  • Page 4: Introduction

    Your Oyster Vision II is an intelligent receiving system for satellite television which is able to automatically align itself to a preset satellite as long as the receiving system is within the cover area of this particular satellite.

  • Page 5: The First Steps

    The first steps We have included separate instructions for the assembly and first start-up as well as the necessary wiring work of your Oyster Vision in the Assembly Instructions. All steps from unpacking through the assembly and the connection up to the first switching-on together with various basic adjustments are described there.
  • Page 6 For reasons of operating reliability, please unplug the operating control only while your Oyster Vision is in a standby mode. You recognize this by the fact that no text is shown on the display.

  • Page 7: Switching On And Off

    Switching on and off The operation of your Oyster Vision is very simple. You only have to press the key , and your Oyster Vision will immediately start up. Please do not forget, however, to switch on your satellite receiver and your TV set or flat-panel display.

  • Page 8: The Overview Menu

    The Overview menu Every time your Oyster Vision is activated and has currently no particular actions to perform, as for example extending or retracting, automatic search, or a satellite change, you have direct access to the Overview menu from which you can initiate all actions or also branch out to the Main menu.

  • Page 9: Automatic Search

    Automatic search After switching on the system with the key , the antenna extends and aligns itself first to the position on which a satellite had been received the last time. If no satellite can be received there, the system begins automatically with the fully automatic search for the preset satellite (factory pre-set to ASTRA 1).

  • Page 10: Manual Search

    Manual search The manual search serves predominantly for fine-adjustment of a found satellite under unfavourable reception situations. If you want to receive a new satellite which has not yet been stored as a search satellite in the controller, this can be likewise set up with the manual search function. First, switch your receiver to a pre-programmed programme place which is broadcast by the desired satellite.

  • Page 11: Satellite Change

    Satellite change In principle, a satellite change can of course be performed when you enter another satellite in the menu option “Search satellite” and then select the fully automatic search function. For fast, comfortable turning to another satellite, however, the so-called “fast satellite change” was implemented in addition to the DiseqC system.
  • Page 12 This satellite change takes some seconds after a fully automatic search. If a satellite had already been selected before and no fully automatic search had been started since that time as well as the vehicle was not moved, then the adjustment happens substantially faster. After renewed retracting and extending of the system, however, the preset “search satellite”...

  • Page 16 The lower the elevation of the satellite in the sky, the lower the reception head (LNB) will move over your roof during the satellite search. If there are any roof attachments within the range of rotation, this could lead to a collision and thus to the damage of your Oyster Vision or to the parts concerned.
  • Page 17 Submenu DiseqC: DiseqC: monitor You can use this function in order to find out which DiseqC commands your receiver sends with a programme change and whether it produces standard commands at all. It thus offers you assistance in order to correctly program both your receiver and your Oyster Vision.
  • Page 18 Keep in mind: You must program both your Oyster Vision and your receiver correctly and in the same way in order to be able to use the DiseqC functions successfully. Please absolutely consult the operating instructions of your receiver for the programming of the receiver. SAT position Assignment of satellites to “position 1”...

  • Page 19: The Diseqc System

    The DiseqC system What is DiseqC? With the increasing variety of television satellites, the desire arose to receive programmes from different satellites. For the selection of the desired satellite, among other things the DISEqC system was developed which uses a switching signal that allows the user to receive several satellites with only one receiver by simple selection of the appropriate TV programme.
  • Page 20 Programming: Precondition for a successful configuration is that programmes of the desired, receivable satellites are already stored in your receiver. Should this not be the case then you must store the broadcast transmitters first. To do this, look up the appropriate satellite with your Oyster Vision by selection of the appropriate search satellite (cf.
