5.4.2.1
(CONFIG:) Rx
Alpha Rolloff: .20
Spectrum Invert:
When in DVB-S2 mode only: To set the expected filter Rx Alpha Rolloff (α) of the carrier, on
the top line select .20 (20%), .25 (25%), or .35 (35%) using the
selection is 0.20 (20%).
The Rx Alpha Rolloff (α) dictates how fast the spectral edges of the carrier are attenuated beyond
the 3 dB bandwidth. With 20% rolloff the edge falls off more quickly than with 25% and 35%.
Note: This menu is not valid in DVB-S mode, where the Rx Alpha Rolloff (α) is fixed at 35%.
To set Rx Spectrum Inversion, use the the ◄ ► arrow keys to move to the Spectrum Invert
operation on the bottom line, then set operation as On or Off using the
Once the Alpha Rolloff and Rx Spectrum Inversion settings are made, press ENTER.
