ALIGNMENT (SATELLITE SEARCH)
The antenna is aligned automatically. After the UFS 740 has been switched on, the turntable automatically
moves to the last channel received and the associated satellite position (e.g. ARD/ASTRA).
This works because every satellite broadcasts its own identi cation signal, which is automatically identi ed
by the turntable.
The satellite search is started when you select a channel. If the turntable has not yet saved the position of
the satellite, you will see the following display when you select a channel (example):
If the vehicle is not on supports during the search process and people are moving
around inside it, there is a risk that movement of the vehicle will mean that the satellite
is not found.
As soon as the turntable has found the correct satellite, automatic ne-tuning is carried out (and if the signal
level is suf cient, the satellite position is immediately saved by the turntable). The screen may “freeze”
during ne-tuning – this is determined by the system.
The set position (of the satellite that was found) is saved and the desired channel appears on the TV
screen.
