It s more than unclear, however, why this still has to be performed by fiddling a potentiometer screw on a receiver that is brimming with software otherwise. Reception of the C-band, at least in Europe, used to be satellite TV reception with oversized dishes rather an unusual hobby. No wonder, then, that a growing number of viewers point their second dish to a C-band satellite. That s where DiSEqC comes into play again, offering its elegant one-cable solution. It s of less use if the receiver isn t C-band compatible the Lemon DMX 600 X is.
Dealers can also easily reconfigure the device to meet their customers demands.
The receiver has an interface that allows data exchange between two DMX 600 X units. Configuring the receiver to cope with various LNBs does not pose a problem as the installation menu lets you select between all usual LNB oscillator frequencies. In addition, a frequency offset can be adjusted to compensate for LNBs that are slightly off their nominal frequency. Differences in the brightness of different TV stations can be adjusted separately for each channel. As the DMX 600 X is capable of controlling a Variosat outdoor unit, eight satellites can be named and assigned to the desired programme locations.
