If your SATLOOK Mark IV Free To Air is not showing the signal band and digital FTA scanner, follow these steps:
1. Check Antenna Configuration – Ensure that the antenna settings, such as LNB Type, LNB Frequencies, DiSEqC Switch, and 22KHz Tone, are correctly configured in the menu.
2. Verify Signal Reception – Use the signal receiving status diagram in the menu to check if the signal level is too low. If the status shows "bad," adjust the transponder frequency, symbol rate, or polarization.
3. Enable Digital Free To Air Receiver – Press button number 3 to turn on the Digital FTA Receiver. The right point in the LED digits should indicate that it is on.
4. Use Spectrum Function – Activate the frequency-spectrum mode to check if the instrument is detecting any signals. Adjust the marker using the knob and push the button again to expand the spectrum.
5. Check Power Supply to LNB – Ensure that the LNB power (13V/18V) is correctly set and turned on.
6. Adjust Tuning Indication – Press button number 4 to activate tuning and check if the signal-strength value appears on the two-digit LED display.
If the issue persists, verify all cable connections and settings to ensure proper configuration.
