3. Function
The satellite finder provides you with an easily readable scale to find the optimal position for your satellite system. The signal strength is also indicated by a buzzer, so that you can fully concentrate on the installation.
4. Connection and start up
Note: The satellite finder is intended for precise adjustment and optimization of the receiving signal. You have to determine the satellite and its position first and roughly align the satellite dish accordingly. You can use a compass or a more comfortable satellite finder app for smartphones.
First disconnect the receiver or the multi-switch from the power supply. Then connect the satellite finder with the cable coming from the receiver or the multi- switch. The appropriate connector on the reverse side is labelled “to REC”. Link the connection cable included with the opposite connector on the satellite finder and the connector on your Low Noise Block (LNB). Ensure that the sensitivity control dial is set to minimum sensitivity. Thereafter, connect the receiver or multi-switch to the power mains and switch on the receiver so that the Low Noise Block and the satellite finder can be powered up. Roughly align the satellite dish and then set the sensitivity so that the pointer on the scale stops approximately at Value 5. Perform the fine adjustment of the satellite dish. Move the LNB until the needle on the scale points to a higher value. Reduce the sensitivity on the rotary controller until the needle has moved back to the middle of the scale and the LNB can be adjusted even more accurately. Repeat these steps several times until the optimal position has been reached. Fasten the satellite dish to ensure that its position can no longer be changed. The alignment has now been completed.
Note: The reception signal is too high for the satellite finder when the pointer jumps to the maximum value. Lower the sensitivity at the rotary controller in this case. An attenuation unit or an attenuation controller between the LNB and the satellite finder may be required when you use a very large satellite dish or a high-performance LNB.
5. Control displays
If you operate a multi-user SAT system with Quattro LNB, you need to measure the polarisation plane (13V vertical, 18V horizontal) to find the correct connection to the multi-switch. The control display enables you to determine the polarisation. The satellite finder also has LEDs to indicate the switch signal (22 KHz on / 0 Hz off).
