The TechniLine 40 HD is the latest addition to the TechniSat TechniLine family – a 40 inch (102 cm screen size) model based on a tried and proven successful concept: technical know-how and a high level of quality Made in Germany. The TechniLine 40 comes in a new design, with a slender eLED display, and a whole range of innovative technical features, providing exceptional specifications and a very good value-for-money ratio.
Integrated HDTV Multituner
The TechniLine 40 HD comes equipped with an integrated HDTV Multituner as a standard feature, allowing you to receive digital TV and radio programmes via digital satellite, cable, and terrestrial paths directly, without any need for additional equipment. In addition to providing reception of all free-to-air TV and radio programmes in SD and HD, the TechniLine 40 HD also features two CI+ interfaces, providing convenient reception of Pay-TV broadcasts as well (together with a suitable smartcard and subscription).
Digital video recorder functionality via USB (DVRready)
You can expand the capabilities of the TechniLine 40 HD to include an integrated digital video recorder functionality by using an external USB memory device. A USB stick or hard drive can be easily connected by using the USB 2.0 interface provided. This feature gives you the opportunity to record and play digital TV and radio programmes easily and conveniently. Furthermore, the TechniLine 40 HD supports time-shift television. Broadcasts in progress can be frozen at any point, and can then be viewed again from that point at a later time that suits you – naturally also in HD quality, of course.
Huge range of interfaces provided
The TechniLine 40 HD comes equipped with a comprehensive range of interfaces and connections and can be combined flexibly with various items of equipment such as DVD and Blu-ray players, PCs and game consoles. Two HDMI connections provide access for digital audio and video sources. A SCART connection as well as VGA and YUV provide the TechniLine 40 HD with analogue connections. With its full HD display and a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels the digital television set can also be used as an oversized monitor with a PC or with a netbox, an item of equipment found increasingly frequently in many living rooms. The new function „S/PDIF audio for video source“ allows you to provide sound for any video source by using the electrical digital audio input (cinch). Optical and electrical Dolby Digital connections, a headphone output as well as the easily accessible USB interface for multimedia data complete the wide range of connections provided by the TechniLine 40 HD.
TechniSat added value services
The new TechniLine 40 HD comes equipped with the tried and proven TechniSat added value services to ensure simple, convenient operation. For instance, AutoInstall guides the viewer through the most important settings for ?rst use, step by step.
Optimum child protection
The new TechniFamily function provides optimum child protection, allowing you to set up password-protected user pro?les for children. For each pro?le, custom access options and restrictions can be de?ned, e.g. for the selected programme, available multimedia and network functions, or daily television viewing times, and a maximum duration of use can be determined. Family arrangements can thus be mapped ?exibly and in detail via device settings.
Energy savings
In addition to their many technical features, the new models provide outstanding energy-saving functions. The TechniLine 40 HD requires only 0.6 Watts in standby mode and less than 100 Watts in normal operating mode.
Also available as a special BeNeLux Edition
TechniSat also offers a special BeNeLux Edition of the new TechniLine 40 HD. A Canal Digital module is part of the standard equipment of the TechniLine 40 HD BeNeLux Edition and can simply be inserted into the CI slot of the unit. Now one can receive the most important programme bouquets in Benelux such as Canal Digital, TéléSAT, or TV VLAANDEREN. To receive the above mentioned content, a smartcard and a subscription from a Pay-TV provider is required.
