OUTLINE SPECIFICATION
PIN DESIGNATIONS FOR SCART CONNECTORS
REMEMBER - SAFETY FIRST
This satellite receiver has been designed and built in the UK to provide years of
trouble-free service. The receiver has been manufactured to meet international
safety standards but, as with any electrical equipment, you must take care if you
want to obtain the best results and operate your receiver safely.
We recommend that your satellite system be installed by a qualified satellite TV
installation engineer; this manual does, however, contain instructions on how to
install your receiver in case you wish to do this yourself'
To obtain the best results from your receiver, it is Important that you read this
manual completely, especially the safety instructions below.
SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT
. Ensure that all electrical connections are properly made ih accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions (see below - Connection to the Mains Supply).
TO AVOID THE RISK OF A FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK: .,ii

. DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER OF THE UNIT WITHOUT FIRST


DISCONNECTING THE RECEIVER FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
. NEVER ALLOW ANYONE, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN, TO PUSH
\'
ANYTHING INTO HOLES, SLOTS OR ANY OTHER OPENING IN THE
CASE. v
. Do not obstruct the receiver's ventilation slots; never stand the receiver on soft
furnishings or carpets.
. Do not use or store the receiver in excessively hot, cold, damp or dusty
conditions.
. Always put the receiver into standby mode when it is not in use.
. lf you have any doubts about the installation, operation or safety of the
receiver, please consult your dealer.

CONNECTION TO THE MAINS SUPPLY


This apparatus operates within the range of 220-240 V AC, 50 Hz mains supplies.
DO NOT CONNECT lT TO DC MAINS. The lead is supplied terminated at one
end with a connector to be inserted into the mains input socket on the rear panel
of the apparatus. DO NOT POWER UP THE RECEIVER UNTIL YOU HAVE
CONNECTED ALL THE APPROPRIATE CABLES.

MATNS LEAD PLUG CONNECTIONS (UK AND EIRE)


The mains lead supplied may or may not have a non-revlrireable (moulded) plug.
please see the section marked with an asterisk (.) if the supplied mains lead does
not have a non-rewireable plug fitted.
Non-Rewireable Plugs
Mains leads fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporate a fuse. the
value of which is indrcated on the prn face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be
replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse must be used of the same
rating, marked as shown right.
lf the fuse cover is detachable always reflt the cover after replacing the fuse.
NEVER use the plug with the fuse cover omitted'
lf the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets it should be cut off, after
having first removed the fuse, and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. lf this
new plug contains a fuse, its value should be the same as that removed from the
non-rewireable Plug.
The severed plug must be destroyed immediately to avoid the possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13 A socket elsewhere.
-IF YOU NEED TO FIT A MAINS PLUG THEN FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:

Rewireable Plugs
lmportant: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
tsLUE - Neutral (N) BROWN - Live (L)
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the tenninal marked with the letter
N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
On no account connect either of these wires to the terminal marked E or col-
oured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over
the sheath of the lead, not simply over the two wires.
A fused plug must be fitted with a 3 A fuse complying with BS 1362. lf you are
using a non-fused plug, an external fuse must not exceed 5 A.

MAINS LEAD PLUG CONNECTIONS (CONTINENTAL EUROPE)


The mains lead is supplied already fitted with a 2-pin moulded plug. This mains
lead must not be used in the UK.
IF IN DOUBT, CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

INTRODUCTION TO SA'TELLITE TELEVISION


Your satellite system consists of several component parts, some of which are
optional. As a minimum it will comprise the following items:
' A dish aerial. This is outside your house and it contains the LNB (low noise
block converter) The LNB converts the satellite signal from its incoming fre-
quency of around 1 1 GHz to a signal at about 1 GHz. This lower frequency
srgnal t|ren passes through a cable to your satellite receiver indoors.
' The satellite receiver. This receives the satellite transmissions and allows
you to set up and select the satellite programmes you wish to watch. Several
pleces of equipment can be connected to your receiver, but only your televi-
ston rs essential. The front panel of your receiver contains push-buttons
(under the pull-down cover) which allow you to bring your receiver out of
standby mode and to select the programmes, but the handset allows you
much greater control.
' The television. So that you can view the transmissions, one of the TV chan-
nels needs to be allocated to satellite reception.
' The handset. This allows you to operate your satellite receiver and set up all
the required parameters. Some of these operations are carried out using a
system of menus (lists) which are displayed on your TV screen.
You can enhance your satellite system by connecting additional componenrs
SUUr I d5.

