Setup
Location tips
Select a stable, level base.
Make sure that the environment is clean and free from
dust.
Avoid placing the unit close to sources of heat or in
direct sunlight.
Do not place any heavy objects on the Decoder-
Station 7 or the cables.
The receiver for signals from the remote control is located
at the front of the unit. You should therefore set up the unit
so that you can see it from your sitting position.
You will need two micro-type or AAA batteries with 1.5
Volt (included in the product contents) in order to operate
the remote control.
Inserting batteries
Gently press down the arrow on the battery compart-
ment cover on the back of the remote control. Push the
cover down and out.
If applicable, remove any old batteries (please observe
the disposal notes on page 20).
Insert the batteries in the battery compartment as
shown in the figure.
Place the cover back on the compartment and push it
closed.
Functionality
The remote control relays the control signals by means of
infrared light. For this, you will have to point the remote
control at the DecoderStation 7. The infrared receiver is
located on the front side. Make sure that the infrared light
is not obstructed by objects.

Connecting
Danger
Danger of injury/damage!
Arrange the cables so that they do not pose a
trip hazard.
Antennas
Danger
Risk associated with lightning strike!
If you are using outdoor or roof antennas, be
absolutely sure that the antenna has lightning
protection.
FM antenna
Connect the antenna for receiving FM stations to the jack
5 “FM”. This may be a roof/outside antenna, but also a
cable television connection. You will need a coaxial con-
nector cable for this.
If an antenna connection is not available at your setup
location, you can use the enclosed throw-out aerial
e.
Push the aerial plug into the jack 5 “FM” and adjust the
position of the throw-out aerial for best reception. Then
fix the aerial in place.
AM antenna
The enclosed antenna
d receives AM stations. You can
set up this antenna to be free standing or screw it onto a
(cabinet) wall.
Connect the connector cable of the antenna with the
jacks 6AM” on the back of the DecoderStation 7. Press
down the lever on each of the connector terminals and
insert the end of the cable in the opening above it. Re-
leasing the lever locks the cable in place.
Inputs for source devices
The DecoderStation 7 offers you three HDMI inputs for
digital audio/video signals (HDMI 1, 2 and 3), three
analogue audio inputs (AUX 1, 2 and 3), one optical and
two coaxial digital audio inputs.
HDMI 1, 2 and 3
You can connect a source device with a digital video and
audio signal to the jacks 18 (e.g. PC, Blu-ray player or
video game system). You will need a HDMI cable for this.
If a unit just emits video via HDMI, you can assign one of
the DecoderStation 7 audio inputs to the HDMI input this
device is connected to and get audio in that way.

OPTICAL
You can connect the optical digital sound output of a
source device to the jack 8. You will need an optical
cable with a TOSLINK plug for this. Your source requires
either an optical 3.5 mm jack or a TOSLINK jack, too.
Coaxial 1 and Coaxial 2
You can connect the coaxial digital audio outputs of up to
two source devices to the jacks 9. You will need a coaxial
cable with RCA plugs for this.
AUX 1, 2 and 3
You can connect source devices with analogue audio
signals to the jacks 11 and 12. The jack 11 (AUX 1) is a
3.5-mm jack for connecting e.g. a MP3 player. The jacks
12 (AUX 2 and 3) are RCA jacks for connecting e.g. a
cassette or audio tape player.
If you want to connect a record player, which does not
have a line output, use PhonoStation 1 for correct pre-
amplification.
Outputs
Television/projector
Connect your television set or your projector to the
“HDMI OUT” jack 17. You will need a HDMI cable for
this.
Audio outputs
Connect your high power amplifier, multi-channel active
subwoofer or active speaker to the RCA jacks 15. You will
need three stereo RCA cables for this:
FRONT LEFT/RIGHT Front left/right channels
CENTER Mid-channel
SUB Subwoofer channel
SURR LEFT/RIGHT Rear left/right channels
In 7.1 operation, the two additional rear channels are
connected to the jacks 14 “RC/Pre Out” (see next para-
graph).

