070 NM 1061
for the reception of digital terrestrial, digital cable
and analogue stations for TV and radio pro-
grams. The DVBD conversion kit is installed in the
TV set and you do not need any additional remote...

40. Basic differences between analog terrestrial
reception and DVB-T
Information for our dealers and interested
customers.
In order to understand how the behaviour
of DVB-T receivers differs from that of the
analog terrestrial receivers used until
now, two things are important: digital
transmission and the simultaneous broad-
casting network.
Digital transmission
A DVB transmitter does not transmit only
a single programme, but a set of pro-
grammes – normally six to eight. The
information for each...

40. Basic differences between analog terrestrial
reception and DVB-T
Addition
Cancellation
In most cases, only a few of the 8,192
carrier frequencies will be fully cancelled
out and the information which is lost can
be reconstructed by the error-correction
function of the receiver. Reception beco-
mes impossible only if very strong reflec-
tions cause the loss of too many carrier
frequencies. 
The phase relationship between two sig-
nals depends on the path taken by these
signals on their way to the...

Calling the menu
MENU
The settings of the satellite antenna system must
be entered in the menu Configuration so that
the TV set knows them.
These settings should always be made in the
order in which they are shown in the right-hand
column of the menu, starting at the bottom, i.e.
LNB supply voltage, DiSEqC system, etc..
LNB supply voltage
The LNB voltages for selection of the polarisation (hori-
zontal H = 18V, vertical V = 14V)
are already set and do not nor-
mally need to be changed.
If the cable...
