2. During the booting process (approx. 15-30 seconds), all satellite LEDs on the front of
the control unit light up.
3. After the control unit is ready for operation, the last used satellite is automatically
selected and searched for.
4. During the search for the satellite, the TRACKING LED lights up every time a satellite is
found. If it is not the one selected, the antenna will search further. This process takes
about 1-2 minutes.

ceed as follows:
1. Press the SET button for at least 5 seconds until the TRACKING and LOCK LEDs start
flashing.
2. Resetting the system takes about 3 seconds. The control unit restarts and returns to
the motion mode.
You can set up your DiSEqC settings in your receiver. This has the advantage that the
antenna automatically aligns itself to another satellite. Change to the channel list of your
receiver, For example, from Astra to Hotbird, the antenna is self-directed to the satellite.
