B- How to connect the cable to the antenna and the set top box?
It is important that the coaxial cable does not become damaged
or Kinked during the instrallation procedure.
Step 4: Antenna Pointing Menu
Once all connected, turn on your TV
and your Satellite receiver.
Select the Antenna Pointing Menu on
your set top box.
This image shows the Signal level and
the screen you will see on your TV.
Do not forget to choose "LNB : ON"
You will need someone to stay in front
of the TV to tell you when the signal is
"good" while you're outside trying to
adjust the antenna the best way possible.
Step 5: Pointing and locating the Signal
(first without Attenuation Thin Pad)
Once all installed and connected, you may take off the Attenuation Thin Pad from the
antenna (and keep to one side for step 6) and then start adjusting your antenna in order to
receive a signal. For that, you will need to move your antenna in three different ways in
order to receive the maximum signal level & best reception quality.
A- Cross Polarisation Tilt: or Skew Angle is to tilt the antenna
B- Elevation: Move your antenna vertically (Up/down)
C- Azimuth: Turn antenna on a horizontal plain (left/right)
Whatever your choice of mount type, you will be able to adjust your antenna easily by
following these instructions.
Note: To adjust the antenna with precision and to allow a good reception (even in bad weather), professional
installers use a "signal meter". This indicates the level of signal strength received. Only the use of this measuring
device guarantees an optimum adjustment.
A- Cross Polarizsation (Skew Angle) :
Obtain the Skew Angle of the chosen satellite, from the lists in this manual which cover
many European countries & big cities, Tilt your antenna to the specified degree by looking
to the degree graduation located on the back of the antenna bracket. Once achieved,
tighten both screws connecting the Skew Bracket (B1) to the Antenna Body (A1).
