Help needed with ELAP receptor

[Rascalb]

Sorry to ask and I am probably being dim but - I have an ELAP set -up that I cannot set-up! I have a satellite finder and no prob with dish, but unable to follow instructions in French. I have all info from Lyngsat and am still stuggling. Does anyone know where english instructions may be posted on internet? Or has anyone done this themselves and could help please?

Thanks

If you add where in France you live somebody local may be perusaded to come roiund and sort it out for you.

Their website :

http://www.elap.fr/sommaire.html

does not have the manuals on line. If you can scan in and post the text from the somebody may be able to translate well enough to get you started.

These were the French instructions, followed by my bad translation, for adding channels to the very cheap Euros 68 including dish receiver which I purchased. ( so that I had a backup for our digibox and a way of recordings one programme and watching another. )

 

<<Programmation du récepteur numérique   ( Partie réserve aux utilisateurs avances )

 

Bien que le récepteur soit livre pre programme, vous pouvez avoir besoin de programmer de nouvelles chaînes ou de reprogrammer un canal dont les paramètres ont change.

 

Pour mémoriser de nouvelles chaînes reportez-vous aux paramètres contenus dans la presse spécialiste. En plus de la fréquence, des information sur la polarisation ( vertical ou horizontal) et la débit symbole utilise y figurent

 

Vous devrez pur obtenir de nouvelles chaînes soit entrée du canal correspondant ; soit effectuer une nouvelle recherche. >>

 

“ Programming The Digital Receiver  (Reserved for advanced users)

 

Although the receiver is delivered pre programmed , you may need to program new chains or re programme  a channel whose parameters have been changed  changed.

 

To memorize new chains input the parameters contained in the specialist press ( or check the Internet if you are in the 21^st Century) . In addition to the frequency, information one the polarization (vertical or horizontal) and the symbol flow figure used is needed.

 

To find the new channels on a transponder the digital receiver must then make a new search. “

 

 There is probably a similar section in your manual

Thanks Anton - We are in 53 - Bree near Montsurs to be exact. I will give it another go tomorrow.

Joking aside I normally suggest borrowing the neighbours 9 year old son.. [:D]   He will probably be flattered that you think he can solve the problem and can read the manual.
