Installation menu
DiSEqC setting
The precondition for this setting is that you have made no changes in the DiSEqC
(UFO) set-up, refer to the section "DiSEqC (UFO) Set-up".
When you are in the LNB configuration menu (see above), press the
ou
buttons to move the coloured bar to the "HotBird" position, press the
-
or
+
button
and by pressing
O
confirm that you wish to add a satellite. The transponder data
are now stored and a check appears after "HotBird" to confirm the setting. You can
now set the DiSEqC signal. It serves the purpose of switching between the two
aligned satellites. Press the
ou
buttons to go to the DiSEqC-1 setting.
Set #1 for ASTRA and #2 for HotBird. Both positions are already pre-programmed.
You can pre-program up to four satellites (16 settings: 4x H and V as well as 4x
High and Low).
Press the
L
button 4 times to exit the menu. At the same time, the receiver will
confirm that the set parameters have been saved. If a setting is incorrect, you will
see this message on the screen: "Bad or no signal"
With cascaded switches, a total of 16 satellite positions can be stored under DiS-
EqC 2. With H/V as well as High/Low this results in a total of 256 settings. You
should have a specialist carry out these settings and set-up such a system.
Antenna settings
his menu is intended solely for service
purposes and, if need be, i.e. if no
measuring instrument is available, it can
be used to align the antenna (satellite
dish).
The satellite can be defined in the first line
and the transponder in the second.
The polarisation of the received signal and
the transmitted symbol rate are shown in
the next line.
The bar displays provide an indication of the strength (relative level) of the signal
and its quality. However, no conclusions relating to the quality of the antenna sys-
tem or of the cable connection can be derived from this signal.
Satellite search
In the satellite search menu you can
instruct the receiver to search for channels
on the satellite. Select the menu line with
the
ou

sponding TV and satellite magazines or Internet websites.
