CHANNEL SEARCH (CHANNEL SCAN)
The
buttons allow you to select different sets of parameters for the scan.
Satellite
Use the
buttons to select the satellite on which the transponder you wish to scan is located.
Make sure your reception system is aligned to the selected satellite. You can scan only one transponder
at a time. If you wish to scan several transponders on a satellite, you should start an automatic scan
of the transmitting satellite.
Press the

When you have made your settings, use the
buttons to select “Start Scan” and press the
button
to start scanning. You can break off the scan prematurely at any time by pressing the
