Setting up television receivers with a built-in receiver
Currently, almost all well-known brands that produce TVs, such as LG and Samsung, offer models with a built-in receiver. This is convenient - no need to look for a place for separate equipment and hide wires. But there are also difficulties - you can only configure the tuner manually. The step-by-step diagram depends on the specific model of the television receiver and is specified in the instructions for the equipment.
The standard setup procedure looks like this:
- Menu.
- Manual setting.
- Network search.
- Transponder frequency is 12226.
- Symbol rate - 27500.
- Satellite name.
After this, you can proceed to searching for channels. At the end of the process, the list must be saved.
If none of the methods work, then all that remains is to call a toll-free number or go to the provider’s official website. It is possible that the only way out of the situation will be to invite a specialist who knows exactly how to set up broadcasting and can understand what causes the channels to go astray.

Step 4
At this stage of the Installation Wizard, the receiver searches for TricolorTV channels. By default, the settings for searching for TricolorTV channels are set.
You can also make the following settings:
LNB type
Select the type of converter (LNB):
single
,
universal
.
In the case of a single
LNB, the value of the operating
LNB local
oscillator frequency must be selected from:
5150
,
9750
,
10600
,
10750
.
If the required frequency is not available, enter the frequency manually using the Number buttons
~
.
If you have chosen the LNB type universal
, then switching between LNB local oscillator frequencies
9750
and
10600
MHz occurs automatically.
Power supply LNB Standard
— the standard value of the converter supply voltage is supplied to the LNB IN connector.
Increased
- the converter supply voltage increased by 1V is supplied to the LNB IN connector. Increased LNB supply voltage is used in rare cases of non-standard installations, mainly when the cable is too long.
Satellite
— select a satellite to search for channels.
TV Channel
- Select a reference reference channel for the selected satellite.
To start searching, click “Next”
.
The found channels will be displayed in two columns: All TV channels
and
All Radio channels
.
At the end of the search, a message will appear at the bottom of the screen indicating the number of TV and radio channels found. To complete the search, you must press the Yellow button “F3”
. Found
the channels will be stored in the receiver's memory. The search can be interrupted by pressing the Red “F1” button

only the channels found before pressing the button. To complete the search, you will also need to press the Yellow button “F3”
.
Settings Features
Before learning about Tricolor TV frequencies, you need to correctly connect and configure all the equipment.
You need to start with the location of the antenna. To receive all channels, including TNV. Later, you will need to become familiar with more settings, including lnb and others. When placing the antenna, make sure it faces south and that there are no high obstructions. Ideally, there should be a clear horizon in front of the antenna. Then the adjustment will bear fruit. It will be very good if you have the opportunity to adjust the position of the dish during operation in order to catch a cleaner signal. This setup is not only flexible, but also justified by operational needs.
The instructions will indicate how to assemble the antenna, after which you will need to move on to the next stage - setting up the broadcast and the channel table.
You will come across lnb when you set up a multifeed. In order for everything to work perfectly, the lnb value must be “single”. If lnb is assigned a different value, setting to Tricolor is not possible.
Many settings are made manually and cannot be adjusted automatically. So, you will need to independently configure your entire system to receive a specific satellite, and it all starts with system configuration. Here the Number value should be 1. In this case, it is important to observe the value of the bottom line 10750, the top line 10750. They can be different by default. However, you need to bring these frequencies into this unified form. If necessary, change the values manually.
Next, configure manual settings. Select the antenna number and frequency as indicated in the instructions. In this case, 1, Eutelsat W4, 12226. Select 27500 for the flow rate. This is the optimal value that is convenient to work with. After these simple manipulations, you need to look for a signal and navigate using the light indicators. There are no particular difficulties at this stage, but make sure that the mirror has a full view and that you do not block it.
Once you have already received a satellite signal, setting up channels will be very simple.

What are transponders from Tricolor TV?
A transponder is a small element of satellite technical equipment that is responsible for signal transmission. In this case, there are several transponders, each of which is responsible for a specific line of channels.
At the same time, the Tricolor client receiver is designed to receive signals from several transponders at once in order to provide the client with maximum comfort when using the company’s services. Without this technical element, you will not be able to view channels, nor will you be able to receive broadcast signals.

How to tune channels to Tricolor on an LG or Samsung TV
If, due to a failure or certain breakdowns, channels have disappeared on LG or Samsung TVs, you can restore their settings by performing a simple manual search and various settings. The standard settings described above are suitable if the settings of all broadcast categories are lost. If one specific channel is out of order, it is worth performing certain manipulations.
Before setting up a channel, you should go to the Tricolor website and find its frequency in a special table. Next, the following sequence of actions is carried out:
- The desired channel is selected through automatic or manual search;
- The parameters of the mounted satellite are set;
- The frequency is indicated;
- The security code is indicated;
- The TV stream speed and polarization are indicated.
All other parameters are set automatically. After this, the search engine program finds the required channel, and if everything is correct, then the operation must be confirmed and exit the settings menu.
Important! In order to avoid certain failures in the future, so that the necessary programs do not disappear from time to time, it is worth updating the selected packages. For this purpose, you just need to visit Settings.
