ALIGNMENT (SATELLITE SEARCH)
The antenna is aligned automatically. After the UFS 740 has been switched on, the turntable
automatically moves to the last channel received and the associated satellite position (e.g. ARD/ASTRA).
This works because each satellite is automatically recognised by the turntable.
The satellite search is started when you select a channel. If the turntable has not yet saved the position
of the satellite, you will see the following display when you select a channel (example):
If the vehicle is not on supports during the search process and people are mo-
ving around inside it, there is a risk that movement of the vehicle will mean that
the satellite is not found.
Press the
button to start search mode.
The search may take a few minutes (generally about two minutes). You will rst see the following message:
As soon as the turntable has found the correct satellite, it saves this position. During this process you
receive no TV picture. The turntable will then perform an automatic ne adjustment (if the signal
level is suf cient, the satellite position will be saved immediately by the turntable). During the ne
adjustment you will for the rst time receive a TV picture, this however can still “freeze” during the ne
adjustment process - whether it does or not is system-dependent.
The set position (of the satellite that was found) is saved and the desired channel appears on the
TV screen.
