Note: The tabel contains only approximate values of the SKEW angle.
Adjustments of less than 8 are usually not required as long as reception is undisturbed. The ne-tuning of the skew angle often allows the reception of satellites in
areas actually outside of their footprint. The footprints of the individual satellites
can be found at www.lyngsat.com or www.satcodx.com. Both websites provide
interesting information about the channels and footprints of the various satellites.

Extras
1. Signal-strength display
Within the sub-menu Extras in the main menu you can select the signal
strength display.
The signal strength is then indicated as a vertical bar. The C/N value will indicate
the same value in dB. The higher the number, the better the reception quality. In
satellite mode, and depending on the channel, a satisfactory TV picture should be
received with any value above approx. 8. In DVB-T (optional) mode, a C/N value
above approx. 15 will provide interference-free reception.
The three coloured elds next to the bar indicate the status of the receiver stages.
Only if all elds are green, will valid data be received with the signal and a picture
be shown on screen. Use P+/P- to change the selected program in the background.
Press INFO to display an enlarged version of the C/N-value window.
Pressing the INFO button on your remote control enlarges the display of the signal
strength.
Note:
Further to the setting of your reception system and your position within the
satellites footprint, the signal strength also depends on the currently selected
channel. Please take this into account when checking the aim of your antenna using
the signal strength display. It is normal that some channels are received with a
strong signal while others are rather weak.

CI Common Interface
At the front of the device there are two slots for modules to decode encrypted
programs.
To prevent damage only modules with the PC Card logo must be inserted. Any
other modules may damage the receiver beyond repair. Do not use excessive force
to insert the modules. Rather pull the module back out of the slot and try inserting
it again. Ensure that you insert the module with the correct side up and correctly
inserted into the slot.
Smartcards are sometimes printed in a confusing way as they are often designed to
be used with other decoders. Most common-interface modules allow cards with the
golden contacts facing upward. Before inserting a smartcard into the common-interface module, make sure that the usually gold-coloured contacts on the smartcard
are clean and free of dust.
If a decoder module has been correctly identied, its name is displayed in the main
menu under Encryption. When you select the entry for this module in the list and
press OK, a menu will be displayed based on the corresponding decoder module.
Please contact the module manufacturer in case of any questions concerning the
module. Note: Some modules only register completely and provide a menu system if
a valid smartcard is inserted.
The keys OK and EXIT are used to navigate within the manufacturer-specic menus.
If a menu does not respond to the OK or EXIT command, the dialog can be cancelled
by pressing MENU. The receiver then interrupts the connection to the modules
menu system.
Please note: Not all encryption systems are available to common-interface
modules yet. Please check with your pay-TV provider, if a matching module is
available. If there is no response on OK or EXIT, you can force to terminate
the dialogue, by the button MENU. The receiver stops the connection to the
module.

ASTRA 3:
Astra 3 transmits programme packages from the Netherlands, the Czech Republic
and Slovakia. Southern Europe is not covered by the footprint of the Astra 3 signals.
HOTBIRD (Eutelsat Hotbird):
Like Astra, Hotbird is not a single satellite, but a system comprising several satellites. It transmits more than 200 digital free-to-air programs in several languages.
Hotbird fully covers all of Europe, but at sometimes signicantly lower signal levels
than Astra. Hotbird is the easiest way to receive German stations in Greece and
Turkey.
THOR and SIRIUS:
The channels and the footprint of Thor and Sirius cover Northern Europe. Many, sometimes all, channels of Thor and Sirius may be received even in Southern Germany
if an adequately sized antenna is used. However, almost all channels are encrypted.
ATLANTIC BIRD 3:
Atlantic Bird 3 mainly covers France and Benelux, but can also be received all over
Europe if a suitable parabolic antenna is used. It transmits several digital free-to-air
French channels.
45
HISPASAT:
Hispasat covers mainly the Iberian Peninsula and the Canary Islands, but can also
be received in Italy, France, Benelux etc. in good quality. The range of programs is
focused on the Spanish region.
EUTELSAT W3A:
This satellite is undergoing some application changes, so no reliable data is available. Basically it covers the whole of Europe and the Middle East region. However, its
signals are signicantly weaker than those of the other satellites, and the use of an
85-cm antenna is hence recommended. This satellite is therefore unsuitable for the
Caro and Cosmo units.
EUTELSAT W2:
EUTELSAT W2 transmits several channels packages of some smaller European countries, providing a weak signal which requires at least a 65-cm parabolic antenna.
HELLAS SAT 2:
This satellite transmits some Greek channels and a wide variety of channels of Eastern European countries such as Bulgaria or Ukraine.
