4.2. Search
4.2.1. Satellite search
The satellite search occurs via all frequencies of the selected satellite. Select the desired settings in the
order of the menu:
The selection of the individual parameters is carried out after the activation with the [OK] button and
then with the [►] or [◄] button.
We recommend to start the search from time to time, in order to find new programmes. Here, use the
{bold} displayed basic settings.
If you want to specifically search for an individual programme, you reduce the searching time by
restricting the known parameters, e.g. Low and 22.
(1) the desired satellite {ASTRA} > {Hotbird} > {Sat 3} > to {Sat 8}
(2) the band {Low/High} > {Low} > {High}
(3) the symbol rate {22+27.5} > {22} > {27.5} > {FREE}
(4) or a free symbol rate {XXXX}
(only possible, if the symbol rate has been changed to {FREE} under point (3)!)
(5) and start the search by pressing the [OK] button.
Choose, if you want to search for unencrypted or encrypted programmes or both: Selection
: „FREE“ or „CA“ or „FREE+CA.“
Note: Some of the encrypted programmes can always or at times be received as free programmes.
Special note: The unencrypted ORF programmes are found under ‚FREE!‘
4.2.2. Transponder search
In the transponder search, all programmes of a transponder are searched for.
(1) Satellite
(2) Frequency
(3) Polarisation
(4) Symbol rate
If the parameters (satellite, frequency, polarisation, symbol rate) of the searched programme are known,
then the transponder search can be used.
If e.g. a new programme is added to a known programme group, it is sufficient to set a programme from
this programme group before via the programme selection – the required parameters are taken over by
the transponder search.
If the message „No signal!“ appears in the „START“ line, reception is not possible. Please check the
parameters, satellite, frequency, polarisation and symbol rate once more.
The search starts, once „Signal!“ is displayed.
(5) Start the search with the [OK] button.
Encrypted programmes are indicated with „$.“ Programmes, which you do not want to include in the
programme pool, can be individually deleted by pressing the [TV] button.
New programmes are indicated with „+.“ These programmes are added to the programme pool by
pressing the [OK] button.
4.2.3. Manual entry (for experts)
If the satellite or transponder search does not find the desired programme, all important reception
parameters can be manually set. The manual entry is very helpful, when e.g. the desired programme is
known by the receiving data but is not continuously transmitted.
