• DiSEqC Mini (2 LNBs)
Check on the manual or label of the DiSEqC Switch which option to select. When in doubt, try the setting DiSEqC 1.0 (3-4 LNBs). Please note that the TV only supports DiSEqC Mini and 1.0.

• Select [Done] > [Start]
The TV will start a complete channel scan. This can take up to an hour, depending on the number of satellites. When the search is complete, the TV will display a message and show an overview of the found channels. Press OK to finish the installation.

UB0, UB1, UB2, UB3, UB4, UB5, UB6, UB7