' A second dish aerial. lf your satellite receiver is a Cual input model, you can
connect a second antenna which is probably pointing towards a different
satellite. lf you live in a block of flats it may have a communal antenna which,
depending on the model of your receiver, can be the LNB 1 input. lt is also
possible to have two LNBs on one dish.
' A video recorder (VCR). This allows you to record satellite transmissions.
You may also wish to use the receiver's Timer Menu in conjunction with your
VCR to record programmes while you are out.
' Stereo equipment. Your satellite receiver is fitted with the PANDA 1rM noise
reduction system to enhance its audio performance. PANDA 1 is a trademark
of Wegener Communications lnc. To get the maximum performance from your
receiver. you can connect it to a stereo TV or a stereo amolifier.
' A decoder. You can connect an external decoder to the receiver via a rear
panel SCART socket. With a decoder you are able to receive satellite trans-
missions which have been scrambled, providing you have paid a subscription.
' A different polariser. Each satellite programme is transmitted in one of 4
different polarisations (polarities): left hand circular or right hand circular for
direct broadcast satellites, vertical (V) or horizontal (H) for others such as
Astra. The LNB in your dish aerial will probably swap between the options
using a method known as voltage switching. lt is also possible to change
polarity using an electromagnetic or mechanical polariser, which can bring
some advantages. Depending on the model of your receiver, you can use this
different kind of polariser via a connector on the rear panel of the unit.
' A dish positioner. You may have a dish aerial which is capable of being
moved around to receive transmissions from different satellites. A Pace ciish
positioner can be connected to your receiver vja the DECODER SCART con-
nector. You can still also connect an external decooer.

USING THIS MANUAL
Quick Start Instructions
These are given overleaf. You will find them very useful when you first
switch on your receiver and tune it in to your TV.
Product Variations
On the opposite page are drawings of the front and rear panels of the PSR800
Plus and PSR900 Plus receivers. The PSR800 Plus has a single LNB input; the
PSR900 Plus has a dual LNB input (for attaching two LNBs). There are also ver-
sioi-ts with a connector for an electromagnetic or mechanical polariser. Where
there are differences between the 800 and 900 products, these are made clear in
the text.

Installation
We recommend that a qualified satellite TV installation engineer carries out the
tnsiallation of your satellite system. For this reason, we describe the installation
procedures on page 29 towards the end of this manual. You are not likely to need
to use the Install Menu unless you install the system yourself , add to it or change
the way it is connected.

On-screen Menus
You can operate this receiver very easily using a simple menu structure which
yoLl access by pressing the MENU key on the handset. Brief instructions are
given on the screen. The whole structure and each menu are described in detail
in this manual.

Prog ram mes


lf you have a PSR900 Plus receiver, you can set up 250 "programmes", each
programme containing information about a particular satellite channel, such as its
name. f requency etc. The PSR800 Plus has 199 programmes. When it is new,
your receiver has many programme numbers already programmed with satellite
channels. See the list supplied separately You may like to attach this list to one
of the blank pages at the end of this manual. Using the Programme Edit and
Prograrnme Setup Menus you can alter the programrnes and set up new pro-
grammes for additional satellite transmissions that you tune in to.

Handset
Before you start to alter the programmes or set up new ones, we recommend that
you learn how to select the existing programmes and familiarise yourself with the
handset keys, so this information forms the first part of this manual. Several very
useful functions are carried out using the function (F) key cn the handset, as
described in a separate section starting on page 10.
Advanced Features
These satellite receivers contain some advanced features which will only need to
be used in certain, specific circumstances. These are therefore described in a
separate section on page 28 of this manual. For certain functions, such as locking
programmes and menus, you need to use a personal identification number (PlN).
This section contains the factory setting of this PIN and details on how to reset it
to this value if you have forgotten your PlN.

