1 General

SetEditMX40 is a program to change the settings (program sequence, names of channels etc.) of the Smart MX40 and compatible digital satellite receivers. You can easily make your own channel lists, edit them, print them and write them into your receiver. You can enter new channels or new transponders, edit, delete and save them, change the names of channels, sort, search, copy and paste channels. With SetEdit you can edit settings of different receivers, exchange channels between settings files of different receivers or convert a settings file of one format into another (e.g. SetEditDVB2000 into SetEditMX40). If you have other receivers you can add new "modules". The settings are read from the receiver and written into the receiver via the RS232 interface with a null modem cable. With this program you can't change the receiver firmware; to do this, please use the tools you can find on the Smart homepage. In the following guide you will find a step by step description of how to use this program. In the other chapters there is a short description of all functions divided in file, channel, satellite, transponder and favourite list functions and the configuration.

2 Installation

System requirements: PC with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP, one free serial port and 20 MB of free disc space. If you like to install SetEdit for the first time, please start the file SetEditMX40_installation_en.exe.
In this window you can select, if you get in addition to the program a desktop shortcut and an entry in the start menu. Furthermore you can select that after the installation SetEdit is launched and/or the SetEdit directory is shown in the explorer. When you click on "Next", you can select the installation directory. The installation contains the program itself, some pictures and a sample settings file. If you already have a SetEdit version and simply want to upgrade to SetEditMX40, please copy the file SetEditMX40.dll in the existing SetEdit directory. In your SetEdit directory, you will now find the DLLs that are the modules for the different receiver types. There are no changes made to the Windows system files. You will also find the file SetEditMX40.ini in this directory. Your personal configuration is saved in this file. To uninstall SetEditMX40 simply delete all these files. If you have more than one receiver (with the right DLL modules), you can decide with which type of SetEdit the program should start. You just have to change the name of the exe file. Example: If you start SetEditMX40.exe after the installation of SetEditMX40_installation_en.exe the program will start as a Smart MX 40 editor. If you change the name of the SetEditMX40.exe file into SetEditDVB2000.exe, the program will start as DVB2000 editor. Of course you can open additional SetEditMX40 if required.

3 Step by step

I assume that the program has been installed on your PC as described in chapter 2. Also it is assumed that you are using SetEditMX40 for the first time. In the following I will describe how to transfer the settings from the receiver to the PC and back (chapter 3.a and 3.e). By means of examples you will see how to get order in your settings (chapter 3.b), how to put channels into the favourite lists (chapter 3.c), how to work with the transponder menu (chapter 3.g), how to enter new channels by hand (chapter 3.g), how to handle the peculiarities of German Premiere World channels (Formula 1, soccer, pay-per-view) (chapter 3.g) how to adjust settings from other sources to your requirements (chapter 3.h and 3.i) and how to convert one settings format into another (chapter 3.i).

Please select the item "delete" in this menu and the selected channel will be deleted from your settings. If you delete a channel within the favourite list, this channel is only removed from the FAV list but not deleted from the main list. Note: There is no undo function yet, so be careful. To delete a channel, you can also select the channel and then hit the Del key on your keyboard. To delete multiple channels please click for example on channel 5, then press the shift key and keep it pressed and then click on channel 7. The channels 5 to 7 are now selected. Now you can delete these channels as described above. To select channels that are not consecutive (e.g. the channels 5, 20 and 39) please click on the first channel (here channel 5), then press the Ctrl key on your keyboard, keep this key pressed and then click on the other channels you like to delete. Now assume we want to move a channel, e.g. ZDF to position 2. Note: You can show your channel lists in original order or sorted by alphabet, frequency or polarity. Moving channels is easier when the channel list is shown in its original order. If the channel list is shown in alphabetical order and you move a channel, only the channel number will change but not the position of the channel in the channel list (the name is still the same). To show the channel list in original order, please click with the right mouse button into the channel list and select from the menu item "View sorted by" the option "Original".
To change the viewing mode of the channel lists you can also click on the letters "O" (original), "N" (Name), "F" (frequency) or "P" (polarity) in the border of the channel lists. First we have to find out the position of the channel ZDF at the moment. To find all channels you first have to click on the satellite "all" to see really all channels, independent of the satellite the channels belong to. Then you can search for ZDF by entering the first letters of the channel name. Please click anywhere in the channel list and hit the "Z" key on your keyboard, now all channels whose names begin with "Z" are selected. Now hit the "D" key on your keyboard. Now all channels beginning with "ZD" are selected. You can do this of course with the third, fourth letter etc. If you wait for more than three seconds between two letters a new search is started, so that the last letter entered is taken as the first letter of the name that is searched. You can also use the "find channels" function to find channels by name. Open the channel menu and select the function "find channels" from this menu. You will get this window:

