Channel Packages
Satellite operators can offer channel packages that
bundle free channels (free-to-air) and offer a sorting that
suits a country. Some satellites offer subscription
packages - a collection of channels you pay for.
If you choose a subscription package, the TV might ask
you to select a Quick or Full installation.
Select Quick to install the channels of the package only
or select Full to install the package and all other available
channels too. We recommend a Quick installation for
subscription packages. If you have additional satellites
that are not part of your subscription package, we
recommend a Full installation. All installed channels are
put in the channels list All.
Unicable Setup
The Unicable System
You can use a Single Cable system or Unicable system* to
connect the antenna dish to the TV. A Single Cable
system uses one cable to connect the satellite dish to all
satellite tuners in its system. A Single Cable system is
typically used in apartment buildings. If you use a
Unicable system, the TV will ask you to assign a user
band number and corresponding frequency during the
installation. You can install up to 4 satellites with
Unicable on this TV.
If you notice some missing channels after a Unicable
installation, another installation might have been done
at the same moment on the Unicable system. Do the
installation again to install the missing channels.
* Note: supports Unicable 1 (EN50494) and Unicable 2
(EN50607/JESS).
User Band Number
In a Unicable system, each connected satellite tuner must
be numbered (e.g. 0, 1, 2 or 3, etc.).
You can find the available user bands and their number
on the Unicable switchbox. User band is sometimes
shortened as UB. There are Unicable switchboxes that
offer 4 or 8 user bands. If you select Unicable in the
settings, the TV will ask you to assign the unique user
band number for each built-in satellite tuners. A satellite
tuner cannot have the same user band number as
another satellite tuner in the Unicable system.
User Band Frequency
Next to the unique user band number, the built-in
satellite receiver needs the frequency of the selected user
band number. These frequencies are mostly shown next
to the user band number on a Unicable switchbox.
Manual Channel Update
You can always start a channel update yourself.
To start a channel update manually:
1 - Select  Settings > Channels & Inputs >

Manual Installation
Manual Installation is intended for expert users.
You can use Manual Installation to quickly add new
channels from a satellite transponder. You need to know
the frequency and polarisation of the transponder. The
TV will install all channels of that transponder. If the
transponder was installed before, all its channels - the
former and the new ones - are moved to the end of the
channel list All.
You cannot use Manual installation if you need to
change the number of satellites. If this is needed, you
have to do a complete installation with Install Satellites.
To install a transponder:
1 - Select  Settings > Channels & Inputs >
Channels > Satellite Installation and press OK.
2 - Select Manual Installation and press  (right) to enter
the menu.
3 - If you have more than 1 satellite installed,
select LNB for which you want to add channels.
4 - Set the Polarisation you need. If you set the Symbol
Rate Mode to Manual, you can enter the symbol rate
in Symbol Rate manually.
5 - Press the Arrow / navigation keys to adjust the
frequency, and select Done.
6 - Select Search and press OK. The signal strength is
shown on screen.

transponder, select Store and press OK.
