FM antenna
Connect the antenna for receiving FM stations to the jack
5 “FM”. This may be a roof/outside antenna, but also a

nector cable for this.
If an antenna connection is not available at your setup
location, you can use the enclosed throw-out aerial
e.
Push the aerial plug into the jack 5 “FM” and adjust the
position of the throw-out aerial for best reception. Then
fix the aerial in place.
AM antenna
The enclosed antenna
d receives AM stations. You can
set up this antenna to be free standing or screw it onto a
(cabinet) wall.
Connect the connector cable of the antenna with the
jacks 6 “AM” on the back of the DecoderStation 7. Press
down the lever on each of the connector terminals and
insert the end of the cable in the opening above it. Re-
leasing the lever locks the cable in place.
Inputs for source devices
The DecoderStation 7 offers you three HDMI inputs for
digital audio/video signals (HDMI 1, 2 and 3), three
analogue audio inputs (AUX 1, 2 and 3), one optical and
two coaxial digital audio inputs.
HDMI 1, 2 and 3
You can connect a source device with a digital video and
audio signal to the jacks 18 (e.g. PC, Blu-ray player or
video game system). You will need a HDMI cable for this.
If a unit just emits video via HDMI, you can assign one of
the DecoderStation 7 audio inputs to the HDMI input this
device is connected to and get audio in that way.
