6.2.2.12. LNB L.O. Type
The LNB L.O. Type parameter defines the LNB oscillator type in use.
Two standards are generally used:
• LNB ‘Universal’ standard, in the 9.75 to 10.6 GHz, or the LNB Universal 'Wide Band’, in
the 9.75 to 10.75 GHz range.
• Digital Sattelite Equipment Control (DiSEqC) standard, in the 9.75 to 10.6 GHz range.
In addition, the oscillator value can set to Ku Band or C Band and be manually configured
(using the .
The following figure illustrates the LNB L.O. Type screen.

NOTEs
The LNB L.O. type can be acquired from satellite transponder information. Most satellites use
the ‘Universal’ type of L.O. unless otherwise specified.
Manual configuration of the oscillator frequency is rarely used and is intended only for
advanced users.
Available LNB local oscilator types are:
• UNIVERSAL (9.75,10.6) – Selects LNB universal L.O. type
• WIDE BAND (9.75, 10.75) – Selects LNB wide band L.O. type
• Ku-BAND – Defines Ku-Band LNB L.O. type
• C-BAND – Defines C-Band LNB L.O. type
• DiSEqC (9.75, 10.75) – Selects DiSEqC LNB L.O. type
NOTE
When selecting the Ku-Band or the C-Band local oscilator, you must manually set the L.O.
frequency (see the LNB L.O. Frequency configuration function detailed in paragraph 6.2.1.9).
