8.4 Programme scan

As mentioned, your digital receiver has been pre-programm-
ed for reception of the ASTRA and EUTELSAT satellites. To
receive new programmes, or those of other satellites, various
options are provided to preform a programme scan (search).

1. Automatic scan
Select this type of search mode to scan all satellites selected
in the menu LNC Settings (Point 6.4 and 8.4) for program-
mes.

2. Satellite scan
Select this search mode to scan a selected satellite for pro-
grammes.

3. Transponder scan
Select this search mode to scan a specific transponder of a
satellite for programmes.

4. Manual scan
Select this search mode to scan specifically for a particular
programme, using the programme-specific PID numbers.

When the scan has been completed, a message will appear
on screen indicating how many programmes your digital
receiver has found, how many of these are new, and how
many are encrypted. New programmes will be stored in the
Total list, from where they can be included in the Favourites
list, as per Point 8.1.
