Chapter 1
Introduction
The SBI-2060 digital receiver is fully compliant with the international Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard, and thus
is able to receive digital broadcasts of that standard. For its
operation you need an antenna, which must be installed appropriately.
NOTE
In general we equate a channel with a frequency. However,
unlike analogue broadcasts, digital broadcasts are not all
assigned to their own frequencies; instead, multiple television broadcasts are transmitted through a single frequency.
The frequency in digital broadcasting is usually called transponder or multiplex. To reduce confusion in this manual,
the word service is preferably used than channel as a term
to indicate one television or radio broadcast.
1.1
Features
This digital receiver has the following features:
• Supports DiSEqC 1.0, DiSEqC 1.1, DiSEqC 1.2 and USALS protocols.
2
Introduction
• Can store up to 10,000 television and radio services.
• You can edit the services list.
• Can create lists of your favourite services.
• Can view information about the current television or radio programme.
• Has an electronic programme guide that provides an
overview of scheduled programmes.
• Time-shift is a special technical feature available on this
digital receiver. You can pause a programme you are
watching and resume it again at a later time. Then you
can quickly go to any part of the current programme by
fast forward or rewind search.
• If you have an external hard drive connected to the digital receiver via the USB port, you can record television
programmes into it.
1.2
Controlling the digital receiver
You can operate the digital receiver with the remote control or
the buttons on the front panel.
NOTE
When the digital receiver is off but plugged into a wall
socket, we say that it is in standby mode; on the other hand,
when it is on, it is in active mode. Even when you are not
using the digital receiver, you should keep it plugged into
a wall socket to be in standby mode so that it can run timer
events at any time.
1.2.1
Front panel
The front panel of the digital receiver has buttons to control
the digital receiver, specific lights and a display to indicate its
status. The following indicates what they mean.
1.2 Controlling the digital receiver 3

buttons switch to the previous or next service. They are also used to navigate in menus and interactive screens.
There is a flap on the middle of the front panel that protects
the USB port behind it from dust, into which you can plug an
external hard drive and record a programme into it.
If you want to watch pay services, pull
the right edge of the front panel to open
the flap, then insert your subscription
card into the front slot.When you insert the subscription card, the side on
which the chip is mounted must face
upward.

• The wall socket should be near the equipment. Do not
run an extension lead to the unit.
• The mains plug shall remain readily operable so that it
can be removed easily to disconnect the power.
• When placed in a cabinet, make sure there is a minimum
space of 10 centimetres around it. For the physical specification of the digital receiver, refer to Table 2.2.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched.
If the cord is damaged, do not use the digital receiver and
get the cord replaced.
• Refer all servicing to a qualified service technician.
• To maintain proper ventilation, always leave sufficient
space around the digital receiver.

Setup
2.4
Connecting up your digital receiver
There are several ways to set up the digital receiver. Set up the
digital receiver suitably to your television and other devices.
If you have any problem with your setup or need help, contact
your dealer.
2.4.1
Connecting to the antenna
Whatever sort of connection you have between
the digital receiver and the television, you need
to connect the digital receiver to the antenna so
that it can receive digital television broadcasts.
Connect the antenna cable to the LNB IN connector.
NOTE
Perhaps you are expecting that the satellite antenna could
simultaneously catch all frequencies coming from a satellite
and send them to the digital receiver. However, the satellite
antenna only sends the frequencies that it can catch with the
LNB frequency and polarisation specified by the digital receiver. So if you have another digital receiver linked from
the LNB OUT connector, you can only use it limitedly. See
§3.1 for more details.
2.4.2
Connecting to your television set

Searching for broadcasting services
This digital receiver can be operated with both fixed antenna
and motorized antenna. You have to configure antenna settings according to your antenna system in the following order:
1. Configure LNB settings. Refer to §3.1.1.
2. Set the position of your desired satellites if you have a
motorized antenna. You can control the antenna in DiSEqC 1.2 mode or USALS mode. Refer to §3.1.2 for DiSEqC 1.2, and refer to §3.1.3 for USALS.
3. Perform a service search.
3.1 Searching for broadcasting services
3.1.1
15
Configuring LNB settings
There are two large frequency bands for satellite broadcasts.
One is C band which ranges approximately from 4 to 6 GHz.
The other is Ku band which ranges approximately from 12 to
18 GHz.
The LNB (Low Noise Block converter)
is used to take a wide band of relatively high frequencies, amplify and
convert them to similar signals that
is carried at a much lower frequency,
which is called Intermediate Frequency
(IF). High frequencies from satellites
are converted into 950 to 2150 MHz by
a LNB.
Select the Installation > LNB
Setting menu to configure the
LNB settings. You should see a
screen like the left figure.
Pressing the OK button on the Satellite Name option displays
the satellite list in alphabetic order. Select the satellite toward
which your antenna is set to face. Even if you cannot find your
desired satellite, you can add your desired satellite to the satellite list. See §3.2 for a detailed description.
The digital receiver has a database of broadcasting satellites
and their transponders, containing the following information:
16
Service Search
satellite position, frequency range, symbol rate, polarization
and LNB frequency corresponding to the frequency range.
So you might not have to specify the LNB Frequency option.
However, if you have selected the Other entry at the Satellite
Name option to specify a satellite that is not in the satellite list,
you might have to fill in the correct LNB frequency. The absolute difference between a broadcasting frequency and its LNB
frequency must be within 950 to 2150 MHz. For example, if the
frequency band of your desired satellite ranges from 3660 to
4118 MHz, you have to set the LNB Frequency option to 5150
MHz.
The LNB has to be supplied with electric power to operate. Set
the LNB Power option to On if it does not have any other power
supply.
If you use a dual LNB or two antennas which is connected to
the 22 kHz tone switch box, set the 22 kHz option to On.
The digital receiver is designed to be compatible with DiSEqC
(Digital Satellite Equipment Control) switches. It is possible
to connect several antennas to one digital receiver by DiSEqC
switches. A DiSEqC 1.0 switch allows switching between up to
four satellite sources and a DiSEqc 1.1 switch allows switching
between up to 16 satellite sources.
Set the DiSEqC 1.0 option and the DiSEqC 1.1 option according to your antenna configuration.
For example, to select the antenna connected to the A5 input in the left figure, set
the DiSEqC 1.1 option to 2 of 4 and the DiSEqC 1.0 option to 1 of 4. If you have a mini
DiSEqC 1.0 switch which has only two inputs, you should set the DiSEqC 1.0 option
to Mini A instead of 1 of 4.

