You'll get all EPGs of all programs on the currently selected 
transponder. One transponder tranmits more than one channel.
If you switch the transponder (not just the channel)
you may have to wait some seconds until the EPG will be completed.

The "EPG scan" switches the unused automatically from transponder to
transponder to collect all EPGs of all transponders to avoid
this little delay.
