Installing new DVB software.
To ensure your DVB-S receiver is always performing at the state of the art, newly 
developed software versions are made available from time to time; these are 
broadcast via satellite and can be automatically installed on your set (only pos-
sible via ASTRA1).
Software is recognised automatically 
The set can determine whether a new software version is available. This occurs 
at night when your EPG is automatically updated. For this, your TV set has to re-
main in the standby mode (do not switch off using the on/off button on the set).
If a new software version has been found, the set will indicate this with an on-
screen message the next time the set is switched on: You can decide whether or 
not you want to download the new software.
Confi rm using OK, so that the new software can be loaded and installed via 
satellite. Continue as set out in the Downloading software section.

Searching for new software
If you want to carry out a manual search for new software, proceed as follows:
Call the TV menu using the MENU button.
Confi rm the Settings using OK.
Confi rm the Miscellaneous using OK.
Select DVB software and press OK.
If you start the search using OK, the set checks if there is a new software 
version available.
If there is a new version available, the set generates an on-screen message.
Downloading software
If you press OK in the dialogue above, you can decide whether you want to 
download the new software immediately, when you switch off the set or not 
at all. We recommend you always carry out the update of the digital software. 
This is the only way to ensure your set is always up to date.
If you do decide to update, the software is initialised on your set and you are 
informed of the status with a grey bar.
Do not switch your set off during this time. This process may take up 
to one hour. You will be informed when the process is completed.
After the software is updated, you will be asked to switch your TV set off and 
back on again using the on/standby switch.
If the update was not carried out, you will be asked several times when you 
switch on the set whether you want to carry out this update.

Selecting providers and stations
If you want to change the provider for analogue TV reception (the station which 
transmits EPG data) to have other stations evaluated, you can do this under 
Select provider.
Select Select provider and call this menu using OK. If the station you want to 
switch to is not listed in the Select provider list, then use the yellow coloured 
key to start the automatic search for stations with EPG data. This takes a while.
Or, if you know the station that transmits EPG data, press the blue coloured key 
to compile manually. Select the provider in the station list and adopt it by using

select and deactivate these via Station selection. Call the station selection by 
using the blue coloured key.
First, all stations are marked with the 
✓ symbol so that their data is displayed 
in the programme guide (precondition: provided EPG data is broadcast for the 
respective station). Stations indicated by 
E are analogue terrestrial/cable sta-
tions, stations indicated by 
T are DVB-T stations, stations indicated by C are 
DVB-C stations and stations indicated by 
S are DVB-S stations. These stations 
are available for evaluation in the programme guide.
Select the stations you want to omit from the programme guide one after 
another and deactivate each one by using OK. The 
✓ symbol is removed.
Data capture
After these settings or after each time the set is switched off using the mains 
switch, the data must fi rst be collected, before switching on the set. 
To do this, select the station you have defi ned as a provider and leave the TV 
set switched on for about one hour or switch the set to the standby mode. After 
about two minutes in standby mode, the orange indicator on the set lights up 
(for Spheros R 37, both indicators light up). The data capture begins and lasts 
about 1 hour. When data acquisition is terminated, the indicator turns red 
again. The data are also automatically captured between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. 
when the TV is switched to standby.
A prerequisite for data capture is that Data capture is on (for DVB + ana-
logue) in the EPG menu. 
Note: If the TV set is switched off using the mains switch or the mains plug is 
pulled out, all EPG data are lost.
If, for example, you cannot receive any analogue EPG providers or if you only 
use DVB, you should set the data capture to on (only for DVB).
Switch on TV when marked
You can have the TV switched on automatically from standby at the beginning 
of the marked programme. If you are not present at the time, a safety prompt 
makes sure the TV switches off again after 5 minutes.

Digital teletext operation (only for MHEG-5 device versions)
In the GB, the teletext for DVB-T stations is transmitted as per the MHEG-5 
standard (standard of the Multimedia and Hypermedia Expert Group). It con-
tains text, graphics, functions and links.
The operation of these menus depends on the particular provider. Normally after 
a station is changed, the provider broadcasting the digital teletext makes an 
introductory offer for this service on the screen via menu selection. Follow these 
notes.
If no message appears telling you how to switch to digital teletext after switch-
ing to another station, press the TEXT key. If a selection for DVB subtitles is 
available, this item must be hidden before.
Depending on the provider’s respective offer, you can use the  
buttons and the OK button, the coloured keys, the END/TEXT button and 
sometimes even the numeric buttons.
If you want to close the digital teletext, just select a different station using the 
P+/P– buttons or follow the menu prompts on the screen.
Note: 
Digital teletext is not available when DVB-subtitles are being displayed.
If a timer recording is programmed at the TV-set, at the start time of the 
recording the digital teletext mode is switched off automatically. •
