Preface Dear Customer, we congratulate you on the purchase of the SAT Upgrade Kit which enables you to receive the programs transmitted via TV satellites without the need for a separate SAT receiver and an additional remote control. These operating instructions explain the operation of your TV set for the reception of satellite programs. The settings for the best-known TV and radio satellite programs transmitted via the satellites ASTRA,HOTBIRD and EUTELSAT (see satellite transmitter table) have

These stations are divided into the following groups: ASTRA TV stations, HOTBIRD TV stations and EUTELSAT TV stations. Each of these groups can be assigned only in its entirety and is sto- red starting at the programme position you specify. In the case of the ASTRA satellite, the group is subdivided into TV and radio stations. Example: You want to store al

If the polarization of your satellite aerial is switched by means of the LNC voltage, you must set the appropriate voltage for each station. The two voltages which are required for selection of the polarization can be set in the menu „LNC power supply“. For each station listed in the station table, one of these two voltages must

With this type of aerial, up to 5 current values (polarizer 1..5) are sent via the polarizer socket (on the back of the TV set) to the magnetic polarizer, which then sets the appropriate polarization. You can set 5 global polarizer values, which can then be assigned individually to the various program positions in the

Aerial Control Depending on the type of satellite aerial you use, there are three methods of aerial control for selection of H and V polarization: • control by means of the LNC voltage (the most common method), • control with the aid of a magnetic polarizer, • control with a relay. The appropriate control method for polarization must be selected in the station table. H for horizontal polarization or V for vertical polarization is displayed in the sub
