Basic Setting-up24DiSEqC-Signal (Digital Satellite Equipment Control)Different control signals are required when selecting satellite signals.Up until now the14/18V LNB supply-voltage and the 22 kHz. signal (which is over-ridden by the LNB feed-voltage) was sufficient for the majority of application-trapsto select the signals.With these 4 control-criterions you can switch between the horizontally and verti-cally polarised signals as well as between 2 satellites (multi-feed reception).With the expansion of the frequency ranges into the 12 GHz band (high-bandrange 11.70 - 12.75 GHz) or for the reception of more than two satellites additionalcontrol-criterions are required for the LNB-drive and signal selection.Eutelsat together with Philips have developed the ”DiSEqC”-control-signal.The ”DiSEqC” control-signal applies a special modulation (pulse-widening modula-tion) to the existing 22 kHz. signals.You must distinguish between:• DiSEqC Tone Burst(described as Simple DiSEqC or Easy DiSEqC)• DiSEqC 1.0• DiSEqC 2.0The UFD 346 receiver uses both Tone Burst Signal and DiSEqC 1.0. Which one isrequired depends upon the components in your reception-system.DiSEqC Menu Settings• Call-up the basic setting-up menu (see section, ”Calling-up the Basic Setting-upmenus”).• Use these buttons to select the menu option ”DiSEqC menu . . .”.• Use these buttons to select the sub-menu ”DiSEqC menu . . .”.The following menu is then displayed ( default settings):DiSEqC SETTINGS>22KHz signal: Pos A/BTone Burst: OFFDiSEqC: OFFDiSEqC repeat: OFFRemote freq.: 1000 MHz0-9 VOL A/B STOR STBYThe status line at the bottom of the menu shows the buttons that you must use tochange the settings.22 KHz SignalThis menu-option determines whether the 22 KHz signal can be switched betweena satellites upper and lower frequency bands (High/Low) or between 2 satellites(Pos.
