Read the installation advice, and particulary the paragraph E (page 5).
Connections
The receiver must be disconnected from the power supply, connect directly the LNB to the
receiver LNB input. Connect the television to the receiver scart socket output. Switch on
the television and connect the receiver to the power supply. A point appears on the Recei-
ver display. Press on the
key. The starting sequence appears on the receiver display,
which is: display of “ON” then switch off, then “ON” appears again, then “SCAN”, then
“ON” then finally 0001. If the television does not display a black screen with a message “
No signal “, checks the scart leads connections and/or force the A/V or EXT mode of your
television (see your TV user manual).
Alignment / Satellite dish orientation
• Find in Table 1 (page 5) the satellite reference channel number that you wish to recei-
ve (example: 072 = ZDF if you would like to receive HotBird). Type on the remote con-
trol the channel number.
• The screen stays black or you can read no signal. Press on the remote control the
INFO key (i) to show the reception gauge level at the bottom of the screen (see pic-
tures underneath). The blue line show the level of signal, and the red line show the
level of quality. On the example underneath, the signal is not enough on the left (black
screen, quality line zero) and the signal is correct on the right (ZDF image on the
screen and quality almost at its maximum).
• Put the satellite dish vertically (the graduations on the back indicate 20-25°) and
roughly direct it towards the south. Make a slow sweeping (about 20 seconds) of a
quarter of spin on the left then a quarter of spin on the right while checking on the
television. The indicator should not show anything at this stage.
• Incline the satellite dish for 2 degrees (about 2cm on the top of the satellite dish)
towards the top and then start again the sweeping.
• Proceed by 2 degrees step until the indicator goes up and that the channel appears.
When the channel appears, adjust the alignment (vertically and horizontally) to get
the maximum of signal. Tighten all the screws definitively, except those, which fix
the LNB in its support.
Note: The size of the level indicator does not really matter. What does matter is the variation when
you move the satellite dish. When the signal is going up a bit, stop the sweeping to see if
the quality line increase.
