The available options are:
OFF – Frequency scan is disabled.
•
BAND – Frequency scan is enabled. This mode allows scanning all bands.
•
+/-6 [MHz] – Frequency scan is enabled. This mode allows scanning a selected
•
frequency range if the stream's frequency is unknown. This feature is especially useful for
low symbol rates signals (less then 10Msym/s). All reception parameters must be set,
including symbol rate and frequency. When operating the scanning, the ProView 2900
searches for a valid signal within a range of 12MHz (configured frequency ±6MHz). The
ProView 2900 locks on the first detected valid signal, and automatically sets the
configured frequency accordingly.
Acquisition Mode
6.2.2.16.
The Acquisition Mode scanning function sets the acquisition mode for the LNB local oscillator
type; Range or Timing.

The available options are: Range and Timing.
Range
•
High acquisition range mode is used mainly for wide symbol rates usually in full
transponder applications. In this mode the auto search range is -15% - +15% of the
Symbol Rate.
Timing
•
Low acquisition range is used mainly for high sensitivity in order to receive signals with
low power. This mode is used mainly for DSNG applications. In this mode the auto
search range is -8% - +8% of the Symbol Rate.
