  • Page 7: Safety Instructions - Important Notes

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES Safety during installation work When carrying out installation work in locations where there is a risk of falling, take appropriate safety precautions, e.g. use of a working platform. Make sure that the vehicle roof is suffi ciently strong and stable to carry out the installation work (risk of damage or collapsing of roof).
  • Page 8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES Road Traffi c Licensing Regulations (StVZO) The applicable regulations of the StVZO must be observed in respect of fi xed installation of the turntable on a vehicle which is driven on public highways. In particular, §§ 19/2; 30 C; 32 (2) and the EC directive 74/483 EEC are applicable. Briefl...
  • Page 9 The antenna must always be lowered into horizontal position (park position) while driving. As a reminder, attach the sticker from the supplementary sheet “Lower the CAP 910 antenna while driving” where it can easily be seen by the person operating the ignition switch.

  • Page 10: Installation And Connection

    UNPACKING AND PREPARATION The CAP 910 must not be carried on the satellite dish, since this can cause the dish to distort. Keep the device in its cardboard box for transport on to the vehicle roof. Only take the turntable out of its packaging when it is on the vehicle roof.
  • Page 11 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION • When selecting the installation position, take into account the range of movement of the turntable (see the grey shaded area in the graphics). Within this grey area there must be no structures on the roof that would obstruct this movement (risk of collision). For safety, keep at least the required area of 1024 x 1250 mm free (for ease of installation and any subsequent dismantling).

    INSTALLATION OF CABLE GLAND AND MOUNTING PLATE Note: If you had previously used a Kathrein HDM 140/141 jointed tripod mast or another mast with a diameter of 34 mm, you can continue using the existing through hole in the roof (if space allows).
  • Page 13 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION • For very thin roof panel materials and insuffi cient support in the insulating material, through holes (Ø: 5.5 mm) into the interior of the vehicle are necessary; galvanised M5 round head screws of suffi cient length should then be used. Make sure that you use a suffi...

  • Page 15 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION Figure: E1 Master coaxial cable (marked red) Figure: E2 Sealing gasket • Lift up the turntable and place it carefully on the mounting plate facing in the direction of travel (see illustrations Fig. E) (do not step on the plug connectors and do not kink/crush the cables!) The through holes on the turntable must be perfectly aligned with the threaded holes on the mounting plate.
  • Page 16 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION • To prevent water vapour from inside the vehicle reaching the turntable through the roof gland, thread the three cables through the sealing gasket supplied (see Fig. E2), close the gasket and insert it into the roof gland until it reaches the stop. Make sure that no tensile load is acting downwards on the sealing gasket as this can cause it to fall out in the course of time.
  • Page 17 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION Initially tighten the coaxial cable plugs fi nger-tight, using no tools, then tighten them lightly using an open-ended SW 11 spanner. Do not try to pull the cables from the unit. This could damage the cables or loosen the cable connections. •...

  • Page 28: Manual Lowering To Park Position

    MANUAL LOWERING TO PARK POSITION If a defect arises in the electronic controls, after some disassembly work the antenna can be returned to the park position (horizontal position) manually. Following this however, recalibration by an authorised workshop is always necessary. Driving to the nearest workshop with the antenna extended at a moderate speed and taking into account the increase (+ 77 cm) in the vehicle height is an option and is preferable to manual lowering!
