2.3 Batterycheck
As the instrument has been stored for some time before transportation it is important to check
the battery-condition. To do this, turn the meter on by pressing down the left (red) control
button for about a second.
When starting the instrument, the LCD and the blue LEDs turns on. The meter starts in
Signalmeter-mode. The loudspeaker (beeper function) is off when the instrument is turned on.
The LCD-display shows, in the shape of a battery, the status of the battery condition, see picture
below. The capacity is 100% when the battery symbol is filled and 0% when the symbol is
empty.
If the battery needs recharging, use the power-supply enclosed.
NOTE, the instrument should be turned off when the battery is recharged.
Recharging from discharged battery to about 85% capacity takes aprox. 3 hours.
3 Functions
3.1 Connection and installing a satellite dish – Signalmeter mode
When the battery is charged the instrument is ready to use.
Connection of coaxial-cable and LNB is preferably done when the instrument is turned off.
In case of connecting when the instrument is on and if a short-circuit occur, it's no harm done
due to the fact that the instrument is protected against such a failure and will automatically turn
off itself. After correcting the problem, restart the instrument and it will operate normally.
The instrument starts in the Signalmeter-mode which makes it easy to detect the satellite/s
You're looking for.
Two LNBs can be connected and measured at at the same time (LNB-A and LNB-B).
However, the Digital readout can only be done on LNB-A (read more about Digital readout in
the next section of the manual).
If You want to switch on the loudspeaker function (beeper), place the marker with help of the
large control knob on the "BEEPER"– position and push the right (black) control button.
When a satellite is received, the signal bar immediately shows "a higher temperature" which
increases as the signal is getting stronger (see picture on page 6).
