Find a location for the dish antenna with a clear line of sight and a sturdy mounting surface. Mount the mast, making sure it is absolutely vertical. Attach struts to the mast, using the strut instructions. Assemble the dish antenna, setting the skew and elevation angles in the process.
- Page 11 Fine-Tuning Elevation and Azimuth Using the elevation rod, fine-tune the elevation angle to achieve maximum signal using the following sweep and count method. Using a 1/2” wrench, loosen the top elevation nut to allow the dish to be moved up and down in elevation. о...
- Page 12 2-8d 1000.4 Dish - Assembly, Pointing, and Peaking Rotate the cam clockwise until the highest possible signal is reached, repeat rotations if necessary. о IMPORTANT: Do not tighten the azimuth fine-tune cam. о Tighten the three azimuth plate bolts labeled with a ‘T’ and reconfirm signal using the push pull method. Complete Assembly Connect the receiver cable(s) to the DPP 1000.4 LNBF PORT 1 (and PORT 2 and PORT 3, as necessary).
