Description

Orion Express (or Viva TV)- federal satellite television system, broadcasting more than 40 channels in digital quality. Project Orion has been in existence for over two years. It was previously known as Stargate TV. Initially, the main activity of the operator was the supply of content to cable networks. But after the change in the leadership of Stargate TV and the merger with the telecom operator Orion Express, the company revised the direction of its activities and launched access cards for individual subscribers.

Orion Express (Viva TV) package channels are broadcast from the Express AM2 satellite 80 degrees east longitude, owned by FSUE Kosmicheskaya Svyaz. The satellite has a fairly extensive coverage area: the entire territory of Russia (with the exception of Chukotka, Kamchatka); CIS countries; Eastern Europe (south to the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf); northern China, northern India, Korea, Japan. From October 2008 it is also planned to start broadcasting from satellite Express AM3 140 degrees east longitude for residents of Siberia and the Far East. The channels will be broadcast with an offset of +4, +5, +6 hours from Moscow time.

Reception equipment

Channels are encoded in Irdeto. With regard to the choice of receivers, the company keeps technological neutrality. To receive Orion Express, you will need either a receiver with a built-in card reader for Irdeto encoding, or with CI slots for pcmcia CA modules and an Irdeto module.

The transfer of subscribers of the satellite operator "Rikor TV" will be carried out in the normal mode. Rikor TV will send notification letters about the transition procedure to customers in the coming days. Contact Center "Orion Express" is fully ready to receive requests and service new customers. The integration process is planned to be completed by November 01, 2014.

The integration will be carried out using the Conax conditional access system, which is fully compatible with the Orion Express LLC platform, while maintaining the subscriber equipment.

For the period of transition to the services of the operator, Orion Express will provide subscribers of LLC Rikor TV with access to the Unlimited package. After integration is completed, balances on subscriber accounts will be taken into account when paying for services at Orion Express tariffs.

According to Sergei Stavropoltsev, Deputy General Director of Rikor TV, the termination of Rikor's operator activities is due to Roskomnadzor's refusal to issue a broadcasting license. “In the current situation, the main thing for us is to minimize inconvenience for subscribers, and switching to Orion Express is the best solution in this regard, since it allows them to continue using both existing set-top boxes and access cards,” he said. Stavropoltsev stressed that Rikor will continue to operate as a service provider, supplying smart TV solutions to pay TV operators.

“We will do our best so that in order to switch to the Orion Express LLC platform, the majority of Rikor TV subscribers only need to reconfigure their antenna. In this we rely on the support of our installer partners, for whom an additional incentive program is currently being developed. The company's technical services are also fully prepared to take on the extra workload. We hope that the transition to the Orion Express platform will be comfortable and beneficial for our new customers,” commented Kirill Makhnovsky, Telecommunications Director of Orion Express LLC.

After the integration is completed, the Orion Express subscriber base will exceed 2.5 million subscribers.

Users often do the installation of satellite dishes and their configuration themselves, without calling specialists. How to set up your own satellite TV "Telecard"?

The interaction of the signal and the device that receives it largely depends on the location in which the antenna is installed, what features the very place of its installation and the surrounding area have. Telekarta operator is broadcasting from the Intelsat-15 satellite.

The place where you plan to install the antenna can be either in the coverage area or outside it. If the antenna is in the zone of reliable reception, then there will be a minimum of hassle. In this case, a plate with a diameter of 60 cm is quite suitable, and it will not be difficult to set it up at all.

If the place chosen for installing the antenna is outside the signal reception area, then everything becomes much more complicated. You will have to spend more money on the purchase of equipment, in particular, you will need a larger diameter antenna. In addition, the user will need to know exactly the coordinates of the broadcast, otherwise the receiver will not receive a signal at all.

For advice on setting up the antenna, you can call: 8-800-100-104-7.

In this case, it will be easier to tune the antenna than if you randomly twist the antenna in different directions in an attempt to pick up a signal. Coordinates can also be viewed on the operator's website. If you are doing the installation and configuration completely on your own, and if it is difficult for you to enter the coordinates, then you can try to rotate the dish manually, observing the receiver's indicators until the device catches the signal.

