 DVB  Common Interface Plus standard (CI Plus)
Software update for CI Plus capable CA modules
Every now and then, there will be new system software for your CA 
module software. There are two software update types.
Recommended update:
Information on an available update is displayed. You can either run this 
or cancel the procedure. If you do not install the update, the informa-
tion will reappear in regular intervals until the update has been installed.
Forced update:
Information on an available update is displayed. The module does not 
decode any more until the update has been successfully implemented.
Troubleshooting (CA module)
The following information can help, if problems should occur when 
running a CA module:
Switch the TV set off to the standby mode. Remove the CA module from 
the TV set. Switch the TV set off completely. Wait a few seconds. Reinsert 
the CA module. Switch the TV set on again.
If errors continue to occur, make a note of the displayed two-digit error 
code (only for CI Plus capable CA modules). Contact your technical cus-
tomer service. You will find the service addresses on page 157.
Digital Recorder
CI Plus is an advanced development of the DVB Common Interface 
Standard. CI Plus slots are in principle downward compatible to the 
previous CI standard, i.e. CA modules and Smart Cards according to the 
past CI standard can continue to be used in CI Plus slots, as far as the 
programme provider permits this.
The regulations of the past standards (see page 27) likewise apply to CI 
Plus. There are however further additional regulations.
Programme providers, who use the CI Plus standard, can assign differ-
ent rights for their broadcast programmes. For instance, the programme 
provider can restrict or completely prevent recording or later watching of 
an encoded programme. If there are such regulations, these also apply 
to time-shifted watching of television programmes.
A screen message informs you of this fact, if you would like to record 
such a programme. Recording is carried out in such a case (an appropriate 
entry is displayed in the DR archive), later watching of the programme 
is however not possible at all or only for a limited period (e.g. 10 days). 
A possible time limitation of the playback will also appear in the cor-
responding entry in the DR archive.
The provider can also prohibit later decoding of a recorded encoded 
programme.
➠  All restrictions mentioned here are the responsibilities of the broad-
caster. The TV simply values the broadcaster set signalling as neutral.
Furthermore, the programme provider can prevent external copying 
of protected programmes, e.g. on a DVD recorder (also after possible 
decoding).
It could be necessary to enter the parental protection PIN of the CA mod-
ule when programming the data, if you want to record a CI Plus protected 
programme, which has been protected against viewing by minors. The 
secret number of the TV set is required for watching the programme later.
The appearance of the CA module menu of CI Plus (see operating in-
structions of the TV set) can deviate from the normal appearance of the 
TV menu.
