6.4 Antenna settings

When you have completed adjusting the settings of your digi-
tal receiver to your individual preferences, you can then, if
you like, adjust the antenna settings of your digital receiver.
The satellites selected by means of the installation assistant
will be displayed in the menu Antenna settings. If the installa-
tion assistant was prematurely aborted, the satellite positions
ASTRA and EUTELSAT are pre-programmed ex factory.
If you would also like to receive other satellites, or if you are
using a different type of LNC, you can make the appropriate
settings on your digital receiver as follows:
>

Press Menu to call up the Main Menu. (Fig. 6-6)

>

Use the up/down arrow keys to mark the item
Settings.

>

Confirm by pressing OK.
The menu Settings will be displayed. (Fig. 6-7)

>

Now use the up/down arrow keys to mark the item
Antenna settings.

>

Confirm by pressing OK. The menu Antenna settings
will be displayed. (Fig. 6-8)

The following settings may be made in this sub-menu:

6.4.1 Switching DiSEqC on and off

DiSEqC (Digital Satelliten Equipment Control) is a digital swit-
ching system used to control DiSEqC-compatible components
via the antenna connection. If your external unit is equipped
with DiSEqC components, you must activate the DiSEqC con-
trol function:
>

In this line, use the OK key to switch DiSEqC on or
off.
As only a single LNC can be controlled when the
DiSEqC control function is switched off, the menu is
limited to the configuration of a single LNC.

6.4.2 Setting the switching matrix

The menu lists the four switching criteria of the DiSEqC con-
trol function. Your unit has been pre-programmed at the facto-
ry to receive ASTRA at the switching position A/A and
Eutelsat at the position B/A of a multi-switch. If the switching
matrix of your reception installation be set up differently, or if
it is set up to receive other satellites, you can adjust the set-
tings of your digital receiver in accordance with the require-
ments of your reception installation as follows.
>

Use the arrow keys to select the DiSEqC switch posi-
tion (1-4) to which you wish to allocate a satellite (e.g..
A/B 3 No Satellite), by marking this line.

>

Confirm by pressing OK.
A table showing a number of different satellites will be
displayed.
