Satellite swap
Generally, satellites can be swapped by entering a different satellite in the menu
option „Search satellite" and selecting the automatic search. To facilitate a quick
and convenient swap to a different satellite, the so-called „quick satellite-swap"
function has been added to the DiseqC system. This function allows the antenna
to be aimed at four preset satellites in a very short time. However, this function
E
only works correctly if the preset satellites are actually receivable at your current
location.
Presetting the positions:
Call up the menu item „SAT position" and assign the four positions to the respective
satellites. If you do not assign all four positions, the remaining positions will retain
the satellites preset by the manufacturer. The presets are now complete, you may
now exit the settings menu.
It is quite easy to change to a different satellite: Press
to scroll forward in the
general menu until the message „SAT swap" appears in the display.
Now, press to show the currently received satellite in the display. Press
or
to
scroll between the four preset satellites.
Note: If you decide not to assign all four positions and fi nd that you would
rather not use one of the factory-preset satellites, you can also assign the
same satellite to more than one position. If for example you wish to swap bet-
ween Astra and Hotbird only, then set Astra to position 1, Hotbird to position
2, Astra again to position 3 and Hotbird again to Position 4. . When scrolling
with the keys
or
, the system will then only alternate between Astra and
Hotbird.
When the desired satellite is shown in the display, press
to directly move the
antenna into the corresponding position.
Of course, your satellite receiver must also be set to a programme of the set satelli-
te.
The display will then revert to „Sat mode".
