6. CONNECTING THE RECEIVER
GB
Depending on which satellite you want to receive, you need a clear line of sight within
this angle. This is especially important when mounting your antenna on a wall. Before
mounting a suitable wall bracket (may not be included in the package) on your house, make
sure you can rotate your antenna through its full range without hitting the wall.
Once you have set up all of the connections, you can begin setting up your antenna. Please
double-check to make sure the receiver is connected to the LNB on the antenna and to
your TV set. If these cable connections have been made correctly, you can switch on the
equipment.
Step one:
Turn on your TV set. Make sure your TV is synchronised with the receiver. If you are
using a SCART connection, the TV must be tuned to the correct AV channel.
Step two:
Now turn on the receiver. Remember that the receiver is pre-programmed for the most
common satellites and their channels. Therefore, all you need to do is enter the channel
number using the number keypad on the remote control.
Example:
If you want to receive ASTRA1 19.2°E, set your receiver to channel number 1 to position
the antenna. The same applies for other satellites, such as Hotbird. If you want to point
your antenna to Hotbird, set your receiver to a pre-programmed Hotbird channel.
Step three:
Now point your antenna to the satellites you have selected. There are several ways you
can do this. The following is the easiest, least expensive way:
Stand behind your antenna and place it in a completely vertical position (see drawing B).
Make sure the reception unit of your dish is pointing south (see drawing A).
