distribution of TV and radio signals to the user in one ore more

 

 

buildings.

Stream

 

The signal which is received from the transponder which

 

 

contains the together with the video signal, additional

 

 

information that the receiver needs in order to process the

 

 

received signal correctly.

Symbol rate

Invisible information which tells the receiver at which speed

 

 

(rate) the transponder sends the digital information (symbols).

 

 

The receiver must be able to handle the symbol rate to

 

 

process the signal correctly into a correct image.

Transponder

Equipment inside a satellite responsible for receiving a single

 

 

uplinked channel and rebroadcasting it back to Earth.

3.EXPLANATION OF THE SEARCH MODES

In the various menu pages you can make a selection from various search modes. The search mode gives the possibility to scan a satellite or transponder in a particular manner. The search modes are identified as:

All

In this mode the built-in database is used to select the available transponders.

 

The digital and analog channels that belong to these transponders are

 

searched for and added to the all channel list.

FTA

In this mode the built-in database is used to only search for the available

 

FTA channels which are then added to the all channel list. In the real world it

 

seems that the service providers do not always accurately code their channels

 

with a scrambled or FTA code. For this reason you may find that some

 

searched channels are scrambled. Also there is a possibility that scrambled

 

channels are coded as FTA. These channels will then be missed out because

 

of the erroneous code.

Network

In this mode the built-in database or information from the received stream is

 

used to search for the transponders that are included with the currently

 

received network. The digital channels that belong to this network are

 

searched for and added to the all channel list.

TP

In this mode the built-in database or information from the received stream is

 

used to search for or scan in the selected transponder. The digital and/or

 

analog channels that belong to this transponder only are searched for or

 

scanned in and added to the all channel list.

Digital

In this mode the built-in database is used to search for the available digital

 

channels. The digital channels are then added to the all channel list. The digital

 

channels are shown as white channel names for easy recognition.

Analog

In this mode the built-in database is used to add the analog channels to the all

 

channel list. The analog channels are shown as black channel names for easy

 

recognition.

Digital IF

In this mode the currently received satellite is scanned for digital channels. The

 

digital channels, within the tuner bandwidth and selected symbol rates are

 

scanned in and added to the all channel list.

Analog IF

In this mode the currently received satellite is scanned for analog channels.

 

The analog channels within the tuner bandwidth are scanned in and added to

 

the all channel list.

Update

In this mode the built-in database is used to search for the available digital

 

channels. Then all new channels are added to the all channel list.

None

Transponders on the selected satellite are not searched for.
