recommended that you contact your local installer.

factory, retune the decoder with these settings as follows:

Press OK.
A rotating bar on the decoder front panel indicator indicates that
it is searching for the default frequency. The decoder then
returns to the current service, and the Information Bar and Clock
are displayed for the preset period of time.
Reset to Factory Defaults
If difficulty is experienced in the functioning of the decoder, it may be
advisable to reset the factory defaults. This is achieved by selecting
the Reset Factory Defaults then pressing OK.
LoopThrough Mode
The Loop through Mode is used when the installation is using DiSEqC
control of LNBs. In a normal setup, it is not important whether this is
Enabled or Disabled. If DiSEqC LNB is used, consult your installer.
Signal Detection
This facility is used to help final alignment of the satellite dish and to
confirm that a signal is being received from the satellite.
NOTE: For LNB adjustment refer to the LNB installer. The
decoder signal detection facility is only useful for final
alignment of a dish that is already aimed roughly at the
satellite. If there is no signal the bars will not be
present.
