Connection and setup
Before you start configuring the tuner for your type of reception system you must first make both the “Tuner 2 connection type” and “Tuner 2 Signal Configuration” settings. Once you have made these settings, continue to follow the directions for your type of reception.
Tuner 2 Connection type
Select the type of connection for tuner 2 here. The currently selected setting is shown graphically in the connection example at the top left of the screen. Either:
Separated:
The second tuner input of the receiver, identified at the rear of the unit by “LNB2 in”, receives its own signal input (i.e. there is a direct connection between the antenna socket and tuner input 2). See example illustration on the right.
Loopthrough:
The second tuner input of the receiver, identified at the rear of the unit by “LNB2 in”, receives the signal currently looped through from the tuner 1 looped through output, identified by “Loopthrough”. In this case, the second tuner can only receive the channel level currently being received by the first tuner. See example illustration on the right.
Tuner 2 Signal Configuration (only for “Separated” connection type)
Select the signal configuration for tuner 2 here. The currently selected setting is shown graphically in the connection example at the top left of the screen. Either:
Same with Tuner 1:
Both tuners are connected to the same signal source.
See example illustration on the right.
Different from Tuner 1:
The two tuners are connected to different signal sources (separate cables from the LNB). See example illustration on the right.
