DiseqC system

What is DiseqC?
As the number of TV satellites increases, the desire to receive channels from dif-
ferent satellites also increases. To facilitate the switching between different sa-
tellites, the DiseqC system has been developed. This system is incorporated in the
E
receiver and generates a switching signal that allows the user to view the channels
of several satellites by simply changing the TV channel. The system was initially
designed for fi xed-installation home systems. With these systems, the individual
satellite antennas are connected to a so-called DiseqC multiswitch (usually installed
under the roof for practical reasons), to which the satellite receiver is connected.
When the receiver sends a DiseqC signal to the multi-switch, the switch connects
the receiver to the satellite aimed at the respective satellite. The DiseqC signals are
standardized and are generated by almost all state-of-the-art satellite receivers
(DVB-S receivers).
The SamYSolar+® uses this DiseqC signal to automatically move the antenna into
up to four preset satellite positions. The initial confi guration of a DiseqC system
is relatively complex and can be a challenge even to experienced users. When in
doubt, have the system confi gured by a qualifi ed technician. The system will of
course only function properly if the preset satellites are actually receivable at your
current location. If this is not the case, the satellite can be aimed at via setting
„Search satellite" and the automatic search.
