You will see a blinking

symbol on the right-hand side of the display that indicates the status of the GPS location.
If it is blinking, the system is searching for the GPS location. When the symbol is continuously displayed, the
system has determined its GPS location.
We recommend waiting to press the start button until the system has determined the GPS location. The time
needed for the determination of the GPS location is approximately 1 minute (see also next remark).
After determination of the correct GPS location, the system will be able to find the satellite more quickly. It also
provides for the opportunity to set the correct LNB position to ensure optimal reception.
The correct position of the LNB is shown on the display for each satellite, which may differ per selected satellite.
When the GPS location has not been found (yet), by default this position will be 0.
Remark:
In case of a weak GPS signal, it might not be possible to determine the location, in which case the system can be
used as normal. However, finding the satellite will take longer and the optimal position of the LNB will not be
provided. If the GPS signal improves during satellite search the system will adjust automatically.
You can easily browse through the pre-programmed
satellites step by step. By means of the arrow buttons
located on the control module (buttons 4 and 5), For each
satellite the correct LNB position is shown on the display.
Select the desired satellite, read off the corresponding LNB position from the display, and bring the LNB into this
position by turning the LNB holder accordingly (see image below).
