Initial Operation of the BENZING M1
3.5.1
Without BENZING Station
When operating the BENZING M1 with the connected G2 Antennas, the PLB Antennas or
the EFA EXPRESS Antennas for the first time, these steps have to be followed.
• Make sure that all cables are connected correctly.
• When the power supply unit is connected to mains power the green LED display at the
plug of the M1 Fancier Cable will light up.
• The BENZING M1 starts up. The display
shows the BENZING logo and a start-up
display with information on the device and its versions.
• The BENZING M1 will search for connected loft antennas and shows the number of
antennas found on the display.
• After approx 10 seconds the start-up procedure is finished and the BENZING M1 is in the
initial status.
Note:
The BENZING M1 memorizes the found loft antennas. This means that those
antennas don’t have to be searched again at the next start-up of the BENZING M1, which
reduces the time needed for starting the BENZING M1.
The BENZING M1 recognizes automatically the connected loft antennas when
being turned on. In case another loft antenna is connected, the BENZING M1
must
be started anew
(disconnect and then reconnect power) as in this way the
antenna will be recognized.
3.5.2
With the BENZING Station
When connecting the BENZING M1 with the BENZING Station for the first time, the
message "Wrong BENZING Station" appears on the display of the BENZING M1. In order to
use the BENZING M1 with a BENZING Station, both devices must be linked first. Therefore
perform the following steps:
•
Open the menu of the BENZING M1 with the green button
"MENU".
•
Press the red button
"SYSTEM" to open the system menu.
• Choose the entry "BENZING Station" in the system menu and next the menu item "Link
Station" and confirm it with the button "YES."