RC/Pre Out
You can configure the function of the analogue output 14
“RC/Pre Out” in the “System Setup” menu. (see “5.1/7.1
on page 15):
5.1 operation Converts (via downmix) the 5.1 audio
signal on two stereo channels (2.0) in
order to, for example, project sound into a
second room.
7.1 operation Output of the additional rear channels
(REAR).
You can connect your power amplifier or multi-channel
active subwoofer, active speaker or a RF audio transmis-
sion system to these jacks. You will need a stereo RCA
cable to do so.
Headphones

phone plug to the “HEADPHONES jack 13.
The outputs to the power amplifiers (14and 15) are
automatically deactivated when connecting headphones.
They can, however, be reactivated by pushing button 28
on the remote control. This makes it possible to oper-
ate the DecoderStation 7 with the active speakers even
when headphones are inserted (e.g. while using wireless
headphones with transmitter permanently connected).
Danger
Danger of injury/damage!
Lower the volume before you pull out the head-
phone plug again; otherwise the speakers may
emit unexpected high sound pressure. This could injure
your hearing or damage the device.
Connecting to a power supply
Make sure that your power amplifier, multi-channel ac-
tive subwoofer or the active speakers are turned off.
Connect the small mains adapter c plug to the jack 19
12V”.

channels are only available in 7.1 operation.) Possible
values: each from –20 dB (decrease) to +6 dB (increase).
The “Reset” menu item resets all frequency ranges for the
selected channel to zero (neutral).
Note: The equalizer is inactive with some high-definition
formats.
Speaker Levels menu
Here you can adjust the relative volume from “10” (de-
crease) to “+10” (increase) for each speaker.
It is recommended to use our sound level meter to opti-
mally adjust the sound level.
Source Levels menu
You can adjust the relative volume from “10” (decrease)
to “+10” (increase) for each audio source here.
Audio Mapping menu
Here you can assign an audio input to each of the three
HDMI inputs.
Example: If you would like to connect a PC without HDMI
output: With a DVI to HDMI adapter, you transmit the
video signal while the audio signal is present at one of
the analogue inputs (Aux) via an RCA cable.
Speaker Setup” menu
Phase Sub
This allows you to activate and deactivate the phase shift
(180°) for the subwoofer. Select the setting, with which
the subwoofer produces the loudest and clearest sound.
Lip Sync
Digital image processing in the television set requires
some time. In order to keep the image and sound syn-
chronous, delay the sound by a few milliseconds. Here,
you can adjust the audio delay from 0 to 100 ms for
each HDMI and other inputs in order to keep the sound
synchronous.
Speaker Size
Here you can set the size of the speakers in use for opti-
mally driving them. Five configurations are available:
SSSS1 All speakers are small, subwoofer present.
LSSS1 Large front speakers, small center and rear
speakers, subwoofer present.
LSSS0 Large front speakers, small center and rear
speakers, no subwoofer.
L0SS0 Large front speakers, no center speaker, small
rear speakers, no subwoofer.
LLLL1 All speakers large, subwoofer present.
The letters represent the speakers: Front left/right, center,
surround, rear center (only in 7.1 operation). S (small)
stands for small and L (large) for large speakers, 0 is also
possible for the center speaker if none is present. The last
number stands for the subwoofer (1 = present, 0 = not
present).
If you connect the DecoderStation to a multichannel ac-
tive subwoofer, select the setting SSSS1.
• DecoderStation 7 15
Crossover frequency
With the crossover frequency, you define the frequency,
up to which the subwoofer should be active. Possible
values: 80 to 250 Hz in eight steps.
You can also set the edge steepness: This is the level,
which is still present at the subwoofer above the crossover
frequency. Possible values: –24 dB and –36 dB.
Enter –24 dB for normal speakers. For satellite speakers
with bassreflex openings, the acoustic efficiency declines
more sharply — so select -36 dB for optimal actuation of
the subwoofer.
You can find information on the recommended crossover
frequency in the technical data of the satellite speakers in
our webshop.
Distance
The surround sound effect may be corrupted if the speak-
ers are positioned at different distances to the listening
position. To compensate for these differences in run time,
you can set slight signal delays for all channels. Measure
the difference from the listening position to the speakers
and enter these values in the menu. The system calculates
the required delays on this basis.
System Setup” menu
HDMI
CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)
If this function has been activated (ON), CEC-compatible
devices are controlled with a control command issued via
the HDMI connection. For example, the DecoderStation 7
and the connected devices are automatically activated
and deactivated via the remote control of the TV set.
ARC (Audio Return Channel)
This option offers receiving audio from the TV via the
HDMI cable (for TV sets that support this function).
Audio from television sets runs to the DecoderStation 7
through the HDMI cable without having to connect
another cable. If the ARC function is activated, the
“COAXIAL 1” input (9) is no longer available.
Possible settings: OFF, ON.
Important!
Please note that many television sets only have
one HDMI input that supports the ARC function.
To use ARC you must also activate CEC.
Note: If the CEC function is activated, standby power
consumption increases.
Automatic deactivation
After a certain time of inactivity, the device automatically
switches to standby after a preset time. Possible values:
60 min. (default), 30 min., never.
Power On Level
Here you can set the volume of your device when it is
activated:
last: The volume that was set at deactivating.
fixed: Fixed volume from -40 dB (low) to +10 dB (very
loud).
5.1/7.1
With this, you can switch between 5.1 and 7.1 operation
and also set the function of the analogue output 14 “RC/
PRE OUT” (see page 10), which you can connect a stereo
amplifier, active speaker or radio transmission system.
This makes it possible to project sound into another room
or connect to the rear center speakers in 7.1 opera-
tion using RF audio transmission system (such as Teufel
Rear Station 4).
5.1 Converts (via downmix) the 5.1 audio
signal to a stereo channel (2.0) to project
sound into a second room.
7.1 7.1 Operation with output of the additional
rear channels.

