satellite receiver. We have tried to make the operating instructions as easy as possible to understand, and to keep them as concise as possible. To help you understand particular specialist terms that cannot be translated, we have added a short glossary at the end of the manual. The power switch is an environmentally friendly feature.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION The channels available on the satellites and transponders are subject to continual change. If changes do occur, the new channels have to be set in the receiver because the factory preset programming corresponds to the status on the date of manufacture. The information for these settings can be found on the Internet or in relevant magazines. Your receiver is equipped in the factory with the latest software version at that time.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES This page contains important information about the operation, installation location and connection of the unit. Read these instructions carefully before setting up the unit. Mains cable Danger! If the mains voltage is too high, there is a risk of fire! Make sure that the mains cable (power supply cable) is not damaged. Units with a damaged mains cable must be disconnected from the mains (unplug it at the socket) and repaired by an electrical specialist before setup.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES Do not place any objects on top of the unit. Unless stated to the contrary in the “Connection and Set-Up” and “Installation” sections in the manual supplied, maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm above the unit, 2 cm to either side and 5 cm behind the unit, to allow unobstructed dissipation of the heat generated. There is a risk of fire! Installation location All electronic equipment generates heat. However, the heating of this unit lies within the permissible range.
RECEIVER FEATURES / SCOPE OF SUPPLY The UFS 651 is suitable for reception of digital satellite TV and radio programmes. The HDMI interface enables connection of a flat-screen TV for optimal viewing comfort. An integrated upscaler ensures optimal picture processing for flat-screen TVs. Due to its energy-efficient concept, the receiver is environmentally friendly both in standard operation mode and in stand-by mode.

Refer to the information in the “Safety instructions” section.
CONNECTION AND SET-UP TV AND VIDEO RECORDER CONNECTION Connect the satellite receiver (TV Scart socket) and the TV set using a Scart cable (see “Connection Example”). If your TV has a stereo capability, you can receive the sound in stereo via the Scart connection. Use a further Scart cable to connect the satellite receiver (VCR/Scart socket) to the video recorder/DVR. For system reasons, the same video signals are to be found at the TV Scart socket as at the video cinch output.

SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE CHANNEL PACKAGE The channel package for a digital transponder normally includes several TV and radio channels. Each channel package has a fixed assignment for the transponder transmission frequency, for polarisation (horizontal or vertical), for the symbol rate and for the Viterbi rate or error rate.
SHORT TECHNICAL GUIDE PID The PID (Packet IDentification) number is an identification number for video signals and audio signals in the digital data stream of DVB-MPEG -2 signals. The receiver uses the PID number to create a unique assignment for the video and audio data transmission. The PCR PID is the identification number for the synchronisation signal. The PID-PCR is normally identical to the video PID.
