EPG	Electronic program guides that are transmitted by a broadcaster from a particular satellite to display information guide about a program content.
Fixed Dish	A dish antenna that is aimed at one particular satellite.
Free-To-Air broadcast	Unscrambled broadcast which you can view for free.
Ku band	11 ~ 13 GHz Frequency.
LNB	(Low-Noise Block down-converter). The LNB is an electronic unit mounted on the satellite dish. It receives the signals reflected by the dish and converts them to signals that can be used by Satellite receiver.
MPEG	The Moving Picture Experts Group is founded by the ISO. MPEG is a standard method for digital transmission of video and audio.
Network	A network which is also known as a bouquet is a set of channels that is offered by a single broadcaster.
PAL	Referring to the Phase Alternate Line colour system adopted by European broadcasters.
Parental lock	This function gives you the possibility to 'lock' other several functions of the receiver to prevent unauthorized users such as children to view channels that are not suitable for them. A PIN code is required to use of the parental lock.
PID	The transmitted packages have identifiers (PID) that tells the receiver what to do with the received information. Satellite receivers normally use four types of PID, these are V-PID (video PID), A-PID (audio PID), P-PID (Program PID) and data PID (EPG information).

PIN Code

Personal Identification NumberA four-digit code that is used for locking/unlocking, e.g. with the parental control feature.

Polarization

Allows several programmes to be fitted into the same frequency band. The signals from a satellite are transmitter either with linear (vertical or horizontal) polarization or circular (right or left) polarization.

RS 232

Serial data port.
