Execute Channel search
Use the
buttons to select (yes or no) whether you wish to start a channel search. It is not
essential to start a channel seach; instead you can use the factory pre-programmed channels. However
the channels do change from time to time (e.g. their frequencies change), which the receiver does not
automatically detect, and can then be found only by performing a channel search.
If you selected “No”, you can press the
!
(green) button to skip directly to the next item of the First
Installation.
If you selected “Yes”, you can press the
button to progress to the next selection item.
Channel Search Mode
Use the
buttons to select whether you wish to scan “only free and scrambled”, “only free” or “only
scrambled” channels.
To view scrambled channels you need the appropriate CA (Conditional Access) module and a
valid smart card together with a valid subscription to a Pay-TV provider.
Press the
button to move to the next selection item.
Network Search
If you set the network search to “Off”, only the factory stored transponders of the satellites you previously
selected will be scanned for new and as yet unlisted channels.
If you set the network search to “On”, the transponder network enables additional transponders that
have not yet been stored to be located. They are then stored and scanned for new channels in the same
way as the existing transponders.
Press the
!
(green) button to start the channel search, or if you set the channel search to “No” you are
guided straight to the next item in the First Installation process.
When the search has been completed, you will see the following message (example):
