1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 Introduction

This operator manual describes the functions of the automatic satellite system and how to operate it. Please
observe the installation instructions provided in the installation manual supplied with the system.
Correct and safe operation of the system can only be ensured if both the installation manual and the operator
manual are observed.
Your automatic satellite system is a smart satellite TV reception system that automatically aims itself at a preset
satellite as long as the system is located within the footprint of this satellite.
Please ensure that the system always has a clear view to the south. Seen from Europe, all satellites are more or
less located in the South.
If the satellite's signal beam is interrupted by obstacles such as mountains, buildings or trees, automatic aiming
will not work and no TV signal will be received. (See 5.1: "Reception in practice – aiming the satellite system")
The first pages of this manual explain the general system functions, followed by an explanation of the setup
options.
Before switching on the system, make sure that the opening antenna does not face any obstacles such as
branches or garage door.

1.3 Intended use

This product has been designed for permanent installation on mobile homes or camper trailers with a permissible
maximum speed of 150 km/h.
It is designed to automatically aim a vehicle-mounted antenna at geostationary television satellites transmitting
directly to Europe. This requires the vehicle to be at standstill.
Power to the system must be supplied by a standard vehicle electric system with a rated voltage of 12/24 V DC.
Do not use a switching-mode power supply if the system is to be installed in a camper trailer. Using the equip-
ment for any other than its intended purpose is not permissible.
When the system is connected to the on-board electric system, a suitable fuse must be provided in the on-board
circuit.
