Proper use

Proper use

Intended purpose

The MobiSet 3 digital CAP 310 is designed to receive digital TV and radio programs via satellite. The turntable is intended for the Kathrein planar antenna BAS 60. This antenna can be used to receive digital TV and radio signals in the frequency range from 10.70 to 12.75 GHz; the antenna cannot receive terrestrial signals (e.g. DVB-T).

The turntable can only be used in conjunction with a Kathrein UFD 170 combi receiver or the Kathrein UFD 540 digital receiver and HDS 160 control unit. In conjunction with these two receivers, the turntable provides fully automatic alignment of the planar antenna to receive digital satellite signals. The turntable is designed for use in stationary caravans or motorhomes.

Any use other than that specified above will void the warranty or guarantee.

The following circumstances result in the loss of all warranty and liability claims towards the manufacturer:

 

Improper installation

 

Use of non-specified mounting materials, which cannot guarantee

 

 

the mechanical reliability of the antenna system

 

• Non-permissible use, e.g. use of the planar antenna for storage

 

• Structural changes or interference with the components and mounting

 

 

accessories in the set, which could endanger both the mechanical

 

 

and functional reliability

 

• Improper or forcible opening of the components

 

• Use of cleaners containing solvents, such as acetone, nitro-cellulose

 

 

combination thinner, naphtha etc.

 

• Failure to observe installation and safety instructions in this manual

Note:

The maximum permissible speed for vehicles with a BAS 60/HDP 171

 

receiver unit mounted on the roof is 130 km/h. Before commencing

 

a journey, the planar antenna must always be lowered into horizontal

 

position (park position).

 

The turntable may be operated in an ambient temperature range of

 

-10 °C to +40 °C. Operating the system outside these ranges can

 

result in malfunctions or damage to the system.

Installation instructions

The turntable may only be assembled by qualified specialist personnel.

To prevent hazards during installation, operation or when driving on public highways, the instructions and information in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Proper installation and connection of the system are pre-requisites for conformity with the corresponding standards.

Safety instructions - important notes

Safety during installation work

When carrying out installation work in locations with a risk of falling, take appropriate safety precautions, e.g. use of a working platform. Make sure that the vehicle roof is sufficiently strong and stable to carry out the installation work (risk of damage or collapse of roof).

In case of doubt, contact a qualified specialist dealer or the manufacturer of your vehicle to find an appropriate installation location.

Make sure that:

-The antenna and connected units are disconnected from the power

-The person carrying out the installation does not suffer from vertigo and can move around safely on the roof of the caravan or motorhome

-The person carrying out the repairs is wearing sturdy and non-slip shoes

-The person carrying out the repairs has a secure position to stand and hold on while working

-The roof and the climbing equipment used (e.g. ladder) are dry, clean and non-slip

-The roof can withstand the weight of the person carrying out the repairs

Attention! Risk of death or injury due to falling or roof collapse!

-Nobody should be below the antenna inside the caravan/motorhome during dismantling / installation.

Attention! Risk of death or injury due to possible roof collapse and falling parts!

Safety instructions - important notes

Proper installation and safety

Fundamental information

A crucial safety factor is proper performance of installation and electrical connection work, and the specified alignment of the turntable in the direction of travel (park position), see also installation and connection.

Heed as precisely as possible the installation conditions and steps described.

Modifications to the electrical installations in the vehicle should only be carried out by a specialist in vehicle electrics.

Do not make any individual changes to the turntable.

Sealing glue

The turntable is mounted on the roof of the vehicle by glueing and is secured by additional screws.

Note that the setting of the sealing glue depends on the temperature. It reaches its final strength after approximately five days. During installation work, follow the processing and safety instructions listed in the Sikaflex® 291 data sheet.

Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO)

The applicable regulations of the StVZO must be heeded with fixed installation of the turntable on a vehicle which drives on public highways.

In particular, this applies to §§ 19/2; 30 C; 32 (2) and the EC directive 74/483 EEC.

Briefly, they state that an entry in the vehicle documentation is not necessary if the antenna unit is not at a height of more than 2 m when the vehicle is laden and the antenna unit does not protrude outside the outer lateral outline of the vehicle. The maximum permissible height of 4 m (vehicle and antenna unit) may not be exceeded.

There is an increased risk of accidents if the normal vehicle height is increased by an extended antenna. The driver bears sole responsibility for the condition of the superstructure and external fittings!

Cable

Lay all cables such that nobody can tread on them or trip over them. To prevent parasitic induction or interference emissions, when extending the antenna cable use 75 Ω coaxial cable with a screening factor of at least 75 dB.

If you have tied the cables with wire or something similar, disentangle this in order to prevent smouldering!

Safety instructions - important notes

Power supply, fusing

Operate the system from your vehicle‘s battery (12 V) or a suitable mains power pack. This mains power pack must guarantee a stable initial voltage of 12 V, 11 A continuous current and 15 A (300 ms) surge current.

