9 Programming Your Receiver in the Main Menu
If you want to receive additional or other programs to
those which were preset, you can program
,01 the new broadcaster yourself. You can also use a variety of
service functions ranging from antenna positioning to prefer-
ence lists and access control.
9.1 General Settings
You already used this menu item when you set up your receiver (Section 5).
You can, of course, change the settings at any time if, for example, you want to adapt the receiver to a
new location.
NOTE:
When the changeover between Summer and Winter Time occurs, you must make the appropriate
changes under menu item 2.
9.2 Preference Lists
You need to programme a personal list in order to use all of the available functions of your receiver.
There are 5 lists named A to E already installed.
Under point ”1. Rename List” specify a name for the
list. You should name it according to its contents, for
example ”News”” or ”Sport”, or according to the
person who uses that list – be creative!
Menu item 1 allows you to change the names at any
time.
GB
Use “2 Add/Delete Program” to create your list.
• Use the UP/DOWN buttons to select the desired
program in the complete video list (right) and
confirm your choice with OK.
The program is now included in your personal list. It
now has the current list number (three digit) and has
a “P” to identify it as a TV program.
Version 1.0 Page 31
Page 14
Programming Your Receiver
In order to include a radio station in your personal list, switch from the complete video list to the complete radio list using the RADIO button. The procedure is the same as above. Radio programs which

• Press the < button to access the personal list and use the UP/DOWN buttons to select the desired
program. Press the OK button to confirm that you want to delete the program.
If the name of a station does not match you presets, you can change it using menu item 3 as often as
you wish.
To change the order of the programs in a list, use menu item 4. To do this, select a program and move it
to the new position. Confirm the move by pressing OK.
To create space for a new broadcaster, you can move broadcasters you no longer need to the “recycle
bin”. To do this, use “5 Delete Program from Complete List”.

During automatic search, certain data is already
pre-programmed. Standard satellite systems use
Universal-LNBs with a local oscillator frequency of
9750 MHz for the lower band and 10600 MHz for the
lower band. The basic setting for this receiver contains this data except the ASTRA and HOTBIRD
satellites. You should only change these settings if
your satellite system deviates from this or if you
specifically want different settings.
While the receiver is searching a progress bar
appears on which you can follow the frequency
search. In addition, the following information is also
displayed:
DF: - Satellite frequency
SR: - Symbol rate
.../... - Number of transponders found / possible
New: - Number of stored programmes

If the search fails, check and correct all settings.
Points 5 and 10 ”0/12 Volt Output” have no function in this model.
9.3.2 Manual Search
(This menu is presented in two sections which are
accessed using the Continue and BACK buttons)
These settings should only be changed by qualified
personnel or very advanced users.
Network Search:
Each transponder offers information for the complete
satellite system (Requirement: The provider must
keep the list as up-to-date as possible). When you
enter a transponder and activate the network search,
the receiver automatically searches all transponders
which belong to the network. The definition of the
network varies according to different satellite operators with the result that all channels on a satellite or
only some are examined.
PID (Packed Identifier):
The PID number is the identification for video and audio signals in the digital data flow of DVB MPEG-2
signals.
Version 1.0 Page 33
Due to inadequate labelling, many programs may not be recognised during either automatic or manual
searches. In such cases, you can enter the PID numbers to receive these programs.
Point 5 ”0/12 Volt Output” has no function in this model.
Page 16
Programming Your Receiver
9.3.3 Programme Data Transfer
This menu item is included to support specialist retailers. In this way a desired preset can be transferred from a master device to several slave devices. This pre-setting serves the common interests of a
group of customers, for example regional or ethnic interests.
Master and slave receivers are linked together using as RS 232 interface.
NOTE:
All receiver functions are locked while the receiver is in data transfer mode. The transfer of data can
only be interrupted by removing the mains cable.
9.3.4 Reinstallation
If you changed or deleted the preset data, you can reset the receiver to the factory settings. To do this
you will need the password (Section 9.4).
9.3.5 Transponder Editor
You can change, add or delete all satellite data. This function is intended only for servicing purposes
and has no effect whatsoever on the operation of your receiver.
NOTE:
If you delete all of the data for a satellite, the satellite itself is also deleted.
9.3.6 Delete all Channels
CAUTION:
When you carry out this function (password needed) all settings are deleted and you will need to
reprogram your receiver!
If you want to replace the entire program information, delete all programs. Your receiver now displays
the “Welcome” menu as described in Section 6.
9.4 Access Manager
Several functions on your receiver can only be
accessed using a password – the factory default is
0 0 0 0.
In order to prevent unauthorised access to your
receiver, you can protect it with an access lock.

9.5 Antenna Control
The following settings require highly specialised
knowledge and skills. If in doubt, you should have
this work carried out by an experienced professional.
Requirements:
The parabolic antenna must feature a control motor
which receives and uses the signal from the receiver.
The mechanical settings for the antenna must be
carried out correctly so that the satellites orbit can be
properly tracked. This is the only way to ensure that
the strongest possible signal is received.
In the “General Settings” menu, “7. DiSEqC” must be
set to ON.
Programming Your Receiver
GB
The satellite receiver “knows” the position of each
satellite in relation to each other. As a result, it is
sufficient to select and find just one satellite in the
“Antenna Positioner” menu and set it to maximum
strength and store it. All other known satellites are
configured and stored using the calculate command.
You can of course search for new satellites – you
must only use menu items 1-4.
In the submenu “1 Set Limits”, the physical limits are
set within which the parabolic antenna can move
without obstruction.
To do this, move the antenna as far east as possible and this position should be stored using “Set East
Limit”. After this, the antenna moves westwards using menu item 1 and the west limit is set. If the
structural surroundings change, you can delete the limits and recreate them to match the new surroundings.
Menu item “5 Reference Position” resets the antenna control motor to the delivery position (dead
centre).
NOTE:
If your motor does not have a motor, you can use the Antenna positioner menu to check the signal
strength.

Trouble Shooting
10 Trouble Shooting Your digital Receiver
NOTE:
Digital communications involve the simultaneous transfer and processing of large amounts of data.
Changing channels may takes longer in comparison to analogue devices.
An hourglass appears on screen with the message “Please Wait” while the receiver changes channel.
