What is RAPS?

The receiver is preset for the receipt of Astra 19,2°, Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° east
and Türksat 42° with the common receiving installations. You only have to
connect, switch on and watch TV. But this receiver is able to do more. It has
the automatical programming system RAPS, which we recommend to use so
that you always receive the updated channels.
Today you can receive more than 1,200 TV and radio channels via the most
important satellite system Astra 19,2° and Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° east and
Turksat 42°.
Modern satellite receivers have stored all important channels at delivery
status. But what is later? Nearly every week there are new interesting
channels. To store these new channels in the existing set top box is not so
easy for most of the users. And furthermore the new channels will usually be
added on the last place so that the viewer has to reprogram his list time-
consuming.
RAPS gives the viewer and the listener an easy possibility to be always up-to-
date. RAPS relieves you of the task of programming. And this without any
additional costs. You can configure certain standard settings like country or
preferred regional channels, you can also hide foreign languages or certain
channels like erotic channels.
Whenever you switch on the receiver, RAPS searches automatically for new
channels. This lasts only a few seconds. If there are new channels, these will
be added automatically to the channel list and will be shown on the screen as
new channels. If channels will be shut down irrecoverably, they will be deleted
automatically. The new channels will be sorted into logical blocks, this is why
also some areas can remain free. For this procedure it is necessary to
overwrite the general channel list. All changes which you have made by hand
meanwhile will be deleted then.
But for all that it is no problem if you want to program channels by yourself.
You can store an own channel list as favourite list, and favourite lists will not