You can choose whether you want to search on all satellites or only on the actually selected satellites. Click on the field beneath "all satellites" to search on all satellites (if you have selected "all" in the satellite list you won't see this option because all satellites are searched anyway). If you now enter "ZDF" in the field "Name" you will see in the list above all channels whose names begin with "zdf", e.g. the channel ZDFtheaterkanal. If you click on the white square to the left of the text "substring" you will see all channels that include the entered letters as a part of the channel name (beginning, middle or end, upper/lowercase is ignored). If you enter for example the word "sport" the channel "Eurosport" is found too. Now you can move channels from this list to another position in the channel list or assign them to another satellite, transponder or a favourite list. The channels will not be removed from the find list, but when you click on such a channel you will see that the new satellite, transponder or the new favourite list is now marked in grey. Within this find function you can also delete channels. Simply select the channel in the list of the find function and hit the Delete key on your keyboard. Now you have found for example ZDF. There are several ways to move the channel. The first way is to move the channel by drag & drop: click with the left mouse button on the channel you want to move, keep the mouse button pressed and drag the channel to the position you like to have it. The channel will be placed in front of the position the mouse is on. To drag a channel on the last position in the list, you have to drag it behind the last channel. You can also move the channels with the arrow keys of your keyboard. Please select the channel(s) you want to move, then press the Ctrl-key on your keyboard and keep this key pressed. Now you can move the selected channel(s) with the arrow keys on your keyboard. If you press the key "Home" or "End" while the Ctrl key is pressed you move the selected channel(s) to the beginning or the end of the list.

With both methods described above you can move of course more than one channel. Another possibility is to move a channel directly to a position (e.g. channel 20 to position 5). Please select the channel, then click with the right mouse button in the channel list and select from the channel menu you get the function "Move to", the following dialogue appears:
Here you can enter the channel number you like to move the selected channel to (in this example 5). The selected channel will be moved now in front of the channel that was previously at this position. If for example KABEL1 had a channel number higher than 5 before, it will be moved to channel 5. If the channel had a lower channel number before (e.g. 3) the channel will be moved in front of the channel that was at position 5. Because one channel is now missing in the list (the channel you are moving) all channels are moved up one position (i.e. to lower numbers), so in this case your channel will be moved to position 4. Especially if you use the drag & drop method it is often a problem that not all channels can be seen on the screen, so you have to scroll. If you want to move a channel from position 500 to 10 you have to keep the mouse button pressed while you move to position 10. If you move the mouse some pixels up and down at the border of the list, then the list will scroll in this direction. There are some functions that make moving channels more comfortable. For example you can hide one of the lists (TV or radio) to have more space for the channels. You can even hide the satellites, transponders, the favourite lists and the data window. Please call the channel menu and select on "Show" what you want to see (TV, Radio, TV and Radio, "Show only channels" or "All lists").
If you double click on the name of a channel list the other list will be hidden.
With a second double click on the name you will see both lists again. When you click on the letter "C" in the border of the channel lists, the satellites, transponders, the favourite lists and the data window are hidden. When you click on the letter "A", you will see all lists again. Another function that makes moving by drag & drop easier is the "split" function. Please click with the right mouse button in the channel list to open the channel menu and select the function "Split" from the popup menu.
All channel lists (depending on what is shown/hidden) are now shown twice. It is of course the same list, but you have two different views of it. Changes in one of these lists will affect the other list too. You can move channels from the upper list to the lower list, because it is the same list but from

different points of view, the entry is changed in both windows. If you make many changes to the channels, please remember to save from time to time. To do this hit the "file" button. From the file menu please select the item "save" to save the file. If you want to keep your original file and save the file with a different file name, you should use the "save as" function in the file menu. Enter the file name and click on the "save" button. With the function "Sort" in the channel list menu, you have several possibilities to sort the channels.
Contrary to the function "View sorted by" the channels are not only shown in a different order, they also get another channel number. You can sort the complete channel list by satellites. This may be helpful if you have got a motorized dish. If you have sorted your channel list by genres for example, your dish would always move between the different satellite positions, when you zap in your channel list. If you want to sort channels alphabetically, by frequency or polarity, you first have to mark the channels you want to sort.

