To move the antenna, use P+/P- to highlight the option "Azimuth"
(rotation, direction) or "Elevation" (angle). Use the +/- keys to move the
antenna in increments into the selected direction. The change of the
antenna direction will be displayed in the direction indication window.
Please note that the indicated directional values relate to your vehicle
and are not actual geographic degrees — i.e. previous values are invalid
after you have moved the vehicle!
If you wish to move the antenna over a greater range, the increments
can be increased. To increase the increments, highlight "Azimuth" or
"Elevation" and press key 1 to 9 of the remote control. The increment
range will be displayed in the direction indication window following
the degree value. The highest number will create the largest increment.
In order to fine-tune a position, use increments of 1 or 2.
Select
Store Position
and press OK to store the current position. The
current position is stored immediately. If you switch off the system
now or retract the antenna, it will return to this position the next time
the system is switched on. Accordingly, if you were receiving a picture
when you activated the function
Store Position
and you have not
moved the vehicle since, you will again receive a picture only seconds
after switching the system back on.
From the menu
Manual search
you can also retract the antenna at any
time. Highlight "Retract" and press OK. The antenna retracts, its
movement is displayed in the direction indicator window. At an
elevation of approx. —73° the antenna is fully retracted, but the system
will not yet switch off. To return the antenna to its stored position,
select "Last Position" and press OK. This function is useful to manually
open a previously retracted antenna.
When a DVB-T (optional) channel has been selected, an optimization of
the satellite antenna is not required. DVB-T is received by a separate
antenna. A corresponding message is hence displayed when the manual
search is started while a DVB-T channel is active.
Press EXIT at any time if you wish to exit the
Manual search
menu. If
the antenna is still moving while the menu is being exited, the antenna
is stopped.
