7. Setting a satellite dish
In order to connect external equipment including a satellite dish and converter, use the installation
instructions or assistance from expert - installer!
The precise setting antenna is the basis for good reception. Even the best
antenna, which is ill-adjusted will cause problems with quality. Even small
mistakes can prevent the receipt or very worsen its quality. Before the
installation, make sure whether the place lends itself to that. The competent
direction can be pre-determined by comparing with other antennas.
Immediately before the antenna can not be any obstacles cover seeking to
signal the dish! When you are choosing the best place for the antenna, to
attach and it initially set, it still must be carefully adjusted. Each antenna is
enabling regulatory adjustment screws in vertical position and level.
In digital receivers regulation is difficult. Settings can no be done base on
picture, because it appears with delay. Also available indicators in the menu settings receiver typically
operate with a delay, so the regulation can take a long time and be very inaccurate. For the antenna
setting is necessary some meter antenna signal. Meter turns on a cable television converter between a
receiver. We will confirm the presence of switch voltage converter with a tuner, and will show the size
of the signal to satellites encountered. We invite you to benefit from expert assistance - installer!
