Perform a Channel search

Use the



buttons to select (yes or no) whether you wish to start a channel search. It is not essential to

start a channel search; instead you can use the factory pre-programmed channels. However the channels
do change from time to time (e.g. their frequencies change), which the receiver does not automatically
detect, and can then be found only by performing a channel search.

If you selected “No”, you can press the

$

(green) button to skip directly to the next item of the fi rst

installation.

If you selected “Yes”, you can press the



button to progress to the next selection item.

Channel Search Mode

Use the



buttons to select whether you wish to search “free & encrypted”, “only free” or “encrypted

only” channels.

The UFS 640si does not allow encrypted channels to be viewed, because no Common Interface is
fi tted for insertion of the necessary CA modules and smart cards.

Press the



button to move to the next selection item.

Network Search

If you set the network search to “Off”, only the factory stored transponders of the satellites you previously
selected will be scanned for new and 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 searched for new channels in the same way as the
existing transponders.

Press the

$

(green) button to start the channel search, or if you set channel search to “Off” you are guided

straight to the next item in the fi rst installation process.
When the search has been completed, you will see the following message (example):
