Differences in the permanent display

In TV sets with more than 200 program positions, the TV and radio program positions are managed in two separate station tables. Thisdifference is indicated as follows in the permanent display:

P01stands for SAT-TV program position 01 R01 stands for SAT-radio program position 01

The SAT-radio station table is identified by a blue header line, while the SAT-TV station table has a red header line.

1. SAT Programming

LNC frequency

for 100 Hz sets

The most popular SAT stations are already stored in this TV set (see the station table). These stations are divided into the following groups: ASTRA TV stations, HOTBIRD TV stations and EUTELSAT TV stations. Each of these groups can be assigned only in its entirety and is stored starting at the programme position you specify. In the case of the ASTRA satellite, the group is subdivided into TV and radio stations.

Example: You want to store all of the ASTRA TV stations, in the order in which they are listed in the station table, starting at programme

position 01.

1. Call the menu „SAT programming“

2. Select the desired satellite (in this example, ASTRA)

3. Set the 22 kHz switching signal

In this menu, you can select the various satellites.

The available stations will change depending on which satellite is selected.

Depending on the satellite you have selected, various TV and radio stations are presented for selection. The number of stations of each type is shown in figures.

In TV sets which can manage more than 200 program positions, a separate station table is generated for SAT radio stations. This table contains only radio stations.

* Number of stations as in January 1997

This setting is required only for multi-switch systems with a 22 kHz switching signal.

If you select On, the subsequently stored programme table will be stored with this setting (= 22 kHz signal on).

The 22 kHz switching signal can be switched on or off, depending on the frequency.

* Number of stations as in January 1997

ADR stations can be selected only if the ADRSAT upgrade kit is installed!

1. SAT Programming

LNC frequency

for 50 Hz sets

The most popular SAT stations are already stored in this TV set (see the station table). These stations are divided into the following groups: ASTRA TV stations, ASTRA radio stations and EUTELSAT TV stations. Each of these groups can be assigned only in its entirety and is stored starting at the program position you specify.

Example:

You have programmed your TV set to receive terrestrial stations (stations you receive via the normal aerial) on program positions 1 to 3. You now want to store all of the ASTRA TV stations, in the order in which they are listed in the station table, starting at program position 4.

1. Call the menu „Station set-

tings“

2. Call the menu „SAT pro-

gramming“

3. Set the LNC frequencies

Before your transfer the desired group of SAT stations, you must always set and store the required LNC frequencies.

The values to which the LNC frequencies V and H are set depending on the LNCs used in your SAT aerial. They may be set to frequencies in the range of 9.50 GHz to 12.00 GHz. Please consult the technical data of your SAT aerial for the correct values.

If these LNC frequencies are not set, the stations will not be stored with the correct channel number or the TV set will be tuned incorrectly if you enter a station frequency. In such cases, no picture will be displayed when you select the related program position or a station which is stored in another program position will appear.

The number of stations depends on the previously selected V and H LNC frequencies.

When you select a group, the text „from prog. number

- - “ is displayed on the next line. Enter the number of the program position at which the

first station of the group is to be stored (the remaining stations of the group will be stored in the following program positions).

Back to the example:

All ASTRA TV stations are copied from the station table to the program storage, starting at program position 04.

Any program settings already stored in these positions will be overwritten and are thus lost.

If you wish to change the program assignments, you can sort, copy or delete the settings of the program positions as described in Section 3.1 of the Operating Instructions for the TV set.

The precise assignments and the order of

the stations can be found in the enclosed station table.

2. LNC Power Supply

Setting the LNC voltages

TV satellites such as ASTRA 1A - D transmit the various programs with vertical (V) or horizontal (H) polarization.

If the polarization of your satellite aerial is switched by means of the LNC voltage, you must set the appropriate voltage for each station.

The two voltages which are required for selection of the polarization can be set in the menu „LNC power supply“.

For each station listed in the station table, one of these two voltages must then be assigned in the submenu „Aerial control“.

If you are connected to a community aerial, the LNC voltages must always be set to „Off“.

1. Call the menu „SAT set-

tings“

2. Call the menu „LNC power

supply“

3. Set „LNC voltage H“

These settings can be made only for SAT program positions.

The supply voltages and the control of the satellite aerial can be set in this menu.

The LNC voltages are necessary to permit selection of either horizontal (H) or vertical (V) polarization.

The supply voltages required for setting the LNC to horizontal and vertical polarization are set here.

If your TV set is connected to a community aerial, LNC voltage H and LNC voltage V must

both be set to

OFF in order to prevent damage to the community aerial.

To do this, press the key several times until Off is displayed.

Store the selected values by pressing the key.

Whenever the voltage setting is changed, a red box appears at the bottom right of the screen. When you have set the correct voltage, press the key to store it.

3. Polarizer

Setting the polarizer values

In some satellite aerials, horizontal (H) and vertical (V) polarization of the LNC is selected by means of a magnetic polarizer.

With this type of aerial, up to 5 current values (polarizer 1..5) are sent via the polarizer socket (on the back of the TV set) to the magnetic polarizer, which then sets the appropriate polarization.

You can set 5 global polarizer values, which can then be assigned individually to the various program positions in the submenu „Aerial control“.

Press this key on the remote

control

The screen displays Explanation

1. Call the menu „SAT set-

tings“

2. Call the menu „Polarizer“

and set polarizer 1

3. Store the polarizer setting

and return to the TV picture

These settings can be carried out only on SAT program positions and should be made only if your SAT aerial has a magnetic polarizer.

The polarizer settings can be used to select H or V polarization.

The polarization angle can be adjusted to match the satellite with the keys.

The polarization angle can be adjusted in individual steps in the ranges 0 to +99 and 0 to -99. The received TV picture is visible behind the menu display.
