8.2 Geo-positioning

If you have a suitable motor and know the geographic co- ordinates of your location, this function will make it easier to find the individual satellite positions. The co-ordinates of a number of German cities are listed in the Annexure (Point 12).

Note! You should only switch on the geo-positioning function if your DiSEqC motor supports this function.

>As described, call up the menu LNB Settings.

>

Use the arrow keys to mark the field Geo.Pos.

(Fig. 8-9)

>Confirm by pressing OK. The menu used to enter the co-ordinates of your location will be displayed. (Fig. 8- 9)

>Press the OK key to switch the geo-positioning function on or off.

>Use the arrow keys to select the input field for Longitude.

>Use the numeric keys to enter your geographic longitude.

>Press the arrow key left.

>In this field, press the OK key to indicate whether the value refers to longitude East (E) or longitude West (W).

>Use the arrow keys to select the input field for Latitude.

>Use the numeric keys to enter your geographic latitude.

>Press the arrow key left.

>In this field, press the OK key to indicate whether the value refers to latitude North (N) or South (S).

>Press the Back key to return to the menu LNB Settings.

The co-ordinates for your location must be entered as a decimal figure with one decimal place. As co-ordinates are usually expressed in degrees, minutes and seconds, they must be converted to decimal values as follows:

The degree figure does not change. The minutes are divided by 60, and rounded to one decimal place. The result of this division is added to the degree figure.

Seconds are not considered, as they have no influence on the value of the first decimal place.
