Amongst other things, the below parameters are what you need to decide prior to manual scan.

  1. Tuner

    You need to decide which tuner you want to use for manual scan.

  2. System

    Here you have two options between DVB-S (SD) and DVB-S2 (HD), if DVB-S2 tuner is mounted.

  3. Frequency

    You need to enter the exact frequency of the transponder that you want to scan.

  4. Symbol Rate

    You need to enter the exact symbol rate of the transponder that you want to scan

  5. Polarity

    Here, you have options for Horizontal, Vertical, Circular Left and Circular Right. You need to know the polarity of the transponder that you want to scan.

  6. FEC (Forward Error Correction)

    You need to enter the exact FEC value of the transponder that you want to scan

  7. Modulation

    Here you have two options for QPSK (SD) and 8PSK (HD).

  8. Network Scan

    Here you have two options for YES and NO . NO is used to scan the transponder (TP) based on the data that your Vu+ currently has.
    YES is used to scan the TP not just based on the existing TP data but also using new TP data, if there is TP data newly transported from the TP. Naturally,
    YES option takes longer while it may results in a better scan result.

  9. Clear Before Scan

    YES is used when you want to delete the existing channel list before you start the automatic scan. If you want to keep the existing list, select NO .

  10. Only Free Scan

    Here you have two options for YES and NO . If you want to scan only Free To Air channels without any encryption, select YES .
    Otherwise, select NO to scan all FTA and CAS channels.

Press OK to activate the manual scan. This will take some minutes. As the scan proceeds,
you will see the progressive bar and the newly found services underneath.
