User Band Number
In a Unicable system, each connected satellite tuner
must be numbered (e.g. 0, 1, 2 or 3 etc.).
You can find the available user bands and their
number on the Unicable switchbox. User band is
sometimes shortened as UB. If you select Unicable in
the settings, the TV will ask you to assign the unique
user band number for each built-in satellite tuners. A
satellite tuner cannot have the same user band
number as another satellite tuner in the Unicable
system.
User Band Frequency
Next to the unique user band number, the built-in
satellite receiver needs the frequency of the selected
user band number. These frequencies are mostly
shown next to the user band number on a Unicable
switchbox.
Satellite CAM
If you use a CAM (CI+) – a Conditional Access Module
with a smart card – to watch satellite channels, we
recommend to do the satellite installation with the
CAM inserted in the TV.
Most CAMs are used to descramble channels.
Scan channels with Satellite manual tuning
Satellite Manual Tuning is used to scan only one
satellite by setting the Transponder of selected
satellite. In this condition of scanning, only
Transponder adjustment is allowed, other setting
items are disabled.
Unicable Setup
The Unicable System
You can use a Single Cable system or Unicable
system to connect the antenna dish to the TV. A
Single Cable system uses one cable to connect the
satellite dish to all satellite tuners in its system. A
Single Cable system is typically used in apartment
buildings. If you use a Unicable system, the TV will ask
you to assign a user band number and corresponding
frequency during the installation.
If you notice some missing channels after a Unicable
installation, another installation might have been
done at the same moment on the Unicable system.
Do the installation again to install the missing
channels.
Newest generation CAMs can install all the satellite
channels by themselves on your TV. The CAM will
invite you to install its satellite(s) and channels. These
CAMs not only install and descramble the channels
but also handle regular channel updates.
To open the CAM (CI+) menu...
