Dear customer,

congratulations on your decision to buy the DigiPal 2 digital

receiver.

This operating manual is designed to assist you in using the

comprehensive functions of your new digital receiver to the

optimum.

We have tried to keep the instructions as brief as possible,

while making them as comprehensive, and comprehensible,

as necessary.

The range of features of your unit is constantly being expan-

ded in the form of software updates. This may lead to addi-

tional operating steps becoming necessary which are not yet

described in this manual, or the operation of existing func-

tions may be altered. For this reason, you should occasio-

nally visit the TechniSat homepage in the Internet, to downlo-

ad the most up-to-date operating manual.

We wish you many years of enjoyable entertainment with

your TechniSat DigiPal 2 !

Your

TechniSat Team

3 Please read this first

> Before you set up your unit for operation, please first

check that the package contains all the components

that should be there. The following are supplied as

standard:

1 digital receiver, 1 mains power cable, 1 remote con-

trol unit, 1 operating manual, 1 guarantee card, 2 bat-

teries (1,5V AAA size).

> Insert the batteries provided in the battery compart-

ment of the remote control unit. Note the correct pola-

rity when inserting the batteries.

> Before connecting the digital receiver, please first read

the safety notes in Chapter 3.

>Chapters 4, 5 and 6describe connection of the

receiver, and adjusting it to the external installation

(dish antenna, LNC, etc.), to the television set, VCR,

etc. These settings need only be made once during

initial installation, and need only be adjusted or chan-

ged when there are any changes in your equipment,

i.e. if a different external unit is connected, or additio-

nal appliances are connected.

>Chapter 7 describes all the functions necessary for

day-to-day operation, such as programme selection or

volume adjustment.

>Chapter 8 contains information on how to add new

programmes, and how to change the programme

order.

Important notes on operation

The use of a so-called "On Screen Display" simplifies the

operation of the digital receiver, and reduces the number of

keys required on the remote control unit. All functions are

displayed on the screen, and can be controlled by a few key-

strokes. Related functions are grouped together in a "MENU".

The selected function is highlighted in a different colour. The

lower line of the display shows coloured bars representing the

red, green, yellow and blue function keys. These coloured

bars represent different functions in the various menues,

which can be executed by pressing the appropriate colour-

coded key (“multi-function key”) on the remote control unit.

The function keys are only active when a brief description is

displayed in the appropriate field.

The descriptions of keys and terms that appear in the OSD

menu are printed in bold type in this operating manual.

will cause a help text to be displayed, pressing again will

return to normal operation.

material. Please sort the components apprpriately, and dispo-

se of them via the “Dual System”, or your equivalent recy-
