Operation on one Antenna Connection
To enable you to utilise all the reception and recording properties of
your UFD 580 twin-DVR Sat receiver, such as
1. recording one programme and at the same time viewing any
other programme or zapping through the programmes, and
2. recording two different programmes at the same time,
the two tuner inputs of the Sat receiver must each be supplied with a
dedicated satellite signal from the antenna system/Sat outlet.
The receiver tuner inputs are factory preset on the installation menu
for “#1 & #2” mode, meaning for two separate Sat antennas.
If you only have one antenna connection available, we recommend
you interconnect the output of tuner 1 and the input of tuner 2 by a
coaxial cable with F connectors.
Then “Loop” mode must be selected on the installation menu for the
tuner input.
You will find the “Tuner input” option by pressing the
button. Then
select “Installation”, “LNB configuration”, and confirm the satellite you
are receiving by pressing
. You can then make the settings here,
though a restriction on this is that with tuner 2 you can only receive the
additional programmes of the plane currently set by tuner 1 (e.g.
Horizontal High).
Note: This will only work when receiving one satellite, not in multifeed
reception!
If only tuner 1 is connected (with no connection to tuner 2), the setting
“#1” must be selected for the tuner input. You can then have only the
possibilities offered by a normal “single” receiver available to you.
If this setting is not made, malfunctions will occur and the following
message will be displayed:
Weak signal or no signal!
