Power On Requirements
When the Digital Satellite Receiver is powered on, the receiver will tune to the last
tuned channel. If this channel no longer exists, the receiver will tune to channel 100.
Prior to initial setup of the receiver, the receiver may automatically go to Setup menu
or tune to channel 100.
Tuning Mode
The Tuning Mode happens when the user attempts to change the channel. The Digital
Satellite Receiver will support 3 ways to change the channel, as outlined below:
Direct Tuning Method
The Digital Satellite Receiver supports the tuning of either single or compound
channel numbers. The single channel numbers range from (0 to 9999) and compound
channel numbers (major-minor) can range from (0-0 to 999-99)*. The compound
channel number uses the “PROG” button to enter the minor number field. Following is
an example of Direct tuning screen.
*For example, 120-1 is an example of a compound number. 120 is the major number
and 1 is the minor number.
