introduction
Congratulations on your choice of this state-of-the-art Digital Television
Recorder (DTR). we hope you will enjoy all the new features this technology
brings to your home for many years. Your DTR is going to revolutionise the
way you watch TV.
You can pause live TV, for example while you answer the phone and then
resume watching where you left off. You can also record two different
channels at the same time. Delayed viewing, fast-forward and rewind
functions allow you to play and replay the sports action without having
to worry about the rest of the game which is still being recorded. These
features could make you lose track of time, but fortunately the LiVe TV
button brings you back to the present instantly.
we’re sure that you want to get started. on the following pages are a quick
start guide to help you set the DTR up in just six easy steps. on page 11
there is a guide on Using Your DTR Remote Control. There are detailed
explanations for each step later on in the manual and on page 44 you will
find the terms and conditions covering your DTR.
if you need any further information about your DTR, or want to see more
information about the programmes currently on Top Up TV, then just visit

Note: This product can be upgraded from software updates broadcast over
the air to your DTR. Top Up TV reserves the right to transmit software updates
that it would consider appropriate in order to improve the functionality of

Using the programme guide
Your DTR has access to two programme guides. initially your DTR will
provide the standard freeview 7 day programme guide, but as soon as
your DTR has acquired the Top Up TV on-screen programming guide, you
will have access to 14 day listings. The programme guide screen gives you
a fast way of planning your viewing and recording. To access this guide,
press the gUiDe button.

The guide shows the next three periods of 30 minutes, for each channel.
while in the programme guide, you can navigate around using the arrow
buttons. Up / DowN arrows will move between channels, while the LefT
and RighT arrows move in time. The guide is split into three sections of
30 minutes each. The information contained in a time segment usually shows the name of
the programme. This is only the case when the programme takes up the whole of that 30
minute time slot. As programmes can be longer or shorter than 30 minutes, the programme
guide has been constructed to inform you of this.
ifaprogrammeislongerthan30 minutesthenexttimeslotshows threedotstoindicatethatthe
programme runs in to the next slot. if a programme is shorter that 30 minutes the programme
name is followed by an arrow to indicate that more than one programme exists in that slot.
if a programme does not start exactly on the
time boundary, it will have two dots in front
of the programme name to indicate that it
starts later than the time shown in the column
heading.
if you leave the highlighter box over a
programme for more than five seconds, a
box will appear showing a synopsis of the
programme. it also shows the start and end
times for that programme in the top right-hand
corner.

Using your programme Library
Your programme Library is where all of your recorded and
Top Up TV Anytime programmes are stored. To access
it, press the LiBRARY button or option 2 from the Main

Your programme Library is partitioned into two sections.
The top section shows your recorded programmes, and
any Top Up TV Anytime programmes that you have
saved. You can store recordings here and delete them
once you’ve watched them. To delete a recording, use the
arrow keys to highlight the recording and press the BLUe
button. Note that to manage the space available in both
sections, you need to customise your Top Up TV Anytime
viewing – see page 26 for full details.

programmes are stored. You will notice that the screen appears slightly different. There are
two differences. The first and most important is the Days Left column, and the second is the
red SAVe button.
Days Left
This shows how many days the programme will
remain stored on your DTR before it is automatically
deleted and replaced with new programmes. You
may watch the programme at anytime, but if the
Days Left number reaches zero, you only have a few
hours left before the programme is overwritten.
if you would like to watch the programme, but do not
have time within the time remaining, you can move
the programme to the top section by pressing the ReD
button. The programme will now appear in the top
sections of the programme Library and the Days Left will show Saved. for some programmes,
rights restrictions means we are unfortunately not able to offer the Save feature.
There are a number of functions that are common to both storage areas: if you pause the
highlighter over
a
programme, that programme will automatically
start playing in the small preview window on the right-hand side
of the screen. if you wish to watch the programme, press the oK
button. if you had previously not finished watching a programme, press the gReeN button
to resume the playback from the last watched point.
You can always access the Top Up TV programmes by pressing the Top Up TV
button.