Accurate Antenna Positioning

Choose (determine) the direction to the south. It should be open, there should be no tall trees, buildings, structures, etc. The best option is if the sector of 90 degrees (45 to the right and left of the main direction) is completely open.

At the same time, the antenna installation site must be well protected from the winds. These are two contradictory requirements, but ideally this should be the case.

The place must be absolutely flat so that the antenna brackets are installed in a vertical and horizontal plane without the slightest deviation.

After preparing the site, it is necessary to clarify the direction of the antenna. The Earth's magnetic field has its own characteristics, and it often happens that when the compass is directed from the antenna installation point to 85.15 ° E. e. suddenly it turns out that the satellite is not there. The easiest way to find out the real direction to the satellite is to ask one of the neighbors who has already installed and tuned the antenna.

If the first attempts to tune the antenna to the satellite using a compass or map did not work (there is no image on the screen, or there is, but the quality is very low), then you need to more accurately direct the antenna to the satellite. For this, the method of manually scanning the space at the estimated location of the satellite is used. The meaning of the method is to smoothly and slowly rotate the antenna within an imaginary plane, in the center of which is the point of the supposed location of the satellite, and the dimensions of the plane are limited to 10 degrees in the horizontal arc and 6 degrees in the vertical arc. The antenna must first be directed to the point where the satellite is supposed to be, and then carefully slowly turn it, taking a step of no more than 1-2 cm, and after each step, pause for a few seconds so that the receiver has time to “realize” whether there is a signal here, or not. In this case, you need to look at the TV screen. As soon as the satellite is caught, the power will immediately begin to increase, and then the quality.

Antenna mount

In order for the antenna to successfully receive a signal from the satellite, it is not necessary to call specialists, you can install it yourself.

The main rule when installing a satellite dish: it must be securely fixed to a stationary surface. If it is supposed to be fixed to the vertical wall of the house, then you will need to drill the wall with a puncher, then insert dowels into the hole and fasten the necessary parts with self-tapping screws. The piece of pipe to which the antenna is attached must be strictly vertical, so you need to use a level or at least a regular plumb line with a weight. After the bracket is fixed, you can assemble the antenna itself. It is at this stage that you need to attach the cable and turn the converter around its axis.

How to set up the Telekarta-TV antenna to a satellite

To carry out the correct setting, you first need to check if there are already settings, and if they have been knocked down, then enter new data.

First you need to perform the following manipulations:

1. Turn off the equipment from the network, connect all the wires. Otherwise, the receiver will be damaged. The device has special inputs - tulips, or use "Scart".
2. An image will appear on the screen, indicating that the receiver is working, but the antenna is not receiving a signal from the satellite.
3. On the remote control, press the "Menu" key, in which you need to find the antenna settings item.
4. If the signal is weak or absent at all, then the parameters of the Telecard TV channels will be approximately at the level of 45% of the potential signal strength. And the value of quality is not more than 50%. With such indicators, the user will not see anything. The antenna must be installed in such a way that the power is at least 90%, and the signal quality is at least 70%. The picture, in principle, will appear at 50%, but such a reception will be uncertain, and at the slightest deterioration in the weather it may disappear. If the equipment is working properly, then the set-top box will immediately catch 18 channels.

Setting up the Intelsat-15 satellite

If there is no satellite on the receiver, then it must be added manually. This is not difficult to do, especially if the parameters are known. You can find them on the official website.

Basic parameters that may be needed when adding a new satellite

The converter frequency is 10600. For some regions, the indicator 9750-10600 may be relevant, in particular for the Sverdlovsk region. The power supply of the converter must be turned on during setup.

Transponder parameters:

• symbol rate - 30 thousand Msym / s;
• frequency - 12640 MHz;
• FEC - 5/6;
• polarization - vertical;
• broadcast format - MPEG-2, DVB-S.

If there is still no signal from the satellite, even if the equipment is configured correctly, then you need to check the local time setting. Perhaps this is the reason - the system sometimes perceives such failures as a software error, which is why it cannot start work in normal mode.
