Satellite

Select the satellite to be scanned, using the



buttons. Make sure your reception system is aligned

to the selected satellite. You can scan only one satellite at a time. If you have connected a multi-feed
reception system (e.g. reception of ASTRA 19.2° East and HOTBIRD 13° East), you must repeat this
procedure once for each satellite. You can however start the fi rst installation again, in the course of which
a channel scan of all the satellites you selected is performed.

Press the



button to move to the next selection item.

Channel scan mode

Use the



buttons to select whether you wish to scan “free & scrambled”, “only free” or “only

scrambled” channels.

To view encrypted channels you need the appropriate CA (Conditional Access) module and a
valid smart card together with a valid subscription to the respective Pay-TV provider.

Press the



button to move to the next selection item.

Network scan

Use the



buttons (On/Off) to select whether a network scan should be performed. If you set the

network scan to “Off”, only the factory stored transponders of the satellites you previously selected
will be scanned for new as yet unlisted channels.
If you set the network scan to “On”, the transponder network enables additional transponders that have
not yet been stored to be located. They are then stored and scanned for new channels in the same way
as the existing transponders.

When you have made your settings, use the



buttons to select “Start Search” and press the



button

to start scanning. You can cancel the scan at any time by pressing the



button. During the scan you

will see the following message (example):
