Orbit Position
In the “Orbit Position“ menu entry, division of the satellites into orbit positions 1 to 4
is carried out.
This dividing up is necessary for the signal selection with the 22 kHz, tone-burst or
DiSEqC switching signal on reception from two (or more) satellites.
The receiver is pre-programmed in accordance with the following table.
Satellite Orbit position Switching signal 22 kHz
Astra 19.2° east 1 Off
Eutelsat 13° east 2 On
Eutelsat 10° east 3 Off
Eutelsat 16° east 4 On
Note
In the initial setup menu (DiSEqC menu, menu entry 22 kHz) the particular setting
is specified (frequency band
High/Low
or orbit position
Pos A/B
) for which
the 22 kHz switching signal is operative.
Default setting in initial setup menu:
22 kHz signal on for “
Pos. A/B
“.
Video deviation
The satellites transmit their signals with different video deviation, 16 or
25 MHz. The setting has an effect on the picture brightness.
Adjust the video deviation to obtain optimum picture brightness.
Decoder menu
You can attach a decoder to the decoder Scart socket for a Pay-TV programme
with video signal.
The receiver recognises Pay-TV programmes for which decoders deliver a switch-
ing signal (e.g. like Premiere) independently, and switches this signal through to
the TV Scart socket:
To ensure that the decoded Pay TV programme is also switched through to the
VCR
Scart socket to permit video recording, the video signal path needs to be
switched to external in the decoder menu. The following setting achieves this. The
same is applicable for decoders that do not deliver a switching voltage.
Call up the video setup menu
Select menu entry “Decoder menu“
Activate the “Decoder menu“.
Setting option:
Video signal path: Internal / External
Audio signal path: Internal / External
Set the video signal path to external
Set the audio signal path to external only if audio signal is encoded as well
Save the settings with the
key.
