USER MANUAL Ariva T25 Ferguson

Ferguson receivers support recording on external hard disk drives (HDDs) and flash memories (pendrives). In all instances, the correct operation of the recording function depends on the type of connected memory! You must read the following limitations.

REMEMBER:

  1. In order to use an external USB memory, the memory must support the USB 2.0 standard. To ensure stable recording and playback, you must use a memory with a recording speed of 9.0 MB/s or greater. Slower hard disk drives and flash memories may not function properly, have problems with recording (image jitter), or not function at all!!!
  2. Only disks with one basic NTFS or FAT32 partition (we recommend using the NTFS format) will function properly. If you do not have such a format, prepare the disk on your computer before connecting it to the receiver.
  3. Highly fragmented or used memories may also not operate smoothly or correctly.
  4. External hard disk drives should be autonomously powered, since the built-in USB port is unable to provide sufficient power.
  5. Only one of the two USB ports can be used at the same time!

CAUTION

  1. Under no circumstances should you disconnect the USB device from the receiver during recording or playback. Disconnecting during operation may cause damage to the receiver and/or flash memory, and to the recorded data.
  2. Do not touch the working device (and in particular the USB connector) with wet hands. Risk of electric shock and permanent damage to the receiver!

There are no special antennas for DVB-T. For collection of digital television, the same antennas as analog TV reception. There is no need to change the antenna system. It is worth to check the quality and condition of the plant, which has so far been used for analog TV reception.

Reception problems can be weathered with old antenna systems, or grid antennas. It is recommended to use directional antennas with signal amplifier, depending on the particular situation you may also establish impedance transformer. Indoor antenna may be used only in areas with high signal intensity.
