PREFACE

NTRODUCTION
The EchoStar User Interface is a family of user interfaces which are dedicated for a specific
range of satellite receivers. Every satellite receiver is equipped with different options. Some
options are related to the EchoStar User Interface, others are related to physical options as
Common Interface slots, Embedded reader, display or not, etc.
Please note that this user manual contains the information for the most comprehensive
model. Sometimes you find that an option is not available on your receiver which means that
you can ignore the related descriptions and instructions. Please refer to the specifications of
your receiver to find the available options that are present in your model.

WARRANTY
If your receiver has conditional access capabilities:
For pay-services, please only use Common Interface (CI) modules and the related Smartcard
which are approved by the service provider of the encrypted program you want to receive.
Only this will enable the receiver to work properly.
Anomalies can occur when an unapproved CI-module and/or Smartcard is used. EchoStar
can not and will not accept any responsibility for the performance of such CI-modules and/or
smartcards. If you use an unapproved CI-module and/or Smartcard, EchoStar is no longer
able to provide any assistance or support. Use of an unapproved CI-module and/or
Smartcard will void any warranty claim. If you have any doubt which CI-modules are
approved, please ask your service provider for assistance.