folders
programmes on y our DTR are automatically placed in
folders to help organise your library and make them easy
to find later. each recording can reside in more than one
folder, the ALL category and typically one other genre
folder, for example, Movies, Sport, Kids etc. To move
between folders use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons.
To highlight a programme use the Up and DowN
buttons. To view the programme, press the oK button.
Synopsis
with the highlighter over a recording, pressing the iNfo button will pop-up a small window
with a brief summary of the contents of that given programme. press iNfo again to exit
synopsis.
Delete
with the highlighter over a recording, press the BLUe button. You will see a confirmation
pop-up to confirm that you wish to delete the programme or exit without deleting.
icons
There are two icons used to assist you in managing your programme Library.
The P at the end of the programme name field is used to indicate that a programme has been
watched.
The
at the end of the programme name field is used to indicate that a programme is currently
‘playing’.
pop-ups
finally, you need to be aware of a few pop-ups that may
appear to help you with your selections.
Depending upon the way you have set-up your DTR, or
if you have not set-up enough storage space on your
DTR or you have simply run out of space, your DTR will
prompt you that there is not enough space to store your selection. if this happens, you will
need to delete some of your recordings if you wish to save additional programmes.
Also, a similar pop-up may appear if you are saving a
programme that will limit the storage space for any future
recording. in this instance you may save this programme,
but you should also go to the planned Recordings menu
to make sure you have enough space and if necessary
delete old recordings.

date, start and stop times. Use the LefT and RighT arrow
buttons to amend the detail of the selections, and the Up
and DowN arrow buttons to move between the settings.
UisngYourDTR
finally press the
button to add the event to your
planned Recordings list.
instant record
if while watching a programme you decide you wish to record it, press the
button on your
remote control and hold for 3 seconds. Your DTR will automatically record the programme
to the end of the scheduled time and add any of that programme that exists in your review
buffer.
editing an event
There may be an occasion where you wish to adjust the recording (event) that you are setting.
This DTR allows you to change both the start time (TiMe) and the duration of a recording.
entering a recording from the programme guide or manually from the planned Recordings
menu, the highlighter will be positioned over the pRogRAMMe field. press the RighT arrow
button to move the highlighter over the TiMe field. Use the gReeN or YeLLow buttons to
increase or decrease the start time. You can also move the highlighter to the DURATioN field
again with the RighT arrow and use the gReeN or YeLLow buttons to increase or decrease
the recording duration. once satisfied with your adjustments, press the
button to add
this recording to the list.
why edit an event?
There may be occasions where multiple recordings overlap and your DTR will warnyouthat two
recordings collide.Youmayknowthat theprogramme youwishtorecordhasmovedduetoan
over-run of a previous programme. or simply, you know that the part of the programme you
are interested in starts later than the actual programme start time; for example, a football
match. editing the timing will allow you to record programmes that would otherwise conflict
with each other and save space on your DTR for future recordings.
Your DTR is also capable of automatically adding time to a recording to guard against
programme over-run. please refer to page 27 for more information on guard Times.

Space for recordings
when you add a recording to the planned Recordings, your DTR will
check to see if there is enough space to complete all the scheduled
recordings. if there is a risk that there is not enough space, you will
see this pop-up. You have the option to cancel the recording or
continue with the event. if you continue with the recording, you
should go to the programme Library menu and try to clear space by
deleting programmes that you have already watched and no longer wish to keep. if you do
not make space, you may lose the end of your recording or fail to be able to record further
programmes.
Simultaneous recordings
Your DTR has two tuners which means that it is capable of
recording two different programmes at the same time. in the
event that you try to record more than two programmes at the
same time, your DTR will alert you to this overlap with the pop-up
shown.
Make
a
note of this overlap and go back to the planned Recordings
main menu. find the programmes that overlap and look to see
if you can manually change the start times or durations of the
overlapping events to resolve the conflict. This will still enable you to record the programmes
you wish and not miss anything of significance.
Series link
Some programmes are broadcast with special tags that indicate
that the programme is part of a series. if while setting a recording
your DTR detects this tag, it will advise you with this pop-up. You
now have three options; cancel the recording (ReD button), record

