The reception status last set always reappears when the receiver is switched on.
If the message "bad or no signal" appears on the screen in addition to an on- screen display indicating the channel last received, you will need to check the system installation and/or the receiver settings. If this problem only applies to individual channel slots, the problem may be due to an interruption in the transmission signal or a fault in the receiving system (cable or satellite system).
In this case, first check the connection configuration and then check whether the basic settings of your receiver are correct for your system. In the case of doubt, have a specialist do this for you.
Factory setting of the receiver
Your receiver is preprogrammed to receive the ASTRA and HotBird satellites. You will normally need to make no further settings. To receive both satellite systems or other satellites you will require a multifeed arrangement with at least two LNBs in front of the satellite dish if you are not connected to a communal or party system. Please ask your dealer.
Before you change the basic settings of your receiver, note down the settings in the form provided at the end of this User's Guide. In this way, you will be able to restore the original settings at any time.
