Initial settings

UFO micro

The setting in this menu entry is also designed for operation of the receiver on a pre-processing system.

Here control and communication between the receiver and the Kathrein “UFO mi- cro" system is effected via the return path of the coaxial cable.

If the UFD 420 receiver is operated on a “UFO micro“ receiving system, an “ On" setting must be made in menu entry “UFO micro".

A special address is then assigned to the receiver by the receiving system during installation, so that the control commands sent to the receiving system for signal selection are also recognised by it.

A remote frequency does not need to be set up in this mode of operation since this is determined by the “UFO micro" system with the addressing.

If the receiver is used on different receiving systems the previously assigned ad- dress is to be deleted. This is done in menu entry “Reset".

As a result, the receiver is then assigned the factory-preset address once again (virgin address). Following this, the “On" setting should be made again. The re- ceiver is then given a new address by the new system..

Note

The pre-programming is not cleared on “Reset".
