Program selection

The unit allows you to enter the program number in one-, two- or three-digit form.

Setting Settable program position

The following oscillator frequencies (LO- frequencies) are already preprogrammed in the delivered state.

LO-	Oscillator frequency
Group	MHz
LO 1	9750
LO 2	9750
LO 3	10600
LO 4	10000

Select the LO-group that is to be changed and enter the required LO-frequency using the numeric

Oscillator Menu

Satellites beam down their programs in a fre- quency range that satellite receivers are unable to deal with. In the receiving system (known as the LNB - Low Noise Block converter or LNC - Low Noise Converter) this frequency is converted to a lower frequency that satellite receivers are then able to handle.

The satellite transmission frequencies lie within the following range:

10700 ... 11700 MHz

11700 ... 12750 MHz

The receiver input frequency however lies only within the range:

950 .... 2150 MHz

The conversion of the high frequencies into a lower frequency is effected with the aid of an oscillator frequency (LO-frequency). Different oscillator fre- quencies are used for the conversion depending on the satellite frequency range and type of satel- lite receiving installation.

As already mentioned in the oscillator-frequency menu entry, the satellites beam down their signals in various frequency ranges.

Furthermore, with an appropriately equipped satel- lite receiving installation, several satellites can be received (multifeed installation).

The following receiving possibilities can be real- ized:

ÞLower receiving range only (Low Band) Frequency range: 10700 ... 11700 MHz

ÞUpper receiving range only (High Band) Frequency range: 11700 ... 12750 MHz

ÞReception of lower and upper frequency ranges.

Frequency range: 10700 ... 12750 MHz

ÞReception of only Astra or only Eutelsat

ÞReception of both Astra and Eutelsat.

In order that the above-listed receiving possibilities may be fully exploited, there are various technical options available on the market, (change-over boxes, matrices) for changeover and distribution of the satellite signals to the individual subscribers.

If you are operating the receiver on such a receiv- ing installation, you will be able to carry out the necessary settings with this particular receiver.
