If you have connected your satellite receiver to your TV by using a SCART cable, your TV will automatically switch
to the signals coming from your satellite receiver. If you don't see the picture from the satellite receiver now, please
switch your TV manually to the External video source, you can do this by pressing the AV or EXT button on the
Remote control of your TV.
Note: Refer to your TV manual to find out how your TV switches to the External video Source˛
If you have connected your satellite receiver to your TV by using a UHF cable, you will first need to find the correct
UHF channel on your TV.
• Select a free preset on your TV (for example Program number 10).
• Open the menu of your TV and select the (automatic) channel search option. (refer to the user
manual of your TV set if you don't know how to use the search function).
• Start the channel search option on your TV and search UHF channels until you see the picture
from the satellite receiver.
• Store the position in the TV memory (refer to the user manual of your TV set if you don't know how
to store channels in your TV).
If you have correctly followed above steps you will now see the System Set UP menu generated by your satellite
receiver. You are now ready to Set Up your receiver:
• The cursor of the menu highlights the “Language Settings”.
• Use the UP/DOWN keys on your Remote control, select the language in which you want your
menu to be displayed and press OK. The screen of the menu will now change to the language of
your choice, and the menu option “Channel Set-Up” will appear on your screen.
• You will see the “Channel Set-Up” screen with different parameters. The pre-set values are
correct for the ASTRA satellite. We strongly advise you to NOT change any of the settings before
you are sure that your dish is aligned correctly.
• You will see two signal bar fields at the right lower part of your screen, showing Signal strength
and signal quality.
• Leave the satellite receiver in this menu and start with the alignment of your dish. The ASTRA
satellite is located at 19.2° East. Find with a compass what is North and South, keep the Compass
in your hand and turn your position until South is in front of your face. Now turn 19 Degrees to he
left, this is roughly the-position where the Astra satellite must be found.
• Now slowly move your dish to the left or to the right , make small steps to allow the (green) signal
bars to display the signal level. Note that you will not see any green bars until you have aimed
your dish to the ASTRA satellite correctly. If you can not find the signal by turning Left or Right,
then increase or decrease the vertical angle of you dish and again turn Left and Right. Repeat
these steps until you see the Green signal bars appearing.
• Once you see the bars, try to optimize the Level and Quality bars my making very small
movements with the dish in Left, Right, Upper or Lower direction. Once you are convinced that
you have the optimal signal strength, firmly fix you dish on that position.
• Now you are ready to search the satellite and scan the available channels, you have different
options to scan, we recommend you to the keep the settings in the menu as they are. Just press
the RED (Automatic) button on your remote control to start the automatic scan. All channels will
be found automatically, and once the search is completed the found channels will be stored in a
logical order.
• Once this process is finished the receiver will automatically switch to channel number 1. If channel
number 1 is a Free To Air channel ( not encrypted) you will be able to enjoy the first digital
pictures.
