Adjusting the LNB Skew Angle (Linear Only)
Unless your antenna is equipped with automatic skew, you need to
manually adjust the LNB’s skew angle to optimize signal reception
whenever you change your geographic location or select a different
satellite. (To learn more about skew, see
.) To set the skew angle, follow these steps:
1.
Launch the Setup Wizard from the web interface (go to Settings
> General Settings).
2.
Unless the TracVision antenna is receiving position
information from a NMEA device, manually enter your current
position at the Setup Wizard.
3.
At the Setup Wizard, note the displayed skew angle for the
selected satellite.
4.
Turn off the TV-Hub to remove power from the TracVision
antenna.
5.
Remove the Phillips-head screws securing the radome to the
antenna. Then carefully lift the radome straight up until clear
of the antenna assembly and set it aside in a safe place.
NOTE: Do not place the radome on a hot metal surface – the heat may warp
the radome.

CAUTION
For your own safety, make sure the TracVision system is powered
off before you perform any work on the antenna.