Configuring DiSEqC 1.2 settings
Your motorized antenna will turn toward your desired satellites horizontally by DiSEqC 1.2.
When you switch to a service, if it is not
provided by the current satellite, it will take
longer time than usual because the antenna
has to turn to its position.
To use the DiSEqC 1.2 protocol,
select the Installation > Motorized DiSEqC 1.2 menu. You
should see a screen like the left
figure. At first you have to set the
Motorized DiSEqC 1.2 option to
Enable.
To get the correct position of your desired satellite, take the
following steps:
1. Choose your desired satellite at the Satellite Name option.
2. Set the DiSEqC Command Mode option to User.
3. Set the Motor Control option to Goto. Then the antenna
will turn toward your selected satellite by the position
data that the digital receiver has.
4. If the receiving quality is not good, tune the antenna
finely with the Movement option. If you set it to 2(E),
the antenna will move to the east by two degrees. At this
time you had better check the receiving quality of every
transponder and choose the best one at the Transponder

(or Frequency) option. It will be helpful to your fine tuning.
5. Finally set the Motor Control option to Store to save the
tuned position when the receiving quality is best.
There are more motor control options for installers, but this
guide does not describe them. If you are an installer, refer them
to the manual about the STAB rotor.
3.1.3
Configuring USALS settings
USALS (Universal Satellite Automatic Location System), also
known as DiSEqC 1.3, calculates the positions of all available
satellites from your location. Compared to DiSEqC 1.2, it is
no longer required to manually search and store every satellite
position. Just pointing to a known satellite position is enough.
This position will act as a central point. The USALS will then
calculate positions of visible satellites.
To use the USALS protocol, select the Installation > USALS
Setting menu. You should see
a screen like the left figure. At
first you have to set the Motorized DiSEqC 1.3 option to Enable.
To get every satellite position calculated, take the following
steps:
1. Choose your desired satellite at the Satellite Name option.
2. Enter your location to the My Longitude option and the
My Latitude option with the V− , V+ and numeric buttons.
3.1 Searching for broadcasting services
19
3. Enter the position of your selected satellite to the Satellite
Angle option if it is not correct.
4. Select the Goto the position option, then the antenna will
turn toward your selected satellite as calculating its position.
5. If the receiving quality, which is displayed at the bottom
right of the screen, is not good, then tune the antenna
finely with the Move option. The changed position is
automatically saved. At this time you had better check
the receiving quality of every transponder and choose
the best one at the Transponder (or Frequency) option.
It will be helpful to your fine tuning.

1. Choose your desired satellite at the Satellite Name option.
2. Set the Search Mode option to Auto.
3. If you set the Network Search option to On, the digital
receiver will check up the up-to-date channel information while searching services, but it takes a rather longer
time.
With the Auto mode, the digital receiver tries to search every
service, relying on the transponder data which is stored at the
time of manufacture. It thus may happen to fail to search all actually available services since services are more often than not
launched, discontinued, or removed into another transponder.
To avoid such missing, you had better set the Search Mode
item to Blind. With the Blind mode, the digital receiver tries
to search every service, scrutinizing every transponder with
every possible combination of transponder elements. It thus
may require many minutes or even many hours.
It is possible to search several satellites one after another for
services. Set the Sat Mode item to Multi, then the Satellite
Name item becomes disabled and the Satellite List item be
comes enabled. Pressing the OK button at the Satellite List
item pops up the list of satellites. Select satellites you want
to search and exit with the EXIT button.
Searching every service of a transponder
To search every service of a transponder, take the following
steps:
1. Choose your desired satellite at the Satellite Name option.
2. Set the Search Mode option to Manual, and then press
the OK button to diaply additional options.
3. Choose your desired transponder at the Frequency option or enter it with the numeric buttons.
