I. Hardware Installation
A) Unplug the power cord of your old analog receiver prior to
removing the satellite wiring. This step will avoid any possible
damage caused to the receiver, the analog module, and personal
safety.
B) Mark or label the satellite wiring prior to disconnection
from your old unit. Generally, the satellite wiring is organized
in three separate sections: the Polarizer, the Actuator, and
the LNB. Before disconnecting them, be familiar with the specific
wires and what function they perform on your existing analog
receiver, by how they are connected to it. (Figs 1.1 & 1.2)

C) Remove all audio & video connections.
Prior to following the next step in the hardware installation,
it is important to be grounded to avoid possible damage to the
VideoCipher module. This descrambler module should be placed
into the new 4dtv receiver as soon as possible after removal
from the old analog receiver. Analog VideoCipher module’s
life can be ended from extended periods of time (over 30 minutes)
without being connected to your powered 4DTV receiver.
D) Remove the VideoCipher module from the old receiver. Unscrew
the module cover and carefully pull out the ejector arms, if
there are any, to eject the module.
E) Remove module cover on the new 4dtv receiver and pull out
the ejector arms. Slide VideoCipher module into DSR922 receiver
and push in ejector arms to latch the module in to place. Fasten
module cover. (Fig 1.3)

Connect output video cables. Additionally, HDTV
Signals must use the HDD-200 decoder which connects
to the MMAP.

With the switch on the back panel, Select channel 3 or
4, whichever you have assigned to receive the satellite
signal on your television. (Fig 1.10) |

J) Connect the provided UHF remote antenna. This enables
the remote to function while not being directly aimed
at the receiver. (Fig 1.11) |

K) Plug in the power cord of the 4dtv receiver to a surge protected
power outlet.
Congratulations, you have now connected your
new DSR922 receiver and are ready to begin programming it.
