Description

ALTECH DHR4901 Vast Receiver

Altech UEC introduces the VAST™ certified DHR 4901 PVR Hybrid, 4K ready, PVR with 1.5TB of hard disk drive capacity as the big brother to the already market-leading DSD4921 satellite set-top box.

The DHR 4901 PVR is packed with features including 240v AC to 12v DC power, an RF remote control, sixteen satellites, and four Terrestrial tuners allowing you to watch or record what you want wherever you are in Australia. * Note – this Hybrid feature requires a satellite connection to the VAST™ Service and a registered VAST™ smart card for the terrestrial feature to work.

The setup wizard and navigation are easy to use, intuitive, and remarkably similar to the Altech UEC 4921 operation. The remote control supports radio frequency communication with the DHR 4901 PVR allowing control of the features without a direct line of sight with the unit or even if stored in a ventilated cupboard.

The fully integrated EPG (programs guide) includes a live Picture in Picture view allowing you to stay connected to your channel whilst simultaneously setting recordings or surfing the other available programs.

The inclusion of the front panel TFT display allows access to additional information being available to the user whilst viewing or the time and date when in standby mode. All of these fantastic features are packed in into a sleek and elegant low-profile housing that will enhance any home or traveler’s entertainment needs.

As with all Altech UEC products the DSD 4901 PVR is backed and supported by NAS Australia’s Service Center of Excellence and National first line support/dealer network.

VAST Registration

Permanent or Traveller Registration?

 

OVERVIEW:

The ALTECH DSD 4901 Vast Receiver can be registered as a permanent or traveler registration. Permanent registration is for households with a fixed installation of the decoder. A traveler registration covers people who as part of their traveling are in areas of Australia not covered by normal terrestrial television.

PERMANENT REGISTRATION:

The location of a permanent installation must be assessed to determine if the household has the ability to receive normal terrestrial television. This is a broadcast license condition for VAST so that the VAST service does not encroach on the license area of existing terrestrial commercial broadcasters.
This assessment is performed by the Government mySwitch website.

Follow the “Satellite Decoder Online Registration” link on the home page of www.MySatTV.com.au
Enter the residential address of the decoder location and press “Get Info”
This location is then assessed for the ability to receive signals from one or more local/regional terrestrial television transmitters. This assessment is indicated by the area under “Coverage summary” and on the regional map. The Red pin indicates the location of the residence. For addresses difficult to locate automatically the Red pin may be dragged across the map to indicate the actual location of the residence. This will also trigger the assessment process to indicate the signals in the new location.
If the address is assessed as being unsuitable for terrestrial reception you may continue the process to apply for VAST by following the link under the “Satellite Summary (VAST) section.

Steps

Follow the “Satellite Decoder Online Registration” link to the mySwitch website
Enter your residential address and press “Get Info”
Read information about terrestrial television signal suitability.
If a suitable terrestrial signal cannot be received go to the section “Satellite Summary (VAST)” and press the “Find Out More” button.
Read information regarding VAST and then press the “More information” button.
Read the information supplied and then proceed to the “Applying for VAST” section. Select the correct option and then press Apply.
Read the confirmation information and then press Apply.
A new web page will open on the MySatTV website. This is the registration page. Fill in all the required information and press “Submit Application”.
Wait for a response from VAST. Depending on the location and type of registration your decoder may have been activated within a couple of minutes.
Some applications will require further processing by the VAST Call Centre, this may take up to 2 business days.

TRAVELLER REGISTRATION:

The traveler registration provides access to the VAST service through a Temporary Reception Certificate.

KEY INFORMATION

A Traveller’s Registration is based on a Temporary Registration Certificate. This certificate lasts for 6 months, and then the Commercial television services will be removed.
The services accessible are determined by the State where you are traveling.
As you move from State to State you must advise the VAST Call Centre by phone, email or online inquiry form what services you require.
You may renew the temporary certificate within one month of expiration or any time after expiration. The renewal can be performed online (preferred option), or by calling the VAST Call Centre.

Follow the link to “Traveller’s Registration” on the MySatTV
Enter the required owners and decoder details.
Select and confirm the statements in the Declaration section and press “Submit Application”.
Wait for a response from VAST. Depending on the location and type of registration your decoder may have been activated within a couple of minutes.

What channels are available on VAST?

Southern Cross Media and Imparja are broadcasting the full range of digital commercial television channels in standard definition (with programming from the 7, 9, and 10 networks) and the high definition channels One HD, 7mate, and GEM.

VAST also provides all the standard and high definition channels from ABC and SBS.

The local news content from regional broadcasters is also available on dedicated local news channels exclusive to VAST.

What Equipment do I need?

To access VAST you will need to register your details including your address, reception location, and smart card number to enable access.
