|||
Q | What is Multiroom? | ||
A | Multiroom allows watching of more than one different channel in your home. The | ||
KSF-620R2 allows you to watch two different channels in your home through one physical unit. | |||
Q | What is Dynamic Update? | ||
A | With dynamic update, the receiver will automatically detect changes in transmission | ||
of services and updates itself without the need to scan. In simple terms, the receiver | |||
will update any changes to channel offerings by itself without the need to do a manual scan. | |||
Q | How can you watch Multiroom? | ||
A | The Multiroom receiver behaves like two set top boxes but is physically only one. | ||
It has two tuners, two sets of memory and processors on its main board allowing | |||
it to operate like two receivers. It has two outputs which can be used to view two | |||
different channels. Within the Multiroom, we call the two receivers Master & Slave. | |||
Q | Can I change a channel without affecting the other channel? | ||
A | Yes, you can. The slave receiver allows remote control function via the RF cable. This | ||
allows changing of the channels from a remote location. | |||
Q | What are the most common uses of this receiver? | ||
A | a) | Installation in your main lounge and bedroom. | |
b) | Watching one channel and recording another ( via your analog recorder, VCR etc ) | ||
c) | MATV Headends. Allows reduction of number of receivers in headends. | ||
Q | How do you suggest I connect the receiver to my equipment? | ||
A | a) | From the Master receiver, connect to your main TV via RCA/AV ( or any of the SCART output ). | |
b) | From the Slave receiver, connect to your second TV via the RF cable | ||
c) | Connect the RCA/AV out of the Slave receiver to your VCR | ||
d) | If your VCR has more than one Input, you can connect one of the outputs from the Master receiver as well. | ||
Q | I want to watch picture from both Master and Slave in my second room. Is this possible? | ||
A | Yes, this is possible. Do the following: | ||
a) | Loop your Antenna out of the Master receiver to Antenna In of Slave receiver. | ||
b) | Go into the setup of the Master receiver and change the RF Output channel to UHF 51 or any other free one. | ||
c) | Start the tuning on your second TV and stop once you find the picture from the Master. | ||
d) | Save to any of the free channel numbers available on your TV and then exit on your TV. | ||
Q | I have more than two TVs in the house, can I control the slave receiver from more than two rooms? | ||
A | Yes, you can. You can install an all powerpass splitter and RF cabling to your other rooms from your RF | ||
output of the slave receiver. You can then install additional room kits which will allow you to watch the picture | |||
from the slave receiver and allow you to change the channel. | |||
Q | I use this receiver to watch one channel and record another. How do I change the channel on the | ||
slave receiver without going to the second room to change the channel? | |||
A | In the main room, press the PAUSE button on the remote control for about two seconds and then release. | ||
The receiver will switch to the Slave and the front panel will display "slave". Now you can change the channels | |||
and also set up the second room receiver from the main room. Press the PAUSE button for two seconds | |||
again to return to the Master receiver. | |||
Note: This function is only available from software release 13.05.05. | |||
Q | I can no longer see the picture on the second tuner. It was working before. What could be the problem? | ||
A | It is possible that the second tuner is on standby. Press the standby button on the remote control from the | ||
second room. Allow about 30 seconds for the receiver to start up. | |||
