Dear customer,<br />
this operating <strong>manual</strong> is intended to help you make the fullest use of the extensive range of functions<br />
offered by your new satellite <strong>receiver</strong>.<br />
We have tried to make the operating instructions as easy as possible to understand, and to keep them<br />
as concise as possible. To help you understand particular specialist terms that cannot be translated,<br />
we have added a short glossary at the end of the <strong>manual</strong>.<br />
The on/off switch is an environmentally friendly feature. If you will not be using your <strong>receiver</strong> for an<br />
extended period, you should use the on/off switch to disconnect it from the power supply and save energy.<br />
For shorter breaks, you can use the remote control to switch the <strong>receiver</strong> to standby, which uses only a<br />
minimal amount of energy.<br />
We want you a good reception and hope you will enjoy using your new <strong>HDTV</strong> <strong>receiver</strong>.<br />
Your<br />
KATHREIN team<br />
The difference between PAL and <strong>HDTV</strong><br />
High-resolution TV is characterised by<br />
a signifi cantly higher number of picture<br />
lines on the TV set. The usual European<br />
standard PAL achieves a resolution<br />
of 576 lines vertically and 720 lines<br />
horizontally. The high-resolution TV<br />
provides an impressive resolution, up<br />
to fi ve times higher than the usual PAL<br />
standard TV, and hence delivering more<br />
detail sharpness and responsiveness.<br />

A <strong>HDTV</strong> picture can contain up to fi ve times as many picture points, that is, approximately 2 million pixels<br />
compared to a conventional PAL picture with only approximately 400,000 pixels.<br />
Worldwide there are currently two <strong>HDTV</strong> standards, based on the two formats 1080i and 720p. The<br />
two standards differ in the number of picture lines and in the transmission procedure. To the human<br />
eye, the difference between the two <strong>HDTV</strong> standards is hardly perceptible; whereas in comparison<br />
to the PAL system, moving pictures look much more dynamic in <strong>HDTV</strong>. Transmission technology and<br />
reception equipment will be able to handle both standards in the future.
