Setting Up The Temporary Stand And Selecting A Site; Assembling The Test Components - RCA DSA112NW Installer's Manual

Testing the System
Setting Up the Temporary Stand
1. Choose a location for the system test. Here are some
considerations:
• You must test the system outside
• you'll need a flat surface for the temporary stand
• the site you pick for the test must have an unobstructed view
to the satellite
• the site you pick for the test should be close to a window or
door near your TV (so you can easily see and hear the on-
screen signal meter).
2. Find a temporary stand for the dish and place it in the site
you've chosen for the test. The stand must be sturdy enough
to support the weight of the dish and remain level when the
dish is placed on top of it. Consider using:
• a workbench or wooden base (using clamps to hold the mast
foot)
• a level sidewalk or driveway (using a second person to hold
the mast foot).
Once you've found a location and a temporary stand, you can
assemble the dish and test the system.

Assembling the Test Components

1. Loosen the nuts on the mounting foot so that the mast
rotates easily.
2. Hold the mounting foot so it lays on a flat surface, then
rotate the mast all the way back until the top part is vertical.
