Connecting the antenna and performing basic alignment

Before aligning the satellite antenna, you must first connect the antenna cable to the LNB.
Refer also to the user guide for your satellite antenna.
Warning!
Do not connect the receiver to the power supply until you have connected the dish cable
to the receiver.
Screw the F-connector onto the connection for the LNB.
If you have not yet installed and aligned your satellite system, you must first find a suitable
location to install your antenna. When selecting a location, keep in mind that the antenna
must point to the southeast. This means you must have a clear line of sight to the south-
east when standing behind your antenna. Note that the antenna must not be mounted
behind a balcony railing, roof overhang, or any other obstruction (such as a tree).
You can use the position of the sun to locate the south. The sun's location is true south
at noon during summer time and at one o'clock during winter time.
This is the field of view you must have when standing behind the antenna.
Nearly all common satellites, such as ASTRA1 19.2°E, Eutelsat Hotbird 13 °E and Türksat
42 °E, are positioned within this 90° angle.