The transient power consumption is up to a maximum of 12 A.

To ensure reliable functioning of the connecting/control unit, the power supply cable must be connected directly to the battery. If the power supply is too low, the UFD 170 /UFD 540 receiver indicates this with the on-screen message “On-board voltage too low” on the television screen.

A 15 A fuse is integrated into the power supply cable.

If the fuse responds, the source of the fault must be eliminated and the defective fuse replaced with a fuse of the same rated value (15 A).

Never remove or bridge the fuse in the cable – cable fire hazard!

The UFD 170 (on the front side) and the HDS 160 (in the connection area on the back side) have a removable 10 A flat fuse.

If the fuse responds, the source of the fault must be eliminated and the defective fuse replaced with a fuse of the same rated value.

Connecting the power supply cable wire marked “Ignition” to the ignition circuit activates the turntable function for automatic lowering of the antenna. This lowering takes place as soon as the vehicle ignition circuit is turned on.

When connecting the control unit to the on-board network, it must be ensured that the “+12V”, “Earth” and “Ignition” wires cannot be broken by switches connected in series, as this can deactivate the automatic lowering function.

The antenna lowers after max. 12 seconds after the switching on of the vehicle ignition circuit (if in stand-by and if the UFD 170 is switched off, otherwise the control unit lowers immediately in operation).

Checks before commencing a journey

Before commencing a journey, the antenna must always be lowered into horizontal position (park position). If the antenna has collided with fixed or moving objects, you must check that is still securely fitted.

As the antenna is subjected to vibration loads during driving, at regular intervals, depending on the frequency of driving, you should check that the system is still securely fitted and tighten any parts that have come loose.

The maximum permissible speed for vehicles with a BAS 60 receiver unit mounted on the roof is 130 km/h.

Lower the antenna if it will not be used for a long period. This makes the securing bolts more difficult to access (protection against theft).

Safety instructions - important notes

Safety precautions during installation

During installation of the turntable, make sure that no persons, in particular children, are in the immediate vicinity of the turntable and that they do cannot touch any moving parts – danger of crushing!

Always unplug the power supply during installation work.

Lowering the antenna while driving

While driving, the antenna must always be lowered to the horizontal position (park position).

To remind yourself of this, please use the stickers in the visual area around your vehicle ignition switch.

Cleaning the antenna

To clean the antenna, use only water and cleansing agents typically used for vehicles.

Do not clean the equipment with steam jet or high-pressure washers.

Do not use any cleansing agents which contain solvents such as acetone, nitro-cellulose combination thinner, naphtha, etc. since this can damage individual components.

Instructions for installation and operation of the HDP 171 with the UFD 170

1.The turntable can only be used in conjunction with a Kathrein UFD 170 Caravan Digital Combi Receiver or a Kathrein UFD 540 Caravan Digital Receiver with HDS 160 control unit.

2.To ensure reliable functioning of the turntable, the power supply cable must be connected directly to the battery. If the power supply is too low, the receiver indicates this with the on-screen message “On-board voltage too low!” or with “HDP overload” on the television screen.

A fuse (15 A) is integrated into the power supply cable.

Safety instructions - important notes

If the fuse responds, the source of the fault must be eliminated. The defective fuse should only ever be replaced with a fuse of the same rated value.

Never remove or bridge the fuse in the cable or in the receiver (UFD 170)! Cable fire hazard!

3.Connecting the power supply cable lead marked “Ignition” activates the turntable function for automatic lowering of the antenna. This lowering takes place as soon as the vehicle ignition circuit is turned on. When connecting the control unit to the on-board network, it must be ensured that the “+12V”, “Earth” and “Ignition” wires cannot be broken by switches connected in series, as this can deactivate the automatic lowering function.

Exceeding the normal vehicle height by not lowering the antenna increases the risk of accidents! The driver is responsible for the condition of the superstructure and external fittings!

4.While downloading software for the UFD 170 satellite combi receiver, the caravan ignition may not under any circumstances be turned on as this can result in impairment, faults or loss of function.

Never turn off the receiver (UFD 170) during the update process, as otherwise you could lose the entire software. You would then need to re-install it at a service centre or using a PC and null modem cable.

5.Note on satellite search: If the vehicle is not on supports during the satellite search process and people are moving around inside it, there is a danger that the oscillations of the vehicle will mean that the satellite cannot be found. It should also be ensured that the vehicle is not oscillating when software download via satellite, as otherwise the download may fail.

6.For installation, the turntable HDP 171 may be used in conjunction with the UFD 170 in manual mode (see “installation and connection”, “installation of the BAS 60 planar antenna” sections).

After installation of the BAS 60 planar antenna, the HDP 171 must be put in the park position with the reset command. The reset command can be accessed via the receiver menu (menu element “HDP antenna set-up”). Only then is the HDP 171 released by the software for automatic searching. This concludes the installation of the HDP 171.

The instructions in the installation and operating manuals for these devices and for the extensions and superstructures must absolutely be heeded!
