9 Operation with a rotating antenna (DiSEqC 1.2)
Your digital receiver is equipped for use in conjunction with a rotating
antenna. You may control a suitable motor by means of the co-axial
cable, using the DiSEqC control (DiSEqC-Level 1.2).
>
Call up the menu Antenna Settings as described in Point
6.4 (Fig. 9-1), and switch the DiSEqC control (Point 6.4.1)
on.
>
Now use the arrow keys up/down to select the DiSEqC
position (e.g. A/B 3) to which you wish to allocate the rotating
antenna motor.
>
Pressing OK will open a selection window for the Satellite
resp. the Antenna motor . (Fig. 9-2)
>
Use the arrow keys up/down to mark the line Antenna
motor, and confirm by pressing OK.
>
Confirm the message (Fig. 9-3) regarding the setting of
easterly and westerly limits by pressing OK.
9.1 Easterly and Westerly limits
To avoid mechanical damage to the antenna dish or the LNC, you
must first specify the maximum easterly and westerly limits for the
antenna rotation. If there are any obstructions (e.g. walls, chimnies)
in the rotating radius of the dish, this must definitely be considered
when setting the East-West limits.
If there are no obstructions in the rotating radius of the dish, set the
limits so the dish can be rotated a little beyond what is required for
the outermost satellite you wish to receive.

9.1.1 Deleting existing limits

First you should delete any limit values that may have been stored.
>
Use the arrow keys left/right to mark the column LNC
Test.
>
Now use the arrow keys up/down in the line Rotating
antenna, and mark the field Continue.
>
Confirm by pressing OK.
The menu used for setting the rotating antenna will now be
displayed. (Fig. 9-4)
>
Press the yellow function key Actions to open an
additional window. (Fig. 9-5)
