22 kHz switch-over
If is possible to select for every programme posi-
tion in the "Programme position setup" menu
whether the (static) 22 kHz signal is to be de-acti-
vated (option "–") or activated (option "~").
The (static) 22 kHz signal can be used for the fol-
lowing switching functions:
1
If you wish to receive the channels from 2 satellites
with 2 aerials (see figure) or with one aerial having
two LNC's (no figure), the 22 kHz signal can be
used for the control of a 22 kHz relay which then
switches between the two LNC's (see figure).

With a universal LNC, the 22 kHz signal switches
between the high and low frequency range of one
satellite. For the Astra satellite, the high frequency
range is only used for digital reception.
LNC control with DiSEqC
In addition, the future-oriented digital LNC control
by means of the so-called DiSEqC signall (Digital
Satellite Equipment Control) is used. In this case,
the connected aerial system must be able to pro-
cess the DiSEqC signal and be suited for the special
application.
With the DiSEqC control, 22 kHz signals with a cer-
tain pulse sequence are output which contain the
entire information required for the LNC control.
ToneBurst (Mini-DiSEqC)
Following the DiSEqC signal, a so-called ToneBurst
(also called Mini-DiSEqC signal) is output. This sig-
nal contains the satellite selection parameter (A/B).
It is therefore also possible to use a ToneBurst
switch to switch over between the assigned LNC's.
If the high frequency range is selected, the static
22 kHz signal will be output in addition to the
DiSEqC signal and the ToneBurst signal.
This allows for the reception of the high (option "~")
and low (option "–") frequency range of two satel-
lites when installing two universal LNCs (see
figure).
The two signals can also be used for the reception
of one frequency range of each of four satellites.

Selecting a satellite channel
1
Use the numeric keys on the remote control unit if
you wish to directly enter the number of the desired
programme position (multi-digit numbers must be
entered within 3 seconds).
Use the ] | keys on the remote control unit or
2
the
keys on the receiver to step through the
programme positions (when pressing and holding
down a key, the programme positions scroll at high
1
speed).
Stand-by
1
Use the
b
key on the remote control unit or the
key on the front panel of the receiver to switch the
receiver to stand-by.

2
Use the same keys to switch the receiver on from
stand-by with the last selected programme position
(last station memory).
3
Use the ] | keys on the remote control unit or
the
keys on the receiver to switch the receiver
on again from stand-by.
4
Using the remote control unit's numeric keypad,
you can also directly select the desired programme
position from stand-by.
Locking the receiver
With the receiver lock option "

setup" menu, you can lock all receiver functions
(see description of the "System setup" menus in the
"Settings" chapter).

Favourite programmes
To have a fast access to your favourite program-
mes, you can mark these programmes.
1
In normal mode, the ] | keys switch to the next
higher or next lower programme position.
In favourite mode, the ] | keys will only switch
to programme positions which have been marked
before as favourite programmes. Not marked pro-
gramme positions are skipped. The symbol "
(
"
appears in front of the programme position
number.

If you use the numeric keys to directly select a pro-
gramme position (also a favourite programme posi-
tion), or if you switch to stand-by, the favourite
3
mode is automatically de-activated.
To mark a programme as favourite programme,
select the corresponding programme position and
call up the "Programme position setup" menu. Then
select
the

in
the
menu
(see description of the "Programme position setup"
menu).

sockets.
With the
