and wait typically 5 minutes for the azimuth calibration to finish. A progress
bar is shown during calibration and a message is displayed when the calibration has
completed. In case of failure, see the table in the following section for a description of
error codes during calibration.
The following table shows the error codes that might be displayed during a calibration.

Important
The calibration function is not able to verify the correctness or precision of
the supplied longitude. It is therefore important to supply the correct
longitude including the first decimal.
1. Use Orbital position and NID if you want to use NID or orbital position or other KA band
satellites with DVB-S2 support. The DVB symbol rate must be >5 Ms/s. For NID use preferably
a unique NID (ONID). An azimuth calibration without NID can be useful in regions where the
satellite operators do not broadcast NID (US, China, Australia etc.). For NID=0 the NID is not
used when checking the satellite link. For NID 1 to 65535 the supplied NID is matched against
the Network ID broadcast by the satellite. For orbital position the supplied longitude is
matched with the orbital position broadcast by the satellite. Not all service providers
broadcast the orbital position.
Important
It is strongly recommended to verify the result of a calibration performed
with user defined data. This can be done by making a new calibration on a
different satellite and verify that the resulting Azimuth calibration value
differs less than one degree.
Error code
Explanation
1
The elevation of the selected satellite is too low. Select another satellite.
2
The elevation of the selected satellite is too high. Select another satellite.
4
The calibration values could not be saved. Possibly due to defective
hardware.
5
The antenna could not point with sufficient precision. Check that the
antenna is mounted in a stable way. Other possible causes might be electrical
or mechanical faults.
6
No signal received. Check that there is free line of sight. Try again or try with
another satellite.
7
RF setup error, e.g. missing or invalid TX frequency.
