2 General  
The SkyFunk 3 system serves to transmit video and stereo audio signals by wireless  
means. To achieve this, the video/audio signal from a source (e.g. a satellite receiver or  
video recorder) is transmitted by the SkyFunk transmitter, which is located, for example, in  
your living room, to the SkyFunk receiver, which might be located in your study or bedroom.  
The receiver converts the signals back to normal video/audio signals, which can be display-  
ed on a television screen, using a Scart connection. If your television set is not equipped  
with a Scart socket, you can use an external modulator, which is available through specia-  
list retailers. This will allow you to receive the signal via the antenna input socket of your  
television set.  
In the same manner, control signals of the existing remote control at the receiving end (e.g.  
the study) are transmitted to the signal source, thus allowing you to operate remotely the  
appliance connected at the signal source (i.e. a satellite receiver or video recorder located in  
the living room).  
Four channels are available for the transmission of audio and video signals. These can be  
selected by means of DIP switches located on the SkyFunk 3 units.  
Please note that the transmitter and receiver units must be operated on  
the same channel (channels 1-4).

Connect the mini DIN connector (green) of the adapter cable supplied, carring the  
inscription Transmitter to the SkyFunk 3 Transmitter.  
The IR-extension should be placed in such a way that there is a line of sight to the IR  
window (usually located on the display of a unit) of the video source. This is essential  
to ensure transmission of the remote control command signals.

The SkyFunk receiver should be positioned in such a way that the red IR window has  
an unobstructed line of sight to the remote control unit. This is essential to ensure the  
remote control command signals are transmitted.

When you have made the connection described above, connect the mains power  
adapter supplied with the socket DC 9V of the SkyFunk 3 receiver.  
Connect the Scart connector of the adapter cable labelled receiver with the Scart  
socket of your television set. Youi can now receive and view the signals received via  
the SkyFunk receiver on the programme slot AV.

4 Setting up the units  
4.1 General  
Please note the following when setting up the units:  
>
>
If possible, the units should be positioned 1-2 metres above the ground/floor  
To avoid the units being damaged in a fall to the floor, they should always be positio-  
ned on a level surface.  
>
>
There should preferably be as few obstructions (e.g. electrical appliances) as possible  
located between the transmitter and receiver units.  
Make certain that both units (transmitter and receiver) are set to the same channel  
(DIP switch on the rear panel of the units.  
4.2 Transmitter  
When you have made the connections as described in chapter 3, position the transmitter unit  
close to the satellite receiver or video recorder from which you wish to transmit the signal,  
and position it so that the IR extension has a direct line of sight to the IR window of the sig-  
nal source.  
4.3 Receiver  
When you have made the connections as described in chapter 3, position the receiver close  
to the television set, and position it so that there is a direct line of sight from the position from  
which you wish to operate the signal source to the red IR window.  
4.4 Positioning the units  
In order to achieve an optimum transmitting and receiving quality, both units are equipped  
with directional antennae. To optimise the transmission quality, it may be necessary to alter  
the position of the units, specifically in relation to each other.  
Should reception still not be satisfactory, please check whether the reception is better on an  
alternative channel.

5 Operation  
When you have worked through all the points, your SkyFunk 3 is ready for operation.  
>
Switch on both units by means of the mains power switches.  
5.1 Setting the transmitter and receiver channels  
To change the transmitter resp. receiver channel, select the desired channel on both units  
(transmitter and receiver). The switches for channel selection are located on the rear  
panel of the units. To select, e.g., channel 1,use an object with a small tip (ball-point pen,  
small screwdriver, etc.) to move the switch for channel 1 to the “On” position, as shown in  
the diagram. The other switches should be left in the “Off” position. Use the same procedure  
to select any other channel.  
Please ensure that the transmitter and receiver units must always be set to the same chan-  
nel, i.e. the same switch position.

5.2 Automatic channel changes  
You have the facility of receiving several different signals with a single receiver unit (maxi-  
mum of 4 channels).When using this option, the signal of each transmitter will be displayed  
for approx. 5 seconds. The receiver will then automatically go on to the next receiver channel  
selected, and will display its signal for approx. 5 seconds. This procedure will be repeated  
continuously.  
To select the automatic channel changing option, proceed as follows:  
>
>
As described in point 5.1, select a different transmission channel on each of the trans-  
mitter units.  
On the receiver unit, set all the channel selector switches to “On”, for those channels  
on which there will be signal transmissions. All the selected channels will now be dis-  
played automatically, one after the other.

ly  
Interference on the channel selected. Reme-  
dy: select different transmission channel.  
Proximity to a microwave oven that is in  
operation, causing interference.  
Distance between transmitter and receiver  
too great.

Faulty cable connection  
No line of sight between IR remote control  
and receiver, resp. between IR transmitter  
and signal source.