FRONT PANEL OPERATION


The recetver rs designed to be operated with your handset. Without it, you cannot
display the menus or seiect options on them. You can, however, put the recetver
in and out of standby mode by pressing the O button. You can also orowse
ihrough the programmes, one at a time. by pressing the A button (which incre-
ments ihe programme number by one) or the V button (which decrements the
number).
QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS
You can operate this receiver very easily using a simple menu structure which
you access by pressing the MENU key on the handset. However, it is worth read-
ing the following instructions when you are using the receiver for the first time.

SWITCHING ON AND OFF


Generally. the receiver is in standby mode when you first power it on. Standby
mode is shown by a dash on the receiver's front panel display.
To bring it out of standby mode, press the O key; alternatively, select a pro-
gramme using the number (0 to 9) keys (see opposite - Selecting Programmes).
To put the receiver back into standby mode, press the q! key.

UHF TUNING
After the equipment has been installed, you will need to tune in your receiver to a
particular TV channel if it is connected to the TV using coaxial cable. lf it is UHF TUNING MENU
connected using the SCART connector this will not be necessary.

number, preceded by the letter C, on the front panel of the receiver.
The receiver is shipped with the channel number set to 38, therefore channel 38
is an appropriate TV channel to choose. Channel 38 may, however, already be
assigned to something else (e.9. your VCR), in which case you must set your TV
to a different channel number and adjust your receiver accordingly. The TV chan-
nel that you choose must be clear of any other broadcasting.
You can switch on a channel scan at the menu;this will save you having to set up
the TV channel number. You simply press the numeric key on your TV handset
which you wish to assign to satellite programmes and then use the channel scan
feature on the satellite receiver to tune into the channel represented by that TV
handset key.
You can also fine tune at the menu, but as this feature is not often required, it is
described in the Advanced Features section on oaoe 28.

keys. In some
menus you need to use the F key to start actions. This will

Setting the Frequency
Set the required frequency value either by using the { and } keys to go through
the frequency values one at a time, or by directly entering the value using the
numeric keys.
NOTE: You cannot enter the CBAND frequency value directly; you must use the

NOTE: lf the frequency value shown in this menu does not seem to correspond
with the frequency value given in a satellite TV magazine for the satellite
transmission you are viewing, then the LNB option in the LNB lnstall Menu is
probably set to the incorrect value (see page 24 - the LNB lnstall Menu).
NOTE: lf you have entered the correct frequency but see a plain coloured screen
rather than a picture, the signal may be too weak to disabte this plain screen
(perhaps because your dish is out of alignment). To help you to tune in to this
weak signal, you can disable the plain screen by pressing the F key then the
STORE key, but you must leave the menu structure to do this, then re-enter the
Tuning Menu.

Scanning the Frequencies to Find New Programmes


lf you want to set up a new programme, but do not know its frequency, you first
need to locate the required satellite channel, and to do this you turn on the
frequrency scan.
Select option 1 then press the F key followed by the ( or ) key.
The frequency value will keep changing and then stop when the next satellite
transmission frequency is reached. The background to the menu will be a solid
colour until the transmission frequency is reached. then a programme appears as
the menu's background.
lf this is a transmission frequency you wish to allocate to a programme number,
exit the scan by pressing the F key.
This frequency may, however, be one which is already allocated to an existing
programme number, or it may be a transmission that you are not interested in, so
you can continue the scan by pressing the { or } key.

