What to do when... Malfunctions, their causes and remedies

Problem

No reception with active antenna

Picture and sound interference (block
formation)

Message ”No signal”

Message ”Stations no longer available”

The picture in picture (PIP) function is not
available.

I have changed the CI module and Smartcard
but the stations of the new provider are
unavailable in the station table.

Message ”Station coded”

Possible cause and remedy

Activate the supply voltage, see page 4 chapter ”Connecting antennae”.

Optimize the position or alignment of the reception antenna, see page 4.

An antenna signal is unavailable. Possible causes:

•

The antenna cable is not connected or not connected to the right socket (IN VHF/UHF)

•

The antenna system is not connected correctly. Check your settings.

•

The antenna is not aligned correctly or reception is impaired (e.g. antenna iced over or
covered by snow, indoor antenna in wrong position, for an active antenna the supply voltage
of 5 Volt is missing).

The stored station data are no longer available. Possible causes:

•

The program has stopped working.

•

The program has changed the transmission parameters.

•

Repeat the automatic station search.

1. To watch two programs at once or to watch one an record another, antenna signals must be fed to

both antenna connections ”IN VHF/UHF” and ”VHF/UHF”.

2. You are trying to watch two digital programs at the same time but you can only watch either two

analog (in PIP) or one analog and one digital program simultaneously.

3. The PIP function is only limitedly available or not available at all with certain coded programs.

In order to be able to watch the programs of the new provider after changing a CI module, you have
to run the station search again (see page 7).

The selected program cannot be decoded. Possible causes:

•

No suitable CI module is available or the module is not plugged correctly.

•

The Smartcard is not plugged.

•

The station is not released.
