Preparing the receiver

EPAK-TV does not need a special receiver. The satellite tracking system can be connected to
any commercial receiver for digital and analogue reception. Only the LNB-type in the setup
menu of the receiver has to be set on "Universal" (LOF 9,75/10,6 GHz). If you want several
satellite positions, the DiSEqC ™ function for an automatic satellite switch has to be
activated.
To program your receiver, please refer to the respective owner's manual!
!! For every satellite at least one program must be preprogrammed in the receiver to
control the satellite position of the antenna unit by means of the TV picture quality. If
not, pre-program the receiver by using an already installed satellite system!
!! In case the receiver supports the function, adjust the receiver so that the power supply of
the LNB is turned off during the Standby-mode. This means that the control unit and the
antenna unit are without power supply. This function enables the turning on and off of
the antenna unit via remote control of the receiver, which lowers the power
consumption.
!! In case several receivers are connected to the antenna simultaneously (e.g. a digital
receiver with looped through analogue receiver) both receivers must have identical
DiSEqC ™ settings, i.e. both active or inactive.

Power on / off / Standby

The antenna unit is controlled by the control unit. By pressing the  (Power) key, the
initialization starts. If the antenna was aligned to a stored satellite before the antenna was
turned off, it will try to regain that satellite. If the satellite could not be found, the
initialization will finish by showing SETUP on te display. Press the Q (Power) key again.
You are now in the Standby mode.
!! If the control unit is in Standby mode there will be no power supply to the antenna.