Scanning the Frequencies to Position a Dish Aerial


You can use a speeded up version of the frequency scan to assist you while you
adjust the position of your dish aerial in order to find the transmissions from a
particular satellite.
Select frequency scan mode by pressing the F key followed by the { or } key at
option 1, then press the AUX/0 key.
The receiver will scan quickly through the whole frequency range and there will
always be a picture (although this will sometimes be noisy and distorted) as the
menu's background, rather than a plain coloured background.
This feature is very useful when you first align your dish aerial and the signal is
too weak to disable the plain background in normal scan mode. When you have
aligned the dish sufficiently to obtain a stronger signal, press the AUX/O key again
to return to normal scan mode.
Setting the Polarity
The range of polarity values depends on what sort of polariser you have. lf you
have a receiver with a rear panel connector for an electromagnetic or mechanical
polariser, you have the possibility of setting polarotor (polariser) options in the
LNB Install Menu (see page 26 - Using an Electromagnetic or Mechanical Polar-
rser).
Transmissions from a satellite are either Horizontally polarised (H) or Vertically
polarised (V). You can specify at the Tuning Menu whether a particular pro-
gramme is for H or V transmissions.
For the voltage-switching polariser used in this receiver. there are two possible
polarity values: H (for Horizontally polarised) and V (for Vertically polarised).
Use the { or } key to set the required polarity' Alternatively. use the F key
followed by the H/V key to "toggle" the polarity - if the polarity is currently H. it will
be changed to V. and vice versa.

Setting the Satellite


lf you do not have a dish positioner, it does not matter what value you set at this
option.
lf you do have a Pace dish positioner, you can set it up to pornt the aerial at
difierent satellites. The SATELLITE option in the Tuning Menur allows you to
specify these aerial positions on a per-programme basis, so tlrat when the re-
ceiver and positioner are connected together via a SCART lead, the aerial can
move when programmes are selected at the receiver.
The SATELLITE option can have any value between 1 and 128. but the relevant
values depend on the settings on your dish positioner.
Find out which satellite transmits the programme, check on your dish positioner
which position this satellite has, then set this value at option 3 using the
{ and } keys. You cannot directly enter the number using the numeric keys.

Setting the l.F. Bandwidth


For this receiver, the l.F. Bandwidth can be set to NORMAL (27MHz) or
NARROW (18 MHz) on a per-programme basis. Setting this to I.IARROW may
reduce "sparklies" (speckles on the picture). Use the { or } key to set the
reouired value.

Setting the LNB


lf you have a dual input receiver and two LNBs, this option allows you to specify
which LNB receives the programme and can have value 1 or 2.
Use the { or } key to set the required LNB.

Polarisation offset occurs when the polarisation of the signals from the satel-
lite does not line up exactly with the polarisation of your dish antenna.
' The amount of skew needed is not only different for horizontal and vertical
polarities, but also varies with the frequency of the incoming signal. For this
reason, the polarity base value is set at the LNB Install Menu (where it can be
set separately for H and V polarities), but the fine tuning skew from this base
value is set on a per-programme basis at the Tuning Menu.

INSTALLATION
lmportant:
' Do not turn on the power to your receiver, TV, VCR etc. until you have made the necessary cable
interconnections.
' lf you want to connect a SMATV communal aerial, connect it to the LNB 1 connector of a dual input receiver; you
should not connect it to a single input receiver, as on this type of receiver you cannot turn off the LNB 1 power.
' These instructions and diagrams show the UHF (TV) aerial connected to the receiver (i.e. looped-through the
receiver). lf you install it in this way, you should put the receiver into standby, rather than power it off, when it is not in
use, otherwise you will not be able to view terrestrial rV programmes.
' You can connect your UHF aerial directly to the TV or VCR if you connect your TV to your receiver using a full
SCART lead.
' When you have carried out one of the installation schemes described below, refer to the Install Menu section on page
24 of this manuai, specifically the UHF Tuning Menu and the LNB Install Menu. The Tuning Menu in the programme
Setup Menu contains a frequency scan option which can be used to help in the positioning of the dish aerial.
' lf the receiver is connected to the TV/VCR using coaxial cable, stereo sound will not be available from your TV.
' lf there is a short-circuit in the cable which connects the LNB to your receiver, the receiver will not work and mav
generate clicking noises.

