Checking the antenna pointing
Perform the following checks to make sure the antenna will resist external movements (wind...):
1
Make sure all bolts are
tightly secured
.
2
Shortly place your hand between the iLNB and the dish. As soon as you remove your hand,
you should hear the continuous high pitch tone again.

Apply some pressure on the antenna to make the edges move about 3 cm on the left hand
side, right hand side and at the top, then release it.
If the antenna is still pointing correctly, you will hear the continuous high pitch tone again. If
not, repeat the pointing procedure from the section
Rough pointing: horizontal
(azimuth) (page 36)
until you obtain optimal signal.

When the antenna is pointing correctly, the message
Correct satellite - pointed
optimallly
is displayed on the screen of your PC, as shown in the following picture.
