CONNECTING YOUR PRECISION SYSTEM
Many satellite receivers only have a single satellite input. If so, only connect one of the cables to this
port and leave the other one dis-connected.
Do not connect the spare cable to LOOP OUT, If using for Foxtel IQ or MyStar, connect to ports
labelled LNB1 and LNB2 only
Twin LNB - (If you have a twin model only)
Note: A twin LNB system can also be connected to 2 receivers. Or 2 TV's with in-built sat tuners.
NOTE - If you do not have any power to the built in finder on the Precision dish, swap the cables
around at the back of the satellite receiver box.

(A) Elevation
The angle between the earth's surface and a particular satellite at a
given reception point. This is the vertical angle adjustment of your dish.
The elevation angle increases the closer you travel towards the equator.
(B) Azimuth
The angle between true north and a particular satellite. This is limited
on your Precision Tripod Kit as all Australia TV satellites are near North.
Skew
This is the rotational position of an LNB on the dish arm.
Skew can be used to maximise signal in fringe reception areas.
Line Of Sight
This is a straight line between your satellite dish antenna and the
satellite. The line between the two needs to be clear, as anything
blocking the path will result in a signal disruption. See page 11.
LNB (Low Noise Block)
The device which receives and collects the satellite signal reflected
from the dish.
