Frequently Asked Questions - UFS 933 KATHREIN

How do I connect the Kathrein UFS 933 receiver?
Connect the antenna cable from the LNB to the LNB IN port on the back. Use the included HDMI cable to connect the HDMI port to your TV. Alternatively, use a SCART cable (not included) to the TV port. Finally, plug the power cable into a mains socket and switch on the receiver.
Why is there no signal or black screen?
First, ensure the antenna cable is properly connected and the satellite dish is aligned. Check that the correct input (HDMI or SCART) is selected on your TV. Verify the receiver and TV are powered on. If the problem persists, try resetting the receiver: switch off using the ON/OFF switch, wait 30 seconds, and turn on again.
How do I perform the initial setup?
After connecting the receiver, switch it on. The first screen asks for language selection. Use the arrow buttons to choose your language and press OK or the Blue button. Then set the time zone and daylight saving. The receiver will load the channel list (preset for Astra 19.2°). If needed, you can run a channel search later via Menu > Installation > Auto Scanning.
How can I lock a channel (parental control)?
Press Menu on the remote, navigate to Parental Lock (press the square button until you reach it). The option Channel Lock is active. Press OK to open the channel list, select a channel with the arrow keys, and press OK to lock it (a lock icon appears). Press Red button to save, enter the password 0000 to confirm. The locked channel will require the password to watch.
How do I update the software?
Go to Menu > Software Manager > OTA Software Download. The receiver will check for a new version via satellite signal. If an update is available, confirm with Yes. Do not turn off the receiver during the update. After completion, the receiver restarts automatically. You can verify the new version in Menu > System Setup > System Information.
What should I do if the remote control stops working?
Check if the batteries are inserted correctly (polarity shown inside the compartment) and are not flat. Replace with new AAA 1.5 V batteries if needed. Make sure you point the remote directly at the receiver. Remove any obstacles between the remote and the receiver.
Can I connect the receiver to a single-cable (Unicable) system?
Yes, the UFS 933 supports Unicable. During installation, go to Menu > Installation > Antenna Setting and set Unicable to ON. You will then need to enter the frequency and transmission channel (SatCR) provided by your Unicable multiswitch. Each receiver must use a unique transmission channel to avoid interference.
How do I reset the receiver to factory settings?
While the manual does not detail a factory reset, you can restore default settings by navigating to Menu > System Setup > Factory Default (if available). Alternatively, you can perform a fresh installation by rerunning the initial setup. Note that this will delete all user settings and channel lists.
What is the meaning of the error message 'No Signal' (102)?
Error 102 indicates the receiver detects a short circuit or incorrect voltage on the antenna cable. Check the antenna cable for damage or loose connections. Ensure the LNB is properly earthed. If the problem persists, consult an antenna specialist. You can also try turning off the receiver, disconnecting the antenna cable for 30 seconds, and reconnecting.
How do I clean the receiver?
Always disconnect the mains plug before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use any liquids, sprays, or cleaning agents. Never insert objects into the ventilation slots. Avoid opening the casing.

2.3 General notes

Effects of the heat generated by the unit

Every electronic device generates heat. Although the temperature rise of the unit lies within the permissible range, sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers may, however, become discoloured by the effects of constant heat over time.

The feet of the unit can cause changes to the colour of treated furniture surfaces.

▶ To avoid possible discolouration, place the unit on a suitable stable flat underlay.

Product return/Original packaging

Due to the nature of their construction receivers are fragile, and only the original packaging can be relied on to provide adequate protection. If the receiver is not shipped correctly, the guarantee/warranty on it will be voided.

▶ Keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time.

Updates

The information in this manual was correct at the time of going to press. However, we reserve the right to make changes at any time and without prior notice. If new software which affects the information in this manual (e.g. changes to the menus and/or functions) is released for your receiver, where we believe it necessary, we will make available a new manual for download under www.kathrein.com.

▶ Note the basic settings that you make when setting up the receiver for the first time, so that you can restore them later, if necessary.

Tip

Keep these instructions for further reference and give them to the next owner if the unit is sold.

4.3 Remote control functions

Tip

  • This sections describes the basic functions of the remote control for displaying broadcast TV programmes (live mode). For a detailed description of the remote control, see the UFS 933 comprehensive instructions for use at www.kathrein.com.
  • Many buttons have one or several context-dependent functions described either at the bottom of the user interface or at the bottom/top of the main menu.
  • Use the remote control to switch the receiver to stand-by to minimise the power consumption.
  • For longer breaks in use, disconnect the receiver from the mains so as to avoid possible damage due to power surges (lightning strikes). A switchable multi-way socket extension allows you to do this for both the TV set and other associated devices with a single switch.

6 Connecting the receiver

6.1 Requirements

This Quick Start Guide describes how to connect and commission single systems of type DiSEqC™1.0 or simple LNB for the satellites Astra 19.2° East and Hotbird 13° East.

For more information, see the UFS 933 comprehensive instructions for use at www.kathrein.com. Contact your specialist dealer directly if you have questions or encounter problems.

Tip

Note the difference between a single-device system and a single-cable system:

In classic satellite distribution (single-device system), each receiver/participant is connected to its own antenna cable.

In the single-cable system, several receivers/participants are connected to a single antenna cable. Transmission channels are used to allow each receiver/participant to receive broadcast channels independently.

Setting the single-cable system

Tipp

Information about the single-cable system

In the single-cable system, several receivers/subscribers are connected to a common antenna cable. The system functions as follows:

- Channels from several satellites are transmitted on up to 32 transmission channels. - Each transmission channel is permanently assigned to one receiver/subscriber.

Note

Each transmission channel may only be assigned to one receiver/ subscriber to prevent cross-channel interference.

- One transmission frequency is assigned to each transmission channel. See the documentation of the single-cable multi-switch to determine which frequency you must assign to which transmission channel.

Software changes/use of applications

Any modifications to the receiver software, or the use of applications not provided by Kathrein will invalidate the warranty: You will have to bear the costs yourself for dispatching and repairing any receiver that requires attention due to modifications to the software and use of applications other than those provided by Kathrein.

Therefore you should use exclusively software and applications provided by Kathrein for your receiver. These are available by downloading from the satellite or from the Internet (www.kathrein.com).

Kathrein assumes no liability for the loss of recordings/data on internal hard disks or external storage media.

The software installed on the device/product before dispatch from the factory is suitable for its function and is of the quality usual for this type of software. It has not been technically possible to fully eliminate all bugs during the software development process. However, the software as delivered is considered to be defective only if it fails to perform the functions usual for the device/product. A shortcoming that causes only an insignificant reduction in quality does not rank as a defect. Functional shortcomings in the software or program that result from hardware defects, ambient conditions, incorrect operation or the like do not rank as software defects.
