    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 collapse of roof).
  • Page 7 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, this applies to §§ 19/2; 30 C; 32 (2) and the EC directive 74/483 EEC. Briefl...
  • Page 8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES Checks before commencing a journey • Before commencing a journey, the antenna must always be lowered into horizontal position (park position). If the antenna collides with a fi xed or moving object, you must check that it is still securely attached.
  • Page 9: Installation And Connection

    INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION REQUIRED TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT • Circular cutter, Ø 38 mm • Flat-bladed screwdriver for M5 screws • Drilling machine • Galvanised raised head screws, depending on roof structure (Ø: 5 mm, sheet metal screws D 7981, depending on roof panel structure) or raised head screws D 7985 with shims and nuts •...
  • Page 10 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).

    INSTALLATION OF CABLE GLAND AND MOUNTING PLATE Note: If you have previously used a Kathrein HDM140/141 fl exible satellite mast or another mast with a diameter of 34 mm, you can continue using the existing gland hole in the roof (if space allows).
  • Page 12 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION • For very thin roof panel materials and insuffi cient purchase in the insulating material, through holes (Ø: 5.5 mm) into the interior of the vehicle are necessary; galvanised M5 raised head screws of suffi cient length should then be used. Make sure that you use a suffi...

    INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION LAYING CABLES AND CONNECTING THE TURNTABLE • Lay the master coaxial cable (marked red) to the UFS 740sw and the second coaxial cable to the second receiver. If you are not using a second receiver, we recommend that you lay the second coaxial cable in any case, so that it is available should you ever need it.
  • Page 19: Functional Instructions For Connection To The On-Board Power Supply

    INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION Only for connection in a motor home, not in a caravan! • The third, green connecting cable, marked “IGNITION” allows you the option of connection to a circuit in the vehicle that is activated when the ignition key is turned and then carries a continuous 12 V supply. This type of connection ensures that when the engine is started the antenna is automatically lowered into the park position (the receiver does not need to be turned on).

  • Page 23: Manual Lowering To Park Position

    MANUAL LOWERING TO PARK POSITION If a defect arises in the electronic controls, after some disassembly work the satellite dish 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 (+ 77cm) in the vehicle height is an option and is preferable to manual lowering!
  • Page 24: Manual Lowering

    MANUAL LOWERING TO PARK POSITION MANUAL LOWERING In the centre of the antenna (arrowed) there are two plastic caps, one to the left and one to the right. Lever them off with a narrow fl at-bladed screwdriver. Behind each cap is an M8 hexagon head screw. Unscrew these using a 13 mm socket wrench.

  • Page 33: Alignment (Satellite Search)

    ALIGNMENT (SATELLITE SEARCH) The antenna is aligned automatically. After the UFS 740 has been switched on, the turntable automatically moves to the last channel received and the associated satellite position (e.g. ARD/ASTRA). This works because every satellite broadcasts its own identifi cation signal, which is automatically identifi ed by the turntable.
  • Page 34: Manual Correction

    ALIGNMENT (SATELLITE SEARCH) MANUAL CORRECTION At the margins of the footprints of a satellite (e.g. after a slight change of position), it may be necessary for you to manually correct the setting (not normally required). It is also possible to manually correct the fi ne tuning.
