10 Use with a rotating antenna (DiSEqC 1.2)

Your digital receiver is ready for use with a motorised rotating antenna. Using the DiSEqC control (DiSEqC level 1.2) you have the facility to control a suitable motor via the co-axial cable.

>As described in Point Punkt 6.4, call up the menu

Antenna settings (Fig. 10-1)and switch the DiSEqC control (Point 6.4.1) on.

>Now use the arrow keys up/down to select the DiSEqC position (e.g. A/B 3) to which you wish to allocate the motor antenna.

>Press the OK key to open a window allowing you to select the Satellite resp. the Motor antenna. (Fig. 10-2)

>Use the arrow keys up/down to select the line Motor antenna and confirm by pressing OK.

>A note regarding the setting of East and West limits will be displayed. (Fig. 10-3).Confirm by pressing OK.

10.1 East and West limits

To avoid mechanical damage to the satellite dish or the LNB by physical obstacles, you must first set the maximum degree of rotation to both East and West. If there are any obstacles in the rotating field of the dish (e.g. a wall or chimney), these must definitely be considered when setting the East-West limits.

If there are no obstacles in the rotating range of the dish, set the limits so that the dish can be rotated a little further than the most extreme locations of the satellites to be received.

10.1.1 Deleting existing limits

First, you should delete any limits that may exist.

>Use the arrow keys left/right to mark the column
