Tv prefix mts. Receivers mts tv

In our country, there are several providers providing satellite television services. MTS has recently entered a sought-after market niche. Due to the attractive conditions for the purchase and installation of equipment, the company manages to connect new subscribers every day in the regions included in the satellite coverage area.

The equipment is offered by the operator himself, it is possible to purchase it in specialized stores. New subscribers need to install a satellite dish with a converter, as well as connect and configure the MTS set-top box.

Before being puzzled by the issues of connecting satellite TV from MTS, you need to make sure that the place of residence is included in the coverage area of ​​​​the provider's satellites. You can use the map, where different shades of red indicate signal levels. Under the appropriate level of coverage, an antenna of a certain diameter should be selected according to the principle: low level (light red color on the map) - larger dish diameter.

Another important technical aspect to consider is choosing a place to install a satellite dish so that the digital signal is not obstructed on its way to the receiving antenna. It also determines the direction in which the antenna must be turned in order to directly "see" the satellite signals.

As for the choice of equipment for satellite TV, in addition to an antenna of a suitable diameter with a converter, depending on the TV receiver, the subscriber needs to purchase the appropriate device.

1. CAM module- this option can only be used for some modern TVs equipped with a DVB-S tuner.
2. Interactive set-top box, which operates in full range of options for viewing interactive television in the coverage area with 3G MTS signals.
3. Universal equipment - MTS satellite set-top box. This linear HD equipment is compatible with most TVs used by Russians.

Overview of applications for setting up a satellite dish

Master tuners of satellite TV equipment use to correct installation Antennas are a special device that costs a lot of money. If you have the ability and desire to install and configure the dish on your own, you can use:

• mobile application, which, by means of GPS and a camera, determines and indicates the direction to the satellite relative to the intended installation site;
• GPS mode - programs, which calculates according to a certain algorithm the angles of rotation of the plate and the converter;
• setup wizard on the map on the site ru.

For help in correct setting several satellite dishes have been created special applications. Some of them are distributed free of charge through the official app stores, some require a certain payment. The most commonly used GPS programs are:

• SatFinder, Satellite Director is free to install and use;

• Multifeed, Dishpointer Pro - paid mobile software.

DishPointer Pro v 2.2.2 , Android

Each program has its own advantages and disadvantages, but they cope with the main task - assistance in choosing the direction of the antenna to the satellite. Instructions for finding the location of the satellite and turning the dish to it in detail may vary.

MTS on its official website in the "Satellite TV" tab offered the opportunity to calculate the necessary map settings. The subscriber is required to go to the "Settings" menu item and enter the location address. The system will display the calculated indicators on the screen and on the map with a beam will show the direction to the satellite relative to the specified address.

Antenna, receiver and TV set communication

The next step after installing the antenna is the communication of devices with each other through cables. The cable coming from the satellite dish is connected to the receiver's antenna jack. To connect the MTS set-top box to a TV, an HDMI cable is most often used: most modern TVs are equipped with an appropriate input. If there is no HDMI output on the TV, then as an alternative, depending on the availability of connectors, you can use:

• TV SCART output and corresponding SCART-RC cable;

• RCA outputs and RCA cable (tulips);

• 75 ohm coaxial TV cable.

For example, to connect the set-top box s2 3900 offered by MTS to a Samsung TV, you can use an HDMI or RCA cable. This set-top box is equipped with the appropriate sockets. Which cable to use depends on the TV model.

If the subscriber has two TVs, and there is no technical possibility of installing an additional satellite dish, you can use the following communication options for TV receivers with one antenna:

• • by using a cable signal splitter (crab, splitter);

• by installing a converter with two outputs on a plate;
• through a multiswitch that transmits a signal to one or more receivers.

Important! All options assume a receiver for each TV.

In the first connection option, you will need to purchase digital signal cable divider with one input and two outputs with a frequency bandwidth of 5-2400 mHz, as well as a connection method corresponding to the cable thickness: screw clamp, thread, coaxial socket, by soldering.

Advice! When choosing a splitter, you should pay attention to the signal attenuation index: the lower it is, the better.

You should also take a responsible approach to determining the location of the tee, trying to minimize the distance from the place of division of the cable signal to the TVs in order to avoid signal attenuation.

If you choose the second option, you need to purchase converter equipped with 2 outputs(there are more complex modifications with 4 and 8 outputs) and the required number of meters of cable. Installation with this method is more complicated: two cables are brought into the room from the antenna. Also, this option is more expensive, but eliminates the effect of signal attenuation.