3.c Favourite lists

The Smart MX 40 receivers have eight favourite lists for your favourite channels. The advantage of favourite lists is that you can put a channel in more than one favourite list without the necessity to create a duplicate of this channel (with the consequence that one channel has two different channel numbers). This can be useful for families because every family member can create his/her own favourite list. To assign one or more channels to a favourite list simply move the selected channels by drag & drop on the name of the favourite list.
To remove one or more channels from a favourite list you first have to select the FAV list you want to remove channels from. Then select the channels you like to remove and select "Delete" from the channel menu or hit the "Del" key on your keyboard. When you delete channels from a favourite list, the channels are only removed from this favourite list but not from the main list. You can also use the "Mark as" function in the popup menu of the channel list to assign one or more channels to a FAV list or remove them from all FAV lists. Channels that are in a favourite list are marked in the channel list with a darker background colour. To change this colour please see chapter 5.b. Within a FAV list you can change the order independent of the order in the main list. If you change the channel order within the FAV list by using the drag & drop function you will only change the order within the FAV list but not the order of the main list. In opposite the order within the FAV list is unchanged when you change the order within the main list. To change the name of a FAV list please make a double click on the FAV name, you will get the following window:

3.f Print or export settings
You can print your settings. To do this click on the "File" button and select from the file menu the function "Print". You get the following dialogue:
First you have to select if your printout should be sorted by channel numbers or by transponders (frequencies). If you print your channels in number sequence, you can also select whether you want to print all channels, only the selected ones or only the unskipped channels. There are some options. You can choose if you also want to print the frequency, the satellite, the PIDs, if the channel is scrambled or if the channel is in a FAV list, etc. Finally you can enter the Font height for your printout. Then please hit the button "Print". A printing dialogue will appear, whose layout depends on the printer you have installed. With the "export" function you can export your settings to a plain ASCII file that can be opened with Word or Excel or other applications. The tab character (0x09) separates the different parameters. Besides this the export works the same as printing. Select "Export" in the file menu, then you select the optional parameters as described above and click on the button "Export". You get a window where you can enter the filename and select the directory of the exported file.
3.g Using the transponder functions and entering new channels by hand
There is a short summary of the transponder functions in chapter 5.e. Possibly when you read the settings from your receiver you wondered about channels with strange names and that some channels were missing in your list (e.g. German Premiere, soccer, Formula 1 or pay-per-view channels). Channels that share place (like the German ARTE/Kinderkanal) can only be found in the receiver if they are active at the time you make the channel search. Some of the Premiere Direkt, soccer and Formula 1 channels are found, but not with the right name. In the following you find a description how to enter new transponders (and channels) and how to change wrong transponder data. In the Internet there are sites (e.g. www.lyngsat.com) where you can find all channel settings (including the missing pay-per-view or soccer channels). In the following you find an explanation how to enter channels and transponders from such lists by hand. Suppose you discover on www.lyngsat.com that on satellite X a new transponder is active, but your receiver can't find this transponder at the moment, for example because it does not send at the moment (feed) or your antenna is not aligned to this satellite.

