When you have completed adjusting the settings of your digi- tal receiver to your individual preferences, you can then, if you like, adjust the antenna settings of your digital receiver. The satellites selected by means of the installation assistant will be displayed in the menu Antenna settings. If the installa- tion assistant was prematurely aborted, the satellite positions ASTRA and EUTELSAT are pre-programmed ex factory.

6.4.1 Switching DiSEqC on and off

>In this line, use the OK key to switch DiSEqC on or off.

As only a single LNC can be controlled when the DiSEqC control function is switched off, the menu is limited to the configuration of a single LNC.

6.4.2 Setting the switching matrix

The menu lists the four switching criteria of the DiSEqC con- trol function. Your unit has been pre-programmed at the facto- ry to receive ASTRA at the switching position A/A and Eutelsat at the position B/A of a multi-switch. If the switching matrix of your reception installation be set up differently, or if it is set up to receive other satellites, you can adjust the set- tings of your digital receiver in accordance with the require- ments of your reception installation as follows.

>Use the arrow keys to select the DiSEqC switch posi- tion (1-4) to which you wish to allocate a satellite (e.g.. A/B 3 No Satellite), by marking this line.

>Confirm by pressing OK.

A table showing a number of different satellites will be displayed.