In the third case, connections must be purchased multiswitch. This is a device that allows you to receive a signal from one or more satellites and transmit to several independent set-top boxes. The method is relevant for large country houses and mini-hotels to connect more than 8 TVs.

Set-top box activation and channel tuning

After physically connecting the satellite equipment to the TV, you need to complete the service activation process. It is assumed that the MTS smart or SIM card is inserted into the STB slot. Upon activation, the provider associates the contract of a particular subscriber with the ID - the number of his equipment, and the key for decrypting the encrypted channels is sent to the card. After activation, the set-top box decodes the specified package of channels provided for under the contract for a certain period of time, and subsequently controls the payment.

Several activation options are provided: through the dealer network (the equipment was purchased from the dealer), calling the MTS contact service, sending SMS messages from any operator number to 9909 indicating the card number and set-top box ID.

When you first turn on the activated satellite equipment, you need to configure the MTS TV set-top box. After turning on the set-top box, you should wait for some time until the system boots up and reception of signals is established. Next, you need to turn on the TV and translate it to AV or HDMI reception mode(depending on the cable connection used between receiver and receiver).

The system will prompt the "Initial installation" menu. Here you need to select the image settings, menu language, and if necessary, you can reconfigure other default settings. To search for channels, you need to use the remote control of the set-top box or the control buttons of the MTS set-top box without a remote control to move to the “Start Search” menu item and initiate its execution (press the corresponding button on the remote control or panel of the set-top box). In the process of searching a list of found channels is formed. In the list generated by the system, the user can configure the channels so that they follow in the sequence he needs. For this, the appropriate functionality of the TV set-top box (“Program Editor”) and the remote control are used.

The "Settings" menu has a "Basic Settings" function, with which you can set the clock and time zones, as well as set the time to turn off the set-top box. There is another functionality here, regarding the choice of the type and order of sorting channels, and so on.

Installation, activation and configuration of satellite equipment is a laborious task and requires certain knowledge and skills, in case of insufficiency of which it is better to resort to the help of specialists.

MTS provides not only mobile communication, but also home internet with interactive satellite TV. When using the latter, the installation of special equipment is required, which will allow access to TV broadcasts. Users who decide to use the services of the presented operator and connect TV should know how to properly connect and configure the MTS DS 701 set-top box.

The receiver in question is necessary to provide an acceptable signal and comfortable viewing of entertainment resources. Today, when connecting satellite TV, the operator issues the Castpal model. Below we will study in detail the issue of connecting and configuring parameters.

Let the operator company try to promote exactly interactive television, but the model in question belongs to the linear type of set-top boxes. That is, the equipment does not need a SIM card. The main advantage that users have identified is a larger coverage area than a hybrid TV can boast, which allows you to view online services.

In other words, increased coverage becomes a decisive factor for many users. After all, the tariffs offered with the prefix differ in low prices, and a linear connection will provide the opportunity to install satellite TV in any country house. For the city, subscribers prefer to choose interactive (hybrid) television.

The cost depends on the configuration. For example, today the operator offers the following options:

• 3400 rubles for a prefix without an antenna.
• 3990 rubles with an antenna, the size of which is 0.6 m.
• 4490 r with 0.9 m antenna.

How to set up an MTS prefix model DS701 - step by step instructions

Setting up the MTS DS701 set-top box is not difficult. Any inexperienced user can cope with this procedure, simply by following the instructions:

1. Connect the set-top box to the TV and the network.
2. Next, start the telly and the receiver itself.
3. The system will show a menu where you have to set the time and other items.
4. Then select " Automatic search channels."
5. When the system copes with the search for available channels, restart the receiver and TV set.

How to connect an MTS SIM card in a set-top box model DS701

Satellite TV set-top box MTS model DS701 is linear, which excludes the installation of a SIM card. Therefore, the connection of the presented equipment will not cause you problems. Connect it to the network and start. The lack of a SIM makes it impossible to use interactive features. But, on the other hand, your coverage area is larger, due to which the picture quality is better.

Common Mistakes

Sometimes users run into problems. It is not necessary to take the equipment for repair or buy a new receiver if error 8888 appears on the screen. It indicates a failed connection or incorrect software operation. It is necessary to check how well and correctly the cables are connected.

The second solution to the problem is to reset the parameters to the factory version. The "No channel" error is also common, which may occur due to incorrectly specified frequencies when the user independently searched for and tuned channels. Other reasons are related to non-payment subscription payment or lack of the required package.