Here we see that transponder 12656 horizontal is new and one scrambled TV channel (Anem, the orange background shows you that the channel is scrambled) and two audio channels (B2-92 with two different audio PIDs) are active on this transponder. Now you have the possibility to create a new transponder first and then enter the channel on this transponder. Or you can directly enter a new channel with the right transponder data on the satellite. Both methods may be useful, so both will be described in the following: To create a new transponder, you first have to select the satellite of this transponder. Then you click with the right mouse button in the transponder list and select in the transponder menu the function "New" -> "Transponder". You see the following window:
For the example mentioned above you enter 12656 for the frequency and HOR for the polarity. The symbol rate in this case is 2963. In this example the FEC is 3/4. The green numbers in the Lyngsat chart are the NETwork ID and the TS ID (here NET ID = 0 and TS ID = 176). These IDs are not used in SetEditMX40. Furthermore you can enter a name for the transponder. Please confirm with OK then you will find the new transponder at the end of the transponder list. Now you can enter the new TV and radio programs on this transponder.
To do this select the new transponder and click with the right mouse button in the now empty channel list and select the function "new" from the channel menu you get. You get the following window:
You can also click with the right mouse button in the transponder list (the new transponder has to be selected too) and with "New" you can select the function "TV channel on this transponder" or "radio channel on this transponder". You will get the same window. The correct transponder is already entered. If you want to enter a channel directly, please select the satellite for this channel, click with the right mouse button in the channel list and select the function "New" from the menu you get. You will get the same window as with the other method again, except that in this case the transponder data has to be entered in the fields "Frequency", "Polarity", "Symbol rate" and "FEC". In the field "Name" you can enter the name of the channel (here "Anem"). Then you have to enter the PIDs and the channel ID. The TV channel "Anem" for example (see list above) has the video PID 4194 and the audio PID 4195. The channel ID (service ID) is 1 and the PCR PID is as a rule identical to the video PID, so don't forget to enter it! For the Audio (radio) channels of course no Video PID is given. Usually you use the VPID 1FFF (hexadecimal) or 8191 (decimal) to indicate that this PID is not used. The text PID is used for the teletext information. The PMT PID (Program Map Table) identifies and indicates the locations of the streams that make up each service, and the location of the Program Clock Reference fields for a service. If you don't find these PIDs, you can enter 1FFF (hexadecimal) or 8191 (decimal) instead, i.e. "not used". For "normal" channels you don't need these PIDs. When you have entered all the parameters please click on OK and the new channel will appear at the end of your channel list. As soon as a satellite has one channel it is shown as being active (appears in green). Satellites that have no channel have a white background. (You can change these colours in the configuration.) Note: In some lists the PIDs are given in decimal notation, in others in hexadecimal notation (see chapter 8). You have to be aware of that when you enter the PIDs. In the configuration menu and in the channel data window you can specify if you want to see/enter the PIDs in decimal or hexadecimal form.

A second window with the chosen settings file will be opened. In the same way you can open a third or even more settings files. Each of these lists is equivalent. Every format (Smart MX 40, DVB2000, SatcoDX, Lyngsat or other added formats) has its own symbol. SatcoDX and Lyngsat files are only Internet lists, so the functions "Read from receiver" and "Write into receiver" do not exist for these formats. Now you can easily transfer one or more channels by drag & drop from one window into another or "Copy" and "Paste" them with the corresponding functions from the channel lists menu. Note: As the Smart MX 40 receivers only support digital channels you can't import analogue channels. It may happen, that there are analogue channels for example in a SatcoDX file. In the configuration of the SatcoDX settings file you can choose, if you only want to see analogue or digital channels or both. In the different settings formats there are different channel parameters. If a parameter only exists in the destination list but not in the source list (e.g. there are no Text PIDs in the SatcoDX files), a standard value will be taken for this parameter. You can also drag and drop groups of channels (for example entire transponder with all its channels) from one window into another. Source: Channel list: The selected channels will be transferred. All other lists (satellites, providers, labels, transponders, etc): All channels of the selected list will be transferred.
Find window (e.g. "Find channels", "Find duplicates"): the selected channel will be transferred. Destination: Channel list: The imported channels will be pasted at the location the cursor is on at the moment you paste the channels. Sometimes it is only possible to paste a channel, if a definitely assignment (e.g. to a satellite) is possible in the destination list. In a SetEditMX40 settings list a satellite has to be selected, if you want to paste a channel. If the entry "All" is selected in the satellite list, you can't import channels from another window. Transponder: A transponder is always definitely assigned to a satellite. So if you assign a channel from another window to a transponder, these channels will be assigned to the satellite of this transponder and will get the transponder data of this transponder. If you drag and drop a transponder from one window into the transponder list of another window, this transponder with all its channels will be added as a new transponder. Note: If you import a transponder from another window, this transponder will be added to the satellite that is selected. If "All" is selected in the satellite list, the new transponder will be added to the satellite of the transponder the cursor is on. If you drag and drop a satellite with all its channels to the transponder list of another window, all these channels will be added to the transponder the cursor is on. This will also happen to channels that come from another FAV list, provider, label, etc. Note: It may happen that you can't receive a channel, if you assign it to the wrong transponder. Satellite: The imported channels will be added to the satellite the cursor is on. Transponders that don't exist yet in the transponder list of the destination settings file, will be created. Favourite list: A direct import into the favourite lists is not possible. General note: If there is a possible assignment, you can copy channels from each list of one window to each list of another window. For example you can transfer channels from the "Find channels" function of a SatcoDX list to a satellite of a Smart MX 40 list. In the popup menu of the channel list there are two functions that may help you to compare the channel lists of different settings files. These functions are only available in the channel list menu, if two or more SetEdit windows are opened. With the function "Mark new channels in" you can mark in another window the channels that do not exist in your actual list. (The channel number of these channels will be marked in green.)

