Setting system parameters

Antenna settings

This menu is intended solely for service purposes and, if need be, i.e. if no measuring instrument is available, it can be used to align the antenna (satellite dish).

The satellite can be defined in the first line and the transponder in the second.

The polarisation of the received signal and the transmitted symbol rate are shown in the next line.

The bar displays provide an indication of the strength (relative level) of the signal and its quality. However, no conclusions relating to the quality of the antenna system or of the cable connection can be derived from this signal.

Antenna rotor / Positioner (DiSEqC 1.2)

For operation with a rotor (DiSEqC 1.2), select "on" in the line "Motor/Goto 0."

In the next line "Move/save", you can align the antenna to the west or to the east using the ￿ or ￿ button. Confirm the selection by

pressing ￿. The optimal alignment can be observed by the bar diagram "Level."

In the line "Set limiting value," you can direct the outer focuses (restricted by walls and other hindrances) to west or east using the ￿

or ￿ button.

In each case, carefully read the operating manual from the rotor's manufacturer (this especially includes other settings than those described above).