Today we will tell you about the features of television from the MTS company: why do you need a prefix, how much does it cost, and is it necessary to buy it from the operator itself.

What is an attachment for?

A feature of television from many operators is that viewing requires a set-top box. Of course, you can find offers from some providers that do not require additional equipment, in which case either an application or an Internet portal is used for access.

If we talk about TV from MTS, then you do not need an Internet connection to watch it. The user can choose one of two options on how to use the service.

The first one is through a plugin. To do this, a cable will be brought into the apartment, which will ensure the reception of a digital signal. The set-top box itself is connected to the TV.

The second option is to use the CAM module. However, this is only available if your TV is equipped with the appropriate slot. One of the advantages of the module is that you use a familiar TV remote control to control it. The signal coming to the TV through the cable is decoded precisely with the help of the installed module.

But when using a set-top box, a prerequisite is the use of a separate remote control that comes with the kit. Note that in modern models of set-top boxes, the remote control is available for simultaneous use of both the remote control for the set-top box and for the TV. You will not need to use the TV remote to turn on the TV, but only from the set-top box.

How much is

The cost of the set-top box depends on the model that you will use. A new current model costs about three thousand rubles, but it can be rented.

The cost of rent depends on which services you plan to use from the operator. So, if only TV, then you will pay 110 rubles per month for renting a set-top box, but if you also connect the Internet, then the rent will be only ten rubles.

But if you are planning to use cellular communication, then when connecting to “All MTS”, the choice of interactive TV will also be available. Note that in this case you will also need a prefix, but of a different type.

You can use the equipment on a rental basis, which is already included in the cost of the convergent tariff, or purchase it for the full price - 6.5 thousand rubles. The operator indicates that the rent will cost 140 rubles per month. However, if you refuse it, and purchase a set-top box for the full price, then the cost of the tariff will not change.

Which option to choose depends on a number of factors. A feature of MTS is that the operator offers exactly the lease on the set-top box. So, many operators either offer to buy equipment, or use installments for a certain period of time.

Therefore, at MTS you can at any time refuse the service and return the rented equipment. When paying by installments, the set-top box is not returned, but remains with the subscriber, who, upon disconnection, pays the unpaid part of the cost.

Without prefix

Many MTS subscribers, like those who are just planning to use TV from the company, ask if it is possible to use the service without a set-top box? This, for example, is relevant for owners of modern TV models with Smart TV support.

You can use it, but it will not be digital or interactive TV, but mobile. To do this, you need to use the appropriate application installed on your device.

The cost of such television for a full package of channels will be three hundred rubles a month. For registration in the application, the MTS mobile number will be used, from the balance of which the fee will be charged. In this case, you will not be able to use the offer from the “All MTS” package, since these are two separate services.

Cheap with current promotion. Everything you need is included. Receiver s9-3900.

Minuses

It is more difficult to install than the well-known three-color competitor. Expensive tariff offered by the operator. The receiver does not have a Pan&Scan mode. There is no way to watch free channels from the same satellite, only what the provider has provided.

Review

I specially took kit No. 190, since it offers the s9-3900 receiver - one of the two most modern for MTS. Yes, it turns on longer (about 20-30 seconds from pressing the button to the start of viewing), I read that there are a lot of glitches, although, to be honest, in fact, I have not encountered any problems yet. But on this receiver, all the channels offered by MTS are available (except for UHD, although this may be a weak signal), including Disney, without which I would not buy a satellite at all. The package offered in the kit has a tariff and includes channels from three packages: basic, children's and adult. In the contact center they told me that you can change the tariff to just "basic" only by writing an application in the MTS salon. And given that the "adult" package is simply ridiculous (someone really pays extra on general tariffs), you will have to take a walk and change the tariff. The installation is not very complicated - I calculated on the MTS website (in advance) which side the dish would be on, hung it outside the window, but then I needed the help of my family - I orientated along the line built by the application in the smartphone to the satellite, but got "0". Therefore, my family had to tell me, and I turned and tilted the antenna. Tricolors are much easier to catch, I must say. I replaced the complete converter with a multiport one, extended the second cable to the kitchen, installed a cheap receiver and got free channels in the kitchen :) There are about 20 unique ones in total, about 40, taking into account the "hourly" and HD versions. It's a pity, but there is no First, Russia and NTV for free, but there is TNT, Friday, 2x2, Zvezda, etc. So by paying extra you can get some kind of multiroom without an additional subscription fee.
