Programming TV programmes

Orbit Position

In the “Orbit Position“ menu entry, division of the satellites into orbit positions 1 to 4 is carried out.

This dividing up is necessary for the signal selection with the 22 kHz, tone-burst or DiSEqC switching signal on reception from two (or more) satellites.

The receiver is pre-programmed in accordance with the following table.

	Satellite	Orbit position	Switching signal 22 kHz

	Astra 19.2° east	1	Off
	Eutelsat 13° east	2	On
	Eutelsat 10° east	3	Off
	Eutelsat 16° east	4	On
Note	In the initial setup menu (DiSEqC menu, menu entry 22 kHz) the particular setting
	is specified (frequency band High/Low or orbit position Pos A/B) for which
	the 22 kHz switching signal is operative.
	Default setting in initial setup menu:
	22 kHz signal on for “Pos. A/B“.

Video deviation

The satellites transmit their signals with different video deviation, 16 or 25 MHz. The setting has an effect on the picture brightness.

∙Adjust the video deviation to obtain optimum picture brightness.

Decoder menu

You can attach a decoder to the decoder Scart socket for a Pay-TV programme with video signal.

The receiver recognises Pay-TV programmes for which decoders deliver a switch- ing signal (e.g. like Premiere) independently, and switches this signal through to the TV Scart socket:

To ensure that the decoded Pay TV programme is also switched through to the VCR Scart socket to permit video recording, the video signal path needs to be switched to external in the decoder menu. The following setting achieves this. The same is applicable for decoders that do not deliver a switching voltage.

∙Call up the video setup menu

∙Select menu entry “Decoder menu“

∙Activate the “Decoder menu“.

Setting option:

Video signal path: Internal / External

Audio signal path: Internal / External

∙Set the video signal path to external

∙Set the audio signal path to external only if audio signal is encoded as well

∙Save the settings with the key.
