Installation Advice - Metronic zapbox twin Manual

1 - Installation advice

Foreword
Your Zapbox twin terminal allows you to receive satellite digital channels, as well as
Freeview (terrestrial) channels. In the case of satellite channels, these can be pre-programmed.
Your Zapbox twin receiver therefore includes satellite channels which you can start viewing
immediately, if a satellite dish has already been installed. Please be aware that the frequency
of terrestrial channels varies from one region to another. You will therefore need to search for
these channels.
To make this manual easier to read, the installation procedure has been divided in two
parts. First, you will start by installing the receiver and the satellite dish only. The terrestrial
installation is carried out in the second part (page 15).
A - Choice of the location and satellite dish assembling
Whatever your choice of installation, your fixing must be stable and vertical.
In the event of an obstacle, respect the rule of distances explained below.
Eg : if the dish is 3 meters above the ground, and a 7m high tree might hide the satellite, the
tree must be at least 6m far from the dish (7-3=4, 4x1,5=6).
For the satellite dish assembly, look at the assembly sheet provided with the satellite dish.
CAUTION: Please handle the satellite dish with caution because its fringes may be
sharp.
