When the search has finished, press the button to view. 7. Repeat the process for all the transponders you want from this satellite.

8. Automatic Search

It is possible to use automatic search using the DiSEqC 1.2 motorised system. 1. Ensure that the positions for the satellite you want to search is correct.(see Section 3 and 5 above) 2. In the Main Menu, select the option channel searching and press the button. 3. In the Service Searching menu, select the Antenna Alternative that you have set for this satellite. 4. When you search new services, please refer to Automatic Search of page E28. 5. When the search has finished, press the button to store and view the services. Now that you have stored all the positions of the satellites and searched for all the services you want, you can now use your receiver as normal. When you change to a service that is being transmitted from a different satellite, you will have to wait a few seconds to allow the motor to move into position to receive the new service.

You can use a special antenna switch with DiSEqC commands. When changing ASTRA1 to EUTELSAT for example, a DiSEqC command is sent with the 22KHz tone through the antenna cable. The antenna switch will change ASTRA1 to EUTELSAT. The concept of DiSEqC is a protective trademark of EUTELSAT. Data rate decides the picture quality of digital TV programmes. Data rate of about 5-6 Mbit/s coincides with the picture quality of a analog TV programme.