Troubleshooting
The following advice should help you to solve problems. If this doesn’t work, please contact our hotline (see page 3).
Take note of the warranty instructions.
Problem Possible cause Solution
The DecoderStation 7 is not
working, the display panel
2 is not illuminated.
The device has no power. Check if the mains adapter plug is con-
nected to the jack 1912V” and to the
socket.
The device is not working,
but the display panel is
illuminated.
The volume has been set too low. Increase the volume with the control dial
or “VOL +” button 25.
Playback is noisy. Generally speaking, this is a very low-noise
system. The system with exceptional resolution
in the high-range area can expose the poor
quality of a signal source (e.g. from MP3 files)
mostly.
Ensure that the source is sending a clear
signal.
With stereo sources, for ex-
ample with radio playback
or a MP3 player, the rear
satellites and/or center are
inactive.
MP3s, radio and many television programmes
only have stereo sound.
Use the remote control to switch the
decoder to Pro-Logic mode or to one of
the DSP modes (5.1 stereo).
You are unable to switch
the surround configuration.
You are probably using a digital input. If a
Dolby or DTS signal is received on this input,
the DecoderStation 7 will automatically switch
to the correct surround configuration.
No Dolby-/DTS multi-chan-
nel sound is issued via the
connected digital source.
If digital sources are being played, the Decod-
erStation 7 automatically recognises the format
of the signal source. If the decoder fails to play
multi-channel sound, there is presumably no
multi-channel signal. Digital signal sources do
not always transmit multi-channel sound, but
may also emit regular stereo sound (2.0).
This is often the case, for example, when receiv-
ing a television signal with digital receivers.
Use the remote control to switch the
decoder to a Pro-Logic mode or to one of
the DSP modes (5.1 stereo).
The digitally connected
sound card is not transmit-
ting any multi-channel
sound when playing com-
puter games.
Many soundchips are capable of producing
surround sound in real-time and issuing it via
the sound card's analogue outputs. However,
digital encoding of the calculated multi-channel
sound is also necessary in a Dolby-AC3 stream
for transmission via a digital connection. Only
if the sound card is capable of real-time encod-
ing and transmission to the decoder, can direct
decoding (that is, splitting of the signal into its
analogue components) occur.
Presently, only very few game consoles such as
the Microsoft Xbox 360 or the Sony Playstation
3 and a limited number of sound cards with
Dolby® Digital Live support are capable of
performing real-time encoding.
Connect your 5.1 sound card to an ana-
logue jack of the DecoderStation 7.
