only scans them
based on the
transponder
parameters (
Frequency, Symbol

Polarization) that
is already
programmed in the
satellite receiver.
|
|
One of the most
popular features of
this receiver is
it's Channel Backup
& Recovery system.

channel list, simply
back up the list.
When and if you
accidentally erase
the channel list,
you can simply go to

|
Simply press the
"info" button on the
remote to display
the channel
parameters including
Audio PID, Video PID,
PCR, broadcasting
transponder
frequency, symbol
rate and plarization. |
|
Another useful function
which is not abundant on
other satellite
receivers is that not
only does the clock of
the receiver function
according to the
satellite, but you can
also offset the time by
the exact minuites.
This is important as the
satellite times are not
always correct.
|
|
|
Excellent installation
choices under the
Installation Menu. Your
options are Setup, Auto
Scan, TP Scan, Factory
Reset and most important
the powerful POWER Scan

One of the
better futures
is the timer on
this receiver.

your VCR and
Receiver to turn
on at a certain
time and turn
off at a certain
time to record
your favorite
shows. Choose
how often, and
choose for the

demonstration
modes of

is great to
still watch your

Another great
feature of the
receiver is the
Signal Beep
Sound. When

function beeps

excellent and
useful tool to
use when you can
not physically
look at the
