Reception Adjustment - XSAT CD.TV410 Manual

Your CD.TV410 makes it easy to
control the quality of the reception and
helps you to point your dish in the
direction of a satellite, even in the case
of a motorised mounting, using a
DISEqC 1.2-compatible positioner.
However, we recommend that initial
settings are carried out by a profes-
sional, who will have all the equipment
and invaluable experience required for
this.
INFO BUTTON
To control program reception quality,
press the Info button. Information on the
current program is displayed, including
the reception level and the digital
signal/noise ratio.
If the signals are weak, this could be
because your dish is badly positioned.
Nevertheless, check the reception of
other programs before changing your
dish positioning.
CONFIGURATION / INSTALLATION
POSITIONING ANTENNA MENU
This menu can be accessed from the
"Configuration" menu and is useful in
a number of ways:
- Standard dish: first installation or if
a violent wind has moved the positioning
of the dish.
- Motorised dish: first installation or to
add new satellites to your receiver; this
screen displays a graphic which repre-
sents the reception level and digital
signal/noise ratio.
ADJUSTING RECEPTION
You receive digital signals
You must tell your receiver which
transponder these readings should
be taken from (frequency, polarization
and symbol rate). This depends on the
satellite. For example, you can choose:
Hotbird 13° E 12245 H 27500
Astra 19,2° E 12402 V 27500
You can use the
different operating modes. The first thing
to do is to position your dish. Use a
plumb line to check that the mounting is
vertical. Adjust the elevation by following
the instructions.
Access the "Configuration/Installa-
tion/Positioning antenna" menu, choose
"Scan with manual stop" mode. Position
your dish to obtain maximum reception
level and signal/noise ratio. Then lock the
dish in position.
Dish rotation
If your mounting is motorised, it can
be controlled using a number of buttons.
The
West or to the East. To stop rotation,