Recording while Top Up TV Anytime programmes are
updating
if you have subscribed to Top Up TV Anytime, whilst automatic
Top Up TV Anytime updates are being recorded (usually at
night), your DTR will be using both tuners to record programmes
into your Top Up TV Library. if you also want to record another
programme at the same time, you may see this screen. Your DTR will tell you which Top Up
TV Anytime programmes will be affected, allowing you to choose which recording is more
important to you and which recording(s) should not to be made.

Customising Top Up TV Anytime
one of the great things about Top Up TV Anytime is
that you don’t have to download all the programmes
available. You can choose to record and download
only those programmes from channels you watch. So
for example, if you don’t have kids, you can save space
on your hard drive by de-selecting the kids channels,
giving you more space to download those you do
want to watch. Customising your channels is easy and
should be done to ensure you maximise the amount of
space you have available for your own recordings. This
menu presents a list of available Top Up TV Anytime
channels. Use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to
move between columns. Use the Up and DowN arrows
to move the highlighter over a channel for activation.
press the ReD button to activate the channel.
Note the two times on the bottom of the screen.
The Top Up TV (TUTV) hours per week will change as
you activate or de-activate channels. The available
space left for personal recordings on your DTR’s hard
disk drive (storage space) is shown on the far right.
in some cases there will be insufficient free storage space in the personal Disk Space area
to re-assign for Top Up TV Anytime use. in this case, a pop-up will be displayed as shown
to enable you to remove content from the Record Library. Use the Up and DowN arrows to
select a programme and then delete it by pressing the ReD button. once you have created
enough space, you can activate the new channel by pressing the gReeN button. To exit this
menu press the YeLLow button.
You may attempt to activate a channel for which you do not have the right level of subscription.
if this occurs, you will be taken to the Subscription screen. follow the steps on screen to
change your subscription.
warnings
There are some warnings that may pop-up as a result of some of your selections / actions.
The first of these may be if you de-activate a Top Up TV Anytime channel. The warning
will inform you that if you de-activate this channel, you will no longer receive any of that
channel’s programmes and will delete any recordings made from that channel.
Thesecondwarningyoumayseeisinactivatinganewchannel, youmaynothaveenoughspace

Recordings as soon as possible. please refer to page 20 on how to make space by deleting
unwanted recordings.

Recording preferences
There are two options available to change, the guard
time and the rewind buffer size. Use the Up and DowN
arrow buttons to move between the two options and the
LefT and RighT arrows to scroll through the available
values for that option.
Recording guard time
A guard time is a small amount of time added to the
start and end of a recording to help protect against programmes starting slightly ahead of
schedule or more typically over-running their scheduled finishing time. There is obviously a
small penalty for this feature which is that you will use up more space for each recording with
a guard time set. The available settings are off, 1, 3 or 5 minutes. As you can see the default
setting is off to maximise the available disk space for recordings.
pause live TV
Your DTR automatically records and buffers the channel you are currently watching. The
size of this record buffer is set to 30 minutes. This means that you can pause and rewind the
channel you are watching back by 30 minutes, or by the amount of time you have set as the
pause live TV buffer size. As with the guard times, this obviously takes up space on your hard
disk drive for recording other programmes so if you do not use this feature you can turn it
off to increase the available space for recordings. The available settings are off, 15, 30, 45
or 60 minutes.
SteingUp
if while watching a programme you decide to record it, your DTR will use as much of the buffer
as is available to add to your recording in an attempt to record the whole of the programme
from the start.
Messages
occasionally, events may occur that your DTR stores
for your information. for example, your DTR is capable
of having its software upgraded automatically via the
aerial. if you have any messages waiting to be read, a
small envelope icon will appear as shown. To view any
messages, select Messages from the Main Menu or Set-Up
menu. once you have read your messages, you may
delete them by pressing the ReD button.