Connecting to a TV Using Coaxial Cable


Connect the cable(s) from the dish aerial(s) to the LNB socket(s) on the rear panel of the receiver.
connect the UHF (TV) aerial to the AERTAL socket on the receiver.
Connect a coaxial cable from the TV/VCR socket on the receiver to the aerial socket on your TV.

Connecting to a TV and VCR Using SCART Leads
The use of SCART leads is the recommended method for connecting up your satellite receiver to external
equipment. Please ensure that you use full SCART leads for this purpose.
Connect the cable(s) from the dish aerial(s) to the LNB socket(s) on the rear panel of the receiver.
Connect the UHF (TV) aerial either by looping it through the receiver and VCR (as shown on the previous page) or by
connecting it to the TV or VCR directly (as shown below).
Connect a SCART lead from the TV SCART connector on your receiver to the SCART connector on your TV.
Connect a SCART lead from the VCR SCART connector on your receiver to the SCART connector on your VCR.
NOTE: lf you have connected your TV using a SCART lead, then you can use the TV/SAT key on your handset to switch
between terrestrial and satellite reception, providing your TV recognises pin 8 of the SCART socket.
NOTE: lf you have connected your VCR using a SCART lead, to record from the receiver you will need to select AUX or
AV on the VCR as the programme to record. When replaying the VCR through the receiver, yoLt will need to switch the
receiver to standby mode or select TV using the TV/SAT key; this method of replaying is, however, only possible if the
TV is also connected using a SCART lead.
NOTE: When you are using the timer function (see the Timer Menu section on page 16) pin B of the receiver's TV
SCART connector will not force the TV into AUX mode. Therefore to watch the programme while you are recording it you
either need to use the coaxial cable method of TV connection, or use a SCART connecticn and manually select AUX on
the TV.

Connecting an External Decoder


The PSR800 Plus and PSR900 Plus models have an integral decoder for viewing VideoCrypt transmissions, but you can
also connect an external decoder to view transmissions which have been scrambled using a different system.
Connect the decoder to the receiver's DECODER SCART connector.
Refer to the External Decoder Menu under the Programme Setup Menu to set the baseband and the audio and video
source for each programme you receive via the external decoder. lf the decoder does not recognise pin 8 of the
DECODER SCART, then you need to set up the audio and video source to be external.

Connecting an External Receiver


Instead of an external decoder, you can connect an external receiver to your receiver's DECODER SCART socket. For
example, you might want to connect a MAC receiver so that you can view MAC programmes (as the PSR800 Plus and
PSR900 Plus are PAL receivers). You then press the AUX/0 key to provide an auxiliary programme via rvhich you can
view the programmes you set up at the external receiver. Pressing the AUX/0 key causes the external audio and video
signals from this external receiver to be routed through to your TV.
Connecting a Pace Dish Positioner
Connect the dish positioner to your receiver's DECODER SCART socket and refer to the Tuning Menu on page 19 to set
up the SATELLITE option on a per-programme basis.
lf you wish to connect an external decoder or receiver as well as the dish positioner, connect the dish positioner to your
receiver's DECODER SCART socket and the external decoder/receiver to one of the decoder SCART sockets on the
dish oositioner.
Connecting an Electromagnetic or Mechanical Polariser
You can connect an electromagnetic or mechanical polariser if your receiver has the appropriate rear panel connector.
Connect the lead from the electromagnetic or mechanical polariser to this connector and then consult the section starting
on page 26 - Using an Electromagnetic or Mechanical Polariser.
Connecting Stereo Equipment
To obtain the maximum performance from your receiver, we recommend that you connect your receiver to a stereo TV or
to a stereo amplifier (for example, in a hi-fi system).
To connect a stereo TV, connect your receiver to your TV (and VCR, if required) using a SCART lead, as described
opposite, then select AV or AUX on your TV.
To connect to a stereo amplifier, firstly connect your receiver to your TV (and VCR, if required) using either a SCART
lead or a coaxial cable, as described earlier in this section. Place the speakers either side of the TV and connect the
phono leads from the AUDIO OUT sockets on your receiver to the appropriate audio input sockets on your amplifier.
Switch your amplifier to Auxiliary Input.
