TechniSat DIGIT MF4-S manual Setting a satellite position, Latitude deg 11 ‘

affect the first decimal place.

Example: Co-ordinates of Daun/Germany (home of TechniSat)

Latitude (deg.)			50°	11‘	(45“)	N
Longitude (deg.)			06°	50‘	(10”)	E
Conversion of degree latitude (lat):
Lat	=	50	+	11/60
Lat	=	50	+	0,2	(rounded)
Lat	=	50.2

In the menu used to enter the geographical latitude you would thus enter the value rounded to one decimal place (50.2).

The decimal value of the degrees longitude will be calculated in the same manner.

9.3 Setting a satellite position

For each satellite position to be entered, work through Points 9.3.1 to

9.3.3.When programming satellite positions, we recommend that you begin with the satellite in the most easterly position, then work your way through all the remaining positions in a westerly direction, finis- hing off with the most extreme westerly satellite position. Your digital receiver is pre-programmed at the factory for the most commonly used satellite positions. In addition, you can configure user-defined satellite positions (User 1 to User 14) for every possible orbital position.

9.3.1 Selecting a satellite position

9.3.1.1 Selecting a pre-programmed satellite position

	>	To accept a satellite position in the satellite list, use the
		arrow keys to mark the field Sat new.
	>	Confirm by pressing OK.
		A list with all the available satellite positions will be displayed.
		(Fig. 9-10)

		position you would like to accept into the satellite list.
	>	Press OK to accept the selection.
	With the Geo-positioningfunction set to On (Point 9.2), the dish
	will now automatically be rotated to the programmed satellite position.
	The rotation procedure will be indicated by a blinking display “turn”.
	If the Geo-positioningfunction is switched Off, (Point 9.3.2.2) you
	will have to turn the dish manually to the desired satellite position.