Child Lock
This menu option enables you to set-up parental
Control levels and to determine the access you and your
family have to programmes. As soon as you select this
option, you will be prompted to enter your personal
identification Number (piN). The default number for this
is 0000. it is highly recommended that you change this
number as soon as possible. once you have entered a
valid piN you are given the option to change the piN by
pressing the ReD button and following the simple steps
on-screen.
Maximum Certificate
This sets the maximum certificate value allowed on any viewed content (live or recorded).
if at anytime a user tries to view programmes with a certificate higher than the maximum
certificate allowed, the DTR will blank the screen, mute the audio and pop-up the piN entry
window. Unless a valid piN is entered, the programme cannot be viewed. The available
settings are; U, pg, 12, 15, g or 18. Note that the default is 18 which means that there is no
automatic block of any content from being viewed. You should lower this to a level suitable
for the people with access to your DTR.
Note that setting a certificate does not limit the programmes that can be recorded, only what
can be viewed. This allows viewing decisions to be made when the viewer is present. This
may not be foolproof – we rely on broadcasters to rate their programmes appropriately.
Lock period Start & Lock period end
This allows the DTR to be locked down during the START
and eND times. Use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to
amend the time in 15 minute steps. in both cases, the
default value is off.
Lock
once you have set lock periods, you will have to activate
them by setting Lock on. Likewise, you can also turn lock
periods off with this option.
Channel Lock
This menu allows you to individually lock selected channels. each time a locked channel is
selected to be watched you will be required to enter your piN.

There is also an option to press the ReD button for tuning information. This screen shows
the current status of the two tuners, what channel number they are currently set to and the
Strength & Quality of the signals being received. You can also change the channel a given
tuner is set to with the coloured buttons; ReD & gReeN for Tuner 1 or YeLLow & BLUe for
Tuner 2.

Troubleshooting
Reception problems
when you purchased your DTR, your dealer should have checked your postcode to ensure
that you can receive digital terrestrial TV. if you wish to check this yourself, please look on
the internet websites:- www.freeview.co.uk or www.digitaluk.co.uk
once you have established that your area should be able to receive digital terrestrial TV,
there are a few reasons why you may be experiencing problems.
•
Your current aerial and cabling may not be able to receive all the digital
channels due to its age and condition. Now is the time to renew them. we
recommend the use of CAi “Benchmarked” aerials. Look for the logo.
Always use good quality, double screened aerial cable. e.g. CT100 coaxial
cable.
Standard
•
•
In your location the digital channels may be transmitted on different frequencies to your
existing analogue signals and you may need a different type of aerial to receive them.
Check the ‘group’ of your aerial, you may need a ‘wideband’ one.
The new digital channels may be transmitted from a new transmitter and if this is the
case the aerial would have to be re-aligned. Alternatively, add a second aerial to your
system.
•
•
•
•
•
If you need to use a mast-head amplifier, make sure that it is a digitally compatible one
and that it is as close to the aerial as possible.
In some blocks of flats, filters may be in use that will interfere with digital signals. Consult
with your landlord if you have difficulties.
Indoor or window mounted aerials are not recommended, except in areas where the
signal is extremely strong.
Your aerial could be too high. Try adjusting the height of the aerial to avoid picking up
unwanted signals from other transmitters.
If you live near a road, the passing traffic may cause problems. Try pointing the aerial at
an upward angle over the road, this helps reduce engine interference picked up by the
aerial.
•
•
If you get periodic picture losses, this could be due to electrical interference picked up
in your house. This could be from a central heating thermostat, a fridge/freezer, or any
other item with a motor. Try switching these appliances off temporarily to establish what
is causing the problem. Then replace the problem item.
If your aerial comes into your room via an aerial connection point (socket), replace it with
a good quality shielded one. This will help prevent electrical noise entering your aerial.

