Configuration of V16 and VMS 616
Apply mains voltage and connect KC 3.
The following display appears:
Line 2 displays the software status of the mainboard
processor. Pressing "1" selects German.
Select the next menu with the arrow key. The V16
parameters are displayed.
4.1
Setting VMS 616 mode
The internal SAT VMS 616 distribution board has two
operating modes:
Standard mode:
Inputs 11-14 can be switched via software to all 16 out-
puts (card 1 tuner A to card 8 tuner B).
This mode is always recommended if not more than four
different polarization levels for all installed conversion
cards are required.
Expanded mode:
Inputs 11, 12, 15 and 16 can be switched via software
to the first four outputs (card 1 tuner A to card 2 tuner
B). Inputs 11-14 can be switched via software to the last
12 outputs (card 3 tuner A to card 8 tuner B).

which the remote power supply can be activated
for each of the inputs. Activated remote power
supplies are indicated by adjacent LEDs (Fig. 6).
SAT inputs for which LNB remote power supply can
be activated:
inputs 11, 13, 15 and 16.

3.5 Remote supply voltage on HF output
If an ASTRO network (U901 or VZN9) is employed
for the active signal consolidation of multiple V16s,
the power supply required for this device can be
provided by a V16 base unit. Located on the main-
board at slot one is a jumper with which the remo-
te supply voltage can be activated for the HF out-
put. The activated remote supply voltage is indica-
ted by an adjacent LED (Fig. 7).
