Installation Menus

The purpose of the installation menus is to configure the ports and choose settings that remain fixed over time. This section describes in detail each of the Installation menus, fields, and options displayed on the LCD panel.

Return to the main top-level menu and then select the installation menu group.

With the blinking cursor at the upper left, press ENTER button to return to the main top-level menu. Press the 34buttons until the cursor is at the Install label, and press the ENTER button. The DSR-6000 displays the previously selected sub-menu.

Manual Tune Menu

Use this menu to begin to acquire a DigiCipher II system signal, by selecting a transponder frequency for any of the eight L-Band inputs. In addition, this menu allows a user to select the ASI input, as an alternative to RF ports 1-8.

Because many satellite broadcasters use standard C-band transponder center frequencies, selecting a transponder number is the default tuning mode. Use the Xpndr option in the Mode field and edit the Xpndr (transponder) field (described on page 16), for tuning such signals.

For offset-frequency C-band, fractional transponders, or Ku-band satellite broadcasts, use the LFreq option in the Mode field (described on page 16), and directly edit the L-band frequency field.

The DSR-6000 does not actually require any distinction between C-band and Ku- band satellite signals in order to tune and acquire a compatible signal. However, correct modulation information is necessary. For details on modulation, see "Modulation Menu" on page 17.
