Programming with the KC 3

Please note:

With the KC 3 it is not possible to set PID filter, Operator

After choosing the slot (chapter 4), the programming of
the Plug-in card can begin.

5.1 

Choosing parameters of the base unit / slot

5.1.1 

Adjusting the bus address of the base unit

If you connect several base units with the ASTRO bus
system, you have to make sure, that the connected base
units are adjusted on different bus addresses (delivery
state 241).

•  Select

line 3

with the cursor keys 

and 

•  Adjust the bus address with the cursor keys 

or 

in a range between 001 – 020, 241

•  Store changed addresses with „OK / Store“

5.1.2 

Choosing the slot

•   Select line 1 with the cursor keys

second line

. Here you can type in the requested SAT –

IF – input parameters.

5.2.1 

Adjusting the SAT – IF – input frequency

Line 2:

Type in the SAT – IF via keypad or change the frequency
in 1 MHz steps with the cursor keys 

or 

. Store the

changes with the “OK / Store” – button.

Please Note:

Frequency range of the tuner between 
950 MHz and 2150 MHz

The wrong input of the input frequency does not lead to an
error message. The frequency will be written in the plug-in
module after pressing the “OK/Store” button.
Then the tuner locks at the highest or lowest possible fre-
quency, which definitely leads to a malfunction of the module.
