6.5.2 Switching DiSEqC on and off

DiSEqC (Digital Satellite Equipment Control) is a digital switching/controlling signal used to control DiSEqC-compatible components via the antenna cable. If your external unit is equipped with DiSEqC components, you must switch the DiSEqC controlling function:

>In this line, use the arrow keys left/right to switch DiSEqC on or off.

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

6.5.3 Antenna signals

Your receiver is equipped with two tuners. This allows you to record one programme while viewing another programme. So that you can enjoy the full benefit of the functions of your twin receiver for both recording and playback, you should definitely use two separate antenna connections (antenna signals). Please also note Point 8.1.

>In this line, use the arrow keys left/right to set the number of antenna signals to 2, if you are connecting your receiver to two separate antenna connections. If only one antenna connection is available, then set this item to 1.

To utilise all the recording facilities of your receiver, you should ensure it is connected via two independent antenna connections. This allows you to use the following combinations of recording and playback:

-Recording a programme and simultaneously watching another programme

(1 programme in HD format and 1 programme in SD format or 2 programmes in SD format) or call up any recording on the hard drive.

-Simultaneously record two programmes (1 programme in HD format and

1 programme in SD format or 2 programmes in SD format) even if these are received in differing reception fields.

-Simultaneously receive two different programmes (even differing fields of reception; 1 programme in HD format and 1 programme in SD format or 2 programmes in

SD format) and at the same time show a previously recorded programme.

If only one antenna connection is available for connection to the receiver, only a limited range of recording and playback options is available.
