Dropdown list «Provider»
This is the list in which names of all preset and saved parameters of satellite Internet are contained. After selecting a provider data in the tabs «Tuner», «LNB» and «DiSEqC» is changed and comes into effect after pressing the key «Set» in the tab «Tuner».
The key «Add» saves the new provider and the parameters in the tabs «Tuner», «LNB» and «DiSEqC» are being used.
The key «Change» allows modify pre-set and saved parameters of providers.
Algorithm of editing the data about the provider:
1.Select a provider needed from the list.
2. Add required changes in the tabs «Tuner», «LNB» and «DiSEqC».
3. Press the key «Set».
4. Press the key «Change» and after this the data in the configuration file Prof IP DATA is being updated.
The key «Delete» wipes up a provider from the list along with all the parameters of signal, DiSEqc and converter.
Tab «Tuner»
Panel «Tuner Status»
Contains indicators that show «Signal level in percentage» and «Signal quality in percentage». Both indicators are divided in three color sectors red, yellow and green.
Color index: – reception without errors (in case if there is no interference).
- Red – insufficient level or quality of signal, reception is impossible.
- Yellow – insufficient level or quality of signal, reception with errors is possible.
- Green – reception without errors (in case if there is no interference).
Panel «Transponder parameters»
Contains transponder parameters required for data reception.
In the input box «Frequency (MHz)» the central frequency of transponder in MHz is indicated. The central frequency is usually being used as in real conditions of reception the frequency varies in +/- 3 MHz. For example, in hot season LNB (converter) heats and the frequency drifts from the central level. The majority of cheap LNB in any season drifts from the set frequency in +/- 1 MHz. DVB-cards Prof successfully deal with “drifting” frequency owing to efficient search algorithms and lock of the necessary signal.
In the input box «Speed (kS/s)» transponder symbol rate is indicated in kilo symbols per second.
In the dropdown list «Polarization» required polarization can be chosen: vertical «V» or horizontal «H».
In the dropdown list «Type» transponder type is located: DVB-S or DVB-S2. In case if DVB-card does not support the standard DVB-S2 the list is blocked.
The dropdown list «FEC» contains data of errors predication corrector. It is obligatory required to indicate for DVB-S2, not required for DVB-S (setting for «Auto»).
The key «Set» allows activate parameters required for operation of DVB-card and parameters located in the tabs «Tuner», «LNB», «DiSEqC» and «MPE-filter».
The tick «Hide after Start» means that starting Prof IP DATA minimizes in system tray (box near clock).
Status of signal reception is displayed by icon color change:
- Red – transponder is not locked or «Signal level» and
«Signal quality» are not sufficient for reception.
- Blue – transponder is locked, data is not being received.
- Green – transponder is locked, data is being received. Speed of data transfer is displayed at the diagram available at the tab «MPE-filter» panel «Status».