selected transponder or channel.
When you select a satellite in the satellite list only the transponders and channels that are in that satellite are shown. When you click in a transponder or favourite list only the channels that are in this list are shown. You can adapt the design of SetEditMX40 to your personal wishes. To change the size of the main window you can either click on the maximise button in the upper right corner or drag one of the margins of the window. If the main window is large enough, the channel lists can be shown in more than one column. Then you have more channels in view. You can change the width of these columns in the configuration menu on the tab sheet "General settings". In the section "Column width" you can enter if a new column is created, when 100% (auto) or 90-30% of the channels are shown completely. The other channel names are cut.
With "manual" you can enter the column width by hand. Select the function "Setup column width" from the menu of the channel lists and then you can click on the position where you want to have the right border of the first column. Note: There is a minimum width for the columns. If the window is too small to show more than one column the column width has no effect. In the section "Cut names" you can enter if the channel name is cut at the end,
or if a part of the channel name is cut from the middle.
In the configuration on the tab sheet "General settings" you can change the menu language of SetEdit (this concerns all opened SetEdit windows) and specify whether the PIDs are shown in decimal or hexadecimal form (see chapter 8). To get more columns in the window, you can enter that the channel names are shown in their short mode (see chapter 3.d). If you activate on the same tab sheet the option "Show channel count in lists" the number of channels of each satellite, transponder and each FAV list is shown behind the name of this list. Especially when you want to move channels from the beginning to the end of your list, it may be useful to use the split function. With this function you can split your list into two parts, one showing the beginning and the other showing the end of your settings (see chapter 3.b.) With a double-click on the frame "TV channels" or "Radio channels" only the choosen channel list is shown. With another double-click on this frame both lists are shown again. With the "show" function of the menu of the channel list you have also the possibility to choose, if you only want to see the TV, the radio channels, or both channel types.

You have two ways of printing your settings. You can either sort the list by the channel numbers (to have a printed channel list) or by the transponders of the channels (to compare your settings with lists in magazines). If you print your channels in number sequence, you can also select whether you want to print all channels, only the selected ones or only the unskipped channels. The channel number and name are always printed; additionally you can print the transponder data (frequency, symbol rate, polarity and FEC), the satellite, the PIDs, the Channel ID and the flags for "scrambled" or "FAV". In the field "Font size" you can enter the size of the font that is used for printing. If more than one column will fit on the page you will get a multi column printout. With Export you can export your settings as an ASCII file (e.g. to open it with Word). You have the same options as with the print function. With Close you close the actual active SetEdit window. If only one window is opened you close the complete program. With Exit you exit from SetEdit. All open editor windows are closed. In the configuration you can enter with Restore last session when starting that all opened editor windows are reopened when you start the program the next time. When you like to use this function you have to finish from SetEdit with the "File" -> "Exit" function. If you close all windows one by one only the last opened window will be restored.

