Aligning the Antenna

The antenna must be exactly aligned towards the satellite in 

respect of both the direction (azimuth) and also the inclination 

(elevation). For multi-feed applications the antenna should be 

aligned towards the satellite which is transmitting the weakest 

signal level.

a.  Adjusting the inclination (elevation)

Use an allen wrench SW5 (

) supplied with the parabolic 

antenna to slacken the two screws on each side of the 

inclination scale 

(elevation) on the

 left and right

 of the 

support.

Do not slacken the upper nuts (

) on the bra-

cket – these are factory-set to a fi xed tighte-

ning torque.

Then adjust the 

inclination

 (elevation) – the exact eleva-

tion angle for your location can be found in the manual 

for the feed system (LNB). 

When doing this, retighten fi rst just one of the bolts on 

the inclination scale fi nger-tight (

).

b.  Setting the direction (azimuth)

If you yourself are unable whilst performing the adjustments 

to read the results of the alignment work on an 

antenna 

meter

 or 

screen

 connected to the satellite receiver, you may 

need an assistant for the following steps. The precise align-

ment of the antenna can be achieved only if a digital antenna 

meter is used. Ask your dealer about this.

Set the satellite receiver to a known channel so that you 

can check that you have really “locked on” to the desired 

satellite.

Now slightly loosen the wing nuts on the mast clamp (

).

Twist the antenna so that it faces roughly south. Then 

slowly twist the antenna about its central axis to left and 

right until the best reception is obtained for the selected 

channel.

Then tighten the 

wing nuts

 initially just enough to pre-

vent the antenna turning.

polarisation angle (PW)

Multiple feed systems (multi-feed)

To optimise the multi-feed reception, the tiltable support 

“H” should be tilted to the angle “V” according to the table 

attached to this document.
The polarisation angle on the respective feed system must be 

set according to the following formula.
PW

 = polarisation angle to be set

PW

TAB

 = polarisation angle of the selected satellite according 

to the table in the LNB user instructions
V = setting angle of the support according to the selected 

satellite combination of the attached table
With the settings and the calculation, pay attention to 

preceding signs!
In order to be able to tilt the support you must fi rst use the 

hexagon key to slacken the bolt shown arrowed in the illus-

tration on the right.
