Under normal conditions, the SATPOS20 will acquire the correct
satellite and produce television programming in less than 1 minute.
To minimize the time it takes the antenna system acquiring the
satellite, do not change the channel during the startup process.
3.2.1 Power on
3.2.2 Changing Channels
If you have followed the installation instructions, your system should be set to
the satellite of your choice and the system should have downloaded the
appropriate channel guides. When the SATPOS20 system and satellite
receiver is properly configured, it is easy to change the channel using the
remote control that normally comes with the receiver unit.
3.2.3 Watching TV at stationary location
The SATPOS20 is designed to operate as efficiently and as reliably as possible
when the vehicle is parked. It is also the quickest satellite acquisition system
available among the Dome Positioner antennas. After parking the vehicle and
confirming that the antenna is receiving the satellite signal, you may turn off
the IDU to avoid unnecessary use of power. Because the LNB receives its
power from the ODU, and the antenna will continue to receive the satellite TV
signals and relay them to the receiver

3.2.3 Memorizing the satellite position
Your new SATPOS20 system has a built-in function that remembers the posi-
tion of satellite which has been tracked and acquired. If you move a vehicle
from the location where you have watched satellite TV programs, pressing Sat
Locate button will make satellite acquisition fast without the full search.
The SATPOS20 system is easy to use.
Under normal conditions, operation of the SATPOS20 requires no
intervention from the user. Antenna unit initialization and satellite
acquisition is completely automatic.
The vehicle should be stationary for start-up and watch TV.
