Quick Guide for Professional Installers
This section is an overview of the installation information contained in
this booklet designed for the experienced professional installer.
AdventistSat equipment is preprogrammed to receive Adventist
Television and Radio Services on satellite AMC4. No activation is
necessary.
Perform a thorough site survey using the included dish aiming
coordinates for Adventist Satellite System. The dish will be aimed at
the DirecTV 101w location. Verify line of site for AMC4 101w.
Install the dish on either the universal roof/wall mounting post or
mounted on a steel post set in concrete. It is very important to have the
post perfectly plumb before mounting the dish. Mast tripod support legs
MUST
be installed if the dish is mounted with the included universal
post mount.
Failure to install the tripod support legs will result in a
Charge Back to the contracted installer.
Install the LNBF into LNBF clamp. The LNBF should be slid in
the clamp away from the reflector. Align the LNBF centering marks
with the LNBF rotation scale numbers on the LNBF clamp. Standing
in front of the dish looking towards the reflector, a Positive (+) LNBF
Rotation is counter clockwise (left), Negative (-) is clockwise (right).
The LNBF clamp has marking for 0°, -20° and +20° degrees. Each
mark is equal to 5°. If the aiming coordinates specify a rotation greater
than 20°, estimate the additional number of degrees needed and set the
LNBF rotation to the approximate angle.

Before assembling the satellite dish, lay the reflector
on a flat surface.
Verify that the reflector has not
been warped
in shipping. If the edges do not lie
flat, hold the dish like a steering wheel and rapidly
flex the reflector away from your body. Repeat if
needed until the edges lay perfectly flat.