Tuner conflict resolution
in some cases there may not be enough tuners for
all the functions your DTR is trying to perform, for
example if two recordings are taking place and you
try to change channels, you will see this pop-up
menu. if you really wish to change channels, go
to the planned Recordings menu and cancel the
recording. pressing the ReD button will take you to
the planned Recordings menu.
Top Up TV Anytime conflict resolution
watching live TV may conflict with the requirement
to record Top Up TV Anytime programmes. This may
occur if you are watching a programme when the
Top Up TV Anytime programmes start, you switch
on your DTR while Top Up TV Anytime programmes
are being recorded or you are watching a Top Up
TV Anytime programme but then try to change
channels.
in the event of a conflict, you will see this pop-up. if you press the ReD button, you will
continue to record the Top Up TV Anytime programmes, however, if you press the gReeN
button the Top Up TV Anytime recordings will be abandoned and your DTR will be considered
to be in override mode.
Your DTR will remain in override mode for one hour or until it is placed in standby.
in the same way, if your DTR is trying to collect TV
listings or Top Up TV Anytime information, your
DTR will pop-up this warning. if you press the ReD
button, you will continue to collect the required
information, however, if you press the gReeN button
the task will be abandoned.
By overriding this task, your DTR may fail to update the TV listings and as a consequence, may
fail to record Top Up TV Anytime programmes.
Loss of signal
if your DTR can not detect a signal, it will present this icon in the top centre of your TV screen.
Check all connections or refer to Reception problems on page 30.

if your DTR fails to respond
invery exceptional circumstances, yourDTR maynotrespond as expected when switchingit on.
if this does happen, it is most likely to have been caused by corruption of programmes
stored on your disk. This can occasionally cause the DTR to remain in standby mode or fail
to respond to the remote control while not displaying any picture. however, normal DTR
operation can usually be restored, by performing a reset as noted below.
wARNiNg
Resetting your DTR can cause all saved programmes to be lost.
These steps should only be taken after carefully checking all DTR connections and ensuring
you have working batteries in your DTR remote control.

Safe use and care of your audio visual equipment
we have designed and made this product to meet european safety standards, but as with any
electrical equipment you must take care to get the longest working life from it and stay safe.
here are a few tips to help you do this.
fmration
i

protect the mains lead. You must ensure the mains lead cannot be walked on, crushed,
chafed, cut, and so on. The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains)
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the apparatus itself has been turned off. if
you are not going to use the apparatus for a long time, be sure to disconnect the apparatus
from the wall outlet.
Avoid harsh conditions such as wet or damp places, high humidity, strong vibration,
extremely high or low temperatures, strong sunlight or places which are dusty. please avoid
the contact of the set with water or humidity. Do not put into operation near bath, swimming
pools.
Never let anyone push objects into holes and ventilation slots on the equipment.

lead.
This product is only designed for household or similar general use. Any other use may invalidate

a cabinet, allow at least a 10cm gap all around. Take care to provide a good air circulation. place
the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat built-up in the apparatus.
Don’t obstruct the ventilation slots, including those underneath, with soft furnishings. The hot
air, which arises during the operation, should be ventilated with sufficient air circulation. please
do not put the set into closed areas and do not cover it. overheating will shorten the life of the
equipment and increase the risk of fire.
Cleaning
Disconnect the mains supply and use only a lightly dampened soft cloth. Do not use chemical
solvents or strong detergents as these may damage the cosmetic finish.
Batteries
Remove batteries when the equipment is not to be used for a long time. Batteries left in
equipment may cause damage through deterioration and corrosive leakage, invalidating the
guarantee. To protect the environment please use local recycling facilities for battery disposal.

occasions, normally 1 month apart when switchover happens. Digital UK, the body
leading digital TV switchover, and broadcasters will advise you when to reset your
channels on each occasion.
if you do not reset your channels, you risk losing some or all of your TV services
during and following switchover.
please refer to this instruction manual for help with resetting channels.

on your equipment you must perform a first-time installation and do not just add
channels.
