Offset Parabolic Antennas
Installing the Reflector
1. Fold down the feed arm and screw it on using the star knob
screw
①
(Fig. 4).
2. Screw the reflector to the support arm using 4 or 6 screws
②
(Fig. 4).
Installing the Mast Clamps
1. Loosen the winged nuts and bring the threaded U-bolt and
threaded clamp into installation position (Fig. 4).
2. Attach the parabolic reflector to the mast or boom, at first
loosely. Later on, the parabolic reflector will have to be
aligned with respect to the azimuth.
3. Tighten the screw connectors between mast clamp and
antenna support finger-tight, loosen if required. Later on, the
parabolic reflector will have to be aligned with respect to the
elevation angle.
Installing the Feed System Support
1. Loosen the M5 screw (
①
in Fig. 5).
2. Fold open the feed system support.
3. Insert the feed system.
4. Close the feed system support and tighten the screw slightly.
The feed system may need to be set to the polarisation.
Refer to the instructions for use of the feed system.
Feed System (LNB)
The feed system(s) and instructions for their installation are not
included in the scope of supply of the parabolic antenna.
For more detailed information on their correct installation, refer
to the manuals supplied with the respective feed system.
Example for the installation positions for a multifeed application
with up to 6° satellite spacing using the multifeed bracket KEZ
02 (only possible with KEA 750/850/1000):
