ALIGNMENT (SATELLITE SEARCH)

The antenna is aligned automatically. After the UFS 740 has been switched on, the turntable automatically
moves to the last channel received and the associated satellite position (e.g. ARD/ASTRA).
This works because every satellite broadcasts its own identifi cation signal, which is automatically identifi ed
by the turntable.
The satellite search is started when you select a channel. If the turntable has not yet saved the position of
the satellite, you will see the following display when you select a channel (example):

If the vehicle is not on supports during the search process and people are moving
around inside it, there is a risk that movement of the vehicle will mean that the satellite
is not found.

As soon as the turntable has found the correct satellite, automatic fi ne-tuning is carried out (and if the signal
level is suffi cient, the satellite position is immediately saved by the turntable). The screen may “freeze”
during fi ne-tuning – this is determined by the system.

The set position (of the satellite that was found) is saved and the desired channel appears on the TV
screen.

Press the



button to start search mode.

The search may take a few minutes (generally about four minutes). You will fi rst see the following
message:
