Tone burst and DiSEqC signal

If more than four control criteria are needed in a receiving system, a

DiSEqC control signal is required.

Which of the two setting options is required: “Tone Burst“ or “ DiSEqC“ depends on the components of the receiving system.

Thus take into account the specifications of the components present in the receiv- ing system (switch-over matrices).

Tone burst

In the “Tone burst“ menu entry the following settings of the 22 kHz signal are pos- sible:

Switching states on setting:

22 kHz signal —>		High/Low and
Tone burst	—>	Pos. A/B:
Low	22 kHz		Off
High	22 kHz		On
Pos. 1	Tone burst		0
Pos. 2	Tone burst		1

Switching states on setting:

22 kHz signal		—>	Pos. A/B and
Tone burst		—>	Opt. A/B
Pos	Tone burst			22 kHz
1		0		Off
2		0		On
3		1		Off
4		1		On

Switching states on setting:

22 kHz signal —>		Pos. A/B and
Tone burst	—>	High/Low
Low	Tone burst		0
High	Tone burst		1
Pos. 1	22 kHz		Off
Pos. 2	22 kHz		On

DiSEqC

	Up to 16 inputs can be switched with the “DiSEqC“ control signal.
	∙ If the receiver is connected to a “DiSEqC" switch-over matrix, set the menu en-
	try to “On” .
Note	For optimal usage it is essential to know the switching criteria and the input as-
	signments of the DiSEqC switching matrices.
	Thus take into account the specifications of the DiSEqC switching matrices or get
	in touch with the installer of the receiving system.

DiSEqC repeat

If the receiver is operated on a receiving system with two or more DiSEqC switch- ing matrices connected in series (cascaded), the DiSEqC command must be re- peated.

∙ In this case set the menu entry “DiSEqC Repeat" to “1" or “2“. Default: Off

UFO mini

With a “Subscriber-controlled preprocessing system" the receiver‘s input frequency is adjusted to a fixed input frequency. The signals are transmitted by the “Sub- scriber-controlled preprocessing system“ on this frequency. The reception pa- rameters for the programme selection are transmitted by “DiSEqC“ command

to the receiving system and set up there.

Which setting needs to be selected, "On" or “UFO twin 1“ or “ UFO twin 2“, is de- pendent on the design of the “Subscriber-controlled preprocessing system“.

The “UFO mini Twin“ design is a special form of the “Subscriber-controlled pre- processing system“