5.b Configuration

Click on the "Config." button to change the general settings of SetEdit. There are three tab sheets in the configuration menu. General settings: If you click on "General settings" you get the following menu:
In the field Comport you can select which comport of your PC is used to connect to your receiver. The value Frequ. Tol. (Frequency tolerance) is used when importing and indicates the tolerance a transponder frequency may have relative to the imported one to be considered to be the same. If you have for example a transponder with the frequency 11721 MHz in you settings and you import a channel with the frequency 11720 MHz and the frequency tolerance is set to 5 MHz no new transponder is created. This tolerance is also used for the transponder list. With Column width you can select if 100% (auto) or 90-30% of all channels have to fit completely to a column. All other channel names are truncated. With "manual" you can enter the column width by hand. Please select the function "Setup column width" from the menu of the channel lists and then you can click on the position where you want to have the right border of the first column. Note: There is a minimum width for the columns. If the window is too small to show more than one column the column width has no effect. In the field Cut names you can enter, if channel names that are too long (see column width), are cut at the end or in the middle. In the field PIDs you select how the PIDs are shown/entered (decimal or hexadecimal). You can also switch between these two viewing modes, if you click on the "H" for hexadecimal or the "D" for decimal in the frame of the "Information" section. With Language you can select the menu language you would like. This language is taken for all opened SetEdit windows. With Always on top SetEditMX40 always stays on top of your desktop. With Names: short you will get the short names of the channels in the channel list (see chapter 3.d). With Start with last used file SetEditMX40 opens automatically the last used file every time you start the program. With When loading use personal sat + menu settings you can, after you have once saved your satellite configuration (the general settings are also saved, see chapter 3.i), use this configuration automatically when loading settings. For example you can use your satellite and you general settings always when you load settings from other sources. If Restore last session when starting is activated, all editor windows that were opened when you

5.c Channel functions

Please select the channels you like to edit/modify. You get most functions when you click with the right mouse button on a channel list. You will get the popup menu of the channel list:
Some menu items are only visible, when you are using the import functions. Info: Here you get the number of TV and radio channels, transponders and satellites that are in your settings. With Show you can change the viewing mode of SetEditMX40. You can select if you only want to see the TV or the radio channels or both. Note: Alternatively you can double-click on the TV/Radio frame to change the viewing mode. Furthermore you can hide the satellites, transponders, favourite lists and the data window with Show only channels. With All lists you can see all lists again. With View sorted by the channel list can be shown in the original order, sorted alphabetically or sorted by frequencies or polarities. With Change channel data you get the following window where you can change the properties of a channel:
In the field Name you can change the name of the channel. If you find "<" and ">" in the channel name, this is to distinguish between the short and the long channel name, see chapter 3.d for details. You can enter the PIDs, the Channel ID and the transponder data of the channel and enter, if the channel is locked (you have to enter the parental PIN), scrambled or marked as skipped. With PIDs you can choose if the PIDs are shown decimal or hexadecimal. You can find a longer description of the different PIDs, IDs and transponder data in chapter 3.g. With Delete you can delete selected channels or, when you are in a FAV list, remove them from this
favourite list. You can also delete one or more selected channels by hitting the Del key on your keyboard. With Copy you can copy a channel, then you can paste the channel to another position. With Paste you can paste a channel that was previously deleted or copied. With Move to you can move a channel to a position that you enter with the keyboard. With Select you can select all, all scrambled, all locked, all skipped, all C-band channels or (for the import) all new or all not existing channels (depending on which channels are actually marked).
With Invert selection you can invert the selection, the channels that are selected will become unselected and vice versa. If you like to delete all but one channel from a transponder, you can select the channel you like to keep, invert your selection and delete the now selected channels. With Mark as you can change the following properties for one or more selected channels at once: -Mark channel(s) as "(un)locked", "(not) skipped" or "(un)scrambled" -Assign channel(s) to a FAV list or remove it/them from all FAV lists
Mark new channels in: If you have opened more than one window of SetEdit (Import), you can mark in another channel list the channels that you don't have in your actual channel list. Mark not existing channels in: If you have opened more than one window of SetEdit (Import), you can mark in your actual channel list the channels that you don't have in another channel list. Remove new/not existing channel markings: With this function you can remove the markings for new or not existing channels in your actual list (Import). With Sort you can sort selected channels by alphabet, by frequency or by polarity or sort the entire channel list by satellites.

