Common Interface
To receive scrambled DTV signals you will need a CA module and a
smart card provided by the service provider.
Although CA module types may vary depending on the
manufacturer, each one of the CA modules supports a certain kind
of encryption system. Your plasma television supports CA modules
which are made to work with the DVB standard. Contact a service
provider for the right type of CA module.
Please note that a smart card may only be valid for a single service
provider and due to this, a specific range of channels.
Note
• CA modules and smart cards are neither supplied nor optional
accessories from Pioneer.
After inserting a card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not
remove it from the terminal unless asked to do so. For instance,
your card has to be in the slot when your service provider wants to
download new information to the smart card.
Installing a CA module and smart card
Common Interface slot is located at the rear of the plasma
television.
1 Hold and push the tab of the slot cover on the rear of the
plasma television leftward (a), and remove the cover while

2 Insert the specified CA module containing a smart card into
the Common Interface slot as far as it will go.
