Most users want to do a quick check before reading all the details on the
receiver’s capabilities, so the following should get you video and audio. Please,
in the near future, read the remainder of the instructions to find out about the
great features hidden in the menus.
1. Rack mount the unit or set on bench top with air clearance.
2. Hook up an L-band signal to F connector(s) at Port 1,2,3 or 4. We
recommend C-band Vertical be connected to #1, C-Band Horizontal to #2,
Ku-band Vertical be connected to #3, Ku-Band Horizontal to #4 to maximize
the preprogrammed database which assumes these connections. Hook up
outputs as needed.
3. CHECK THAT RECEIVER IS SET TO 115 or 220 VAC as required in your
facility. Connect power cord to receiver, then to wall. Display messages or a
Port LED lighting shows you are powered up.
4. After front panel display completes startup messages, rotate MENU knob to
show #1 ACTIVE CHANNEL in top line of the display. Press EDIT and rotate
SELECT knob to obtain the satellite format you desire (e.g. ‘C-BAND’). Press
RIGHT button, then rotate SELECT knob to chose the transponder you
desire. Press SAVE to capture the changes. You should have video and
audio. If you are using a satellite that is not in the database, select one
similar (i.e., Ku band type) and edit downlink frequency, as in 6, below.
5. If you are not receiving video and audio, consider reading the entire manual
now. However, you can rotate the MENU knob and return to ACTIVE
CHANNEL again. If satellite and transponder are not those desired, repeat
above entry process. If satellite and transponder are correct, go to 6.
6. If theLED in EDIT button is on, press EDIT to turn it off. Rotate SELECT
Knob. Confirm that the parameters in each menu are correct for your input
port selection, polarity, LO, downlink frequency, etc. There are twelve sub-
menu pages to check!! In a sub-menu page, press EDIT, and move cursor
with LEFT or RIGHT BUTTON, then rotate SELECT knob. The receiver will
make the changes as you input them, real time. To back out, press EDIT
again. Press SAVE
once to keep the change. To keep from messing up the
factory fresh database, press SAVE only once and press EDIT key when the
screen asks if you wish to save the change to the database.
7. Check that the LNB is powered from your facility; the receiver comes with the
LNB power blocked; rotate the Menu knob to show Menu #5-1, RECEIVER
CONFIG. LNBV will be OFF. To change, press EDIT, RIGHT button, rotate
the SELECT knob, then SAVE. This switch is global and supercedes all other
receiver settings including the LNB setting recorded in ACTIVE CHANNEL
and DATABASE SETUP.
If still no video and audio, double check the above, then read the rest of the
manual or give the folks at Standard a call.