When you click on a satellite only the channels and transponders of this satellite are shown. When you click with the right mouse button in the satellite window you will get the following popup menu:
Show active satellites/Show all satellites: With this function you can select if you want to see all satellites in the satellite list or only the active satellites (satellites which already have channels). Change data: You will get the following window in which you can change the satellite-specific data:
You can also double-click on the satellite to get this. Here you can change the Name, the motor position, the geographical position (longitude), the LNB configuration, and the parameters for the DiSEqC, 12 V and 0/22 kHz of this satellite. View sorted by: With this function you can select if the satellites are shown in original order, or sorted alphabetically or by the geographical position (longitude). Sort: With this function you can sort the whole satellite list alphabetically or by their Longitudes. With Clear you can clear a satellite. All channels and transponders are deleted and the geographic position is set to 0.0 east. This is useful if you want to use the convert option "Convert FAV lists to satellites" (see chapter 5.b). With New you can enter a new satellite. With Delete you can delete a satellite and all transponders and channels that used this satellite. Save satellite configuration: With this function you save the satellite and LNB configuration of the actual loaded settings file (see chapter 3.i.) Load satellite configuration: With this function you can overwrite the satellite and LNB configuration of the actual settings with a
configuration you saved before. In the configuration menu you can enter that this is done automatically when you load a file. In the frame of the satellite list there are several uppercase letters for the following functions: A: Show all satellites P: Show only active (programmed) satellites O: Show satellites in original order N: Show satellites sorted by alphabet (names) L: Show satellites sorted by their geographical position (longitude)
5.e Transponder functions
If you select a transponder only the channels that belong to this transponder are shown. If you select "All" in the satellite list you can move the mouse over a transponder to see the satellite of this transponder. You get most functions if you click with the right mouse button on the transponder list. You will get the popup menu of the transponder list.
With View sorted by you can select if the transponders are displayed in their original order or sorted by frequency or polarity. The transponders will remain in the original order internally. With Sort you can sort the transponder list by frequencies or polarities. With this function you also change the internal order off the transponders. With Change data you can change the parameters of a selected transponder. You get the following window:

You can also call this function with a double-click on a transponder. Here you can change the frequency, the polarity, the symbol rate and the FEC of a transponder and you can enter a name for this transponder. These changes are made for all channels that use this transponder too. With Delete you can delete a transponder and all its channels. You can also use the Del key on your keyboard. If the transponder has channels, you are asked if you really want to delete these channels. If you want to delete a transponder without checking if existing channels are deleted too, you can use the shortcut Ctrl-Del. With Delete all empty transponders you can delete all transponders that don't contain channels. With New you can create a new transponder or a new TV or Radio channel on the selected transponder. If you want to create a new transponder, and a satellite is selected in the satellite list, the transponder is assigned to this satellite. If "All" is selected in the satellite list and a transponder is selected in the transponder list, the new transponder is assigned to the satellite of this selected transponder. If "All" is selected in the satellite list and no transponder is selected, you can't create a new transponder. In the frame of the transponder list there are several uppercase letters for the following functions: O: The transponders are shown in original order. F: The transponders are shown sorted by frequencies. P: The transponders are shown sorted by polarities.

5.f Favourites

The Smart MX 40 receivers have eight favourite lists into which you can copy your favourite channels.
When you click with the right mouse button in the favourite list, you get the following menu:
With Export you can save a selected FAV list. With Import you can load a previously saved FAV list. Each channel can be in more than one FAV list without creating a duplicate first. Channels that are in a FAV list are marked in the channel list with a darker background colour. (You can change these colours in the configuration.) Add/remove a channel to/from a FAV list: To add one or more channels to a FAV list, please select the channel(s) you want to add to a FAV list. Now you can drag them to the FAV list (drop them on the name of this list). They are added at the end of this FAV list. To remove a channel from a FAV list, please select the FAV list and then the channel that you want to remove from the favourite list and use the delete function of the channel list menu or hit the Del key on your keyboard. If you delete a channel within a FAV list, this channel is only removed from this FAV list and not from the main list. It is also possible to assign one or more channel(s) to a FAV list or remove them from all FAV lists with the help of the "Mark as" function in the channel list menu. Change channel order within a FAV list: To change the order of the favourite channels, please select the channel(s) you wish to move. Now you can drag them to the position within the FAV list where you want to have them (drop them on the new position). Within the favourites you can change the order independently of the order in the main list. If you now change the order by using the drag & drop function you will only change the order within this FAV list but not the order of the main list. In the opposite way the order of the channels in a FAV list will not change, if you change the order of the channels in the main list. To change the name of a FAV list please make a double click on the FAV name, you will get the following window:
