Xpndr Field
This field is not available when the ASI In option in the Input field is selected.
This field allows selection of an initial satellite transponder number and can only
be used if the Xpndr option in the Mode field is selected. The Xpndr field cannot be
edited if L Freq in the Mode field is selected. Press the4button until the cursor is at
the Xpndr label. Then press the ENTER button to move into the field.
Then press the 56 buttons to select the desired transponder number. Since the
associated transponder/frequency tables are stored in the DSR-6000, scroll through
the transponder numbers and notice that the associated frequency (shown in the
LFreq field to the right) automatically changed with the selection (970-1430 MHz).
There are 24 transponder options, and when the desired transponder selection is
displayed, press the ENTER button to confirm selection and move the cursor back up
to the field label.
LFreq Field
This field is not available when the ASI In option in the Input field is selected.
If the LFreq option in the Mode field is chosen, use this field, to directly tune the
frequency. The LFreq field cannot be edited if Xpndr is chosen in the Mode field.
Press the4button until the cursor is at the LFreq label. Then press the ENTER
button to move into the field.
Use the arrow buttons (34 56) to select the desired frequency. Select a
frequency between 950 MHz and 2150 MHz and press the ENTER button to
confirm a selection and move the cursor back up to the field label.
For those satellite carriers which are offset (C-band or Ku-Band), use the L Freq
option to enter the exact center frequency of a carrier, rather than using a nearby-
but-not-exact C-band transponder center frequency. Long-term frequency tracking
is best if the user enters a precise carrier center frequency.
Contact the programmer or network operator for details about the satellite,
transponder, and frequencies being used. If one frequency is identified as the root
transponder, using this frequency may expedite the download process during
installation.
