Kathrein UFS 902 manual Satellite, Channel Search Mode

SEARCHING FOR CHANNELS (CHANNEL SEARCH)

Satellite

Select the satellite to be searched, using the  buttons. Make sure your reception system is aligned to the selected satellite. You can search only one satellite at a time. If you have connected a multi-feed reception system (e.g. reception of ASTRA 19.2° East and HOTBIRD 13° East), you must repeat this procedure once for each satellite. You can however start the first installation again, in the course of which a channel search of all the satellites you selected is performed.

Press the  button to move to the next selection item.

Channel Search Mode

Use the  buttons to select whether you wish to search “free & scrambled”, “free channels only” or “scrambled only” channels.

To view scrambled channels you need the appropriate CA (Conditional Access) module and a valid smart card together with a valid subscription to the relevant pay TV provider.

Press the  button to move to the next selection item.

Network Search

Use the  buttons (On/Off) to select whether a network search should be performed. If you set the network search to “Off”, only the factory stored transponders of the satellites you previously selected will be searched for new as yet unlisted channels.

If you set the network search to “On”, the transponder network enables additional transponders that have not yet been stored to be located. They are then stored and searched for new channels in the same way as the existing transponders.

When you have made your settings, use the  buttons to select “Start Search” and press

the  button to start the search. You can cancel the search at any time by pressing the  button. During the search you will see the following message (example):
