CableScan: all eight settings

Menu → Setup → Tuners, Scanning & Reception → Cable Scan opens the additional CableScan module where installed. It reads tables from a compatible cable provider. General automatic and manual DVB-C scans remain separate methods.

Form from the installed plugin. 330 MHz, 6900 and Network ID 0 are displayed starting values, not universal provider parameters. No cable scan was performed. Open original image ↗

Setting	What to enter or decide
Tuner	DVB-C-capable frontend connected to the cable network
Frequency	Provider entry carrier; this form uses MHz
Symbol rate	This carrier’s rate in kSym/s
Modulation	QAM value from the provider
Network ID	Correct regional network identifier; 0 does not replace a known required ID
Use official channel numbering	Adopt numbering from provider tables
HD list	Choose the HD variant where supplied
Enable auto cable scan	Enable later automatic updates; tied to standby handling in the reviewed plugin

Up/down selects a row; left/right or number keys change values. OK starts scanning and saves its configuration. The Save action saves settings; EXIT/Cancel closes the dialog. Labels can vary with skin and key assignments.

The automatic variant waits for standby; it does not create an independent cron job. Do not assume that this option alone guarantees wakeup from deep standby. Complete one successful manual CableScan first, then enable automation and account for recordings.

If the provider or its tables are unsupported, use its parameters with a normal DVB-C scan. For no results, check input, lock, entry frequency, QAM, symbol rate and network identifier first. A DVB-C/T2 hybrid input must receive the cable source during the scan; see the SPAUN example.
