How to Install?
By following the instructions step by step you can proceed easily to install SELFSAT-H21D+ / H30D+ by
yourself or with the help of a professional antenna installer.
Before installing your antenna, you check that SELFSAT-H21D+ / H30D+ box contains all the items
listed above in the ‘Box Content’. In the event of any missing parts, please contact your distributor.
Step 1: Where to Install?
In order to receive a signal from the Satellite, SELFSAT-H21D+ / H30D+ is to be installed in an open
loop space (outside the house or the apartment), in the direction of the satellite towards the equator,
for which, you will need a compass to exactly orient SELFSAT-H21D+ / H30D+ toward the satellite
(Note: please take reference to the table of the Azimuth angles specied in the back pages of this manual)
Note
To ensure an accurate compass reading, stay away from large
metal objects, specically electrical cables and then make
multiple readings
Make sure that there are no obstacles in front of SELFSAT-H21D+ /
H30D+ which can decrease the signal reception quality, such as buildings, or trees (you may keep in
mind that trees will grow and may block the signal).
In order to be able to x and install your antenna easily you might choose an easily accessible place
without any potential danger for installation.
Think about the way you might pass your cable in a discreet way from the SELFSAT-H21D+ / H30D+
to your Set top Box. The antenna should not be too distant from your satellite receiver; a cable longer
than 30 meters can decrease the quality of the signal.

Step 3: Connecting the Antenna and the Set top box
Once you have installed the antenna in an open loop space and mounted the way you want it to be the
next step is to connect it all together.
In order to be able to watch your favorite satellite programs, you need to connect your satellite antenna
to a receiver by a cable.
The cable between the antenna and the Satellite receiver should not exceed 30m as it will decrease the
quality of the signal.
The use of a long or bad quality cable and not isolated jacks can cause a loss of the signal level, it would be
preferable to use an RG6 Coaxial cable (HF 17VATC or 19VATC cable), in order to minimize a signal loss.

Step 4: Antenna Pointing Menu
Once all connected, turn on the TV and the
Satellite receiver.
Select the Antenna Pointing Menu on your set
top box.
This image shows the Signal level and the
screen you will see on your TV.
Do not forget to choose “LNB : ON”
You will need someone to stay in front of the TV
to tell you when the signal is “good” while
you’re outside trying to adjust the antenna the
best way possible.
Antenna Pointing Menu
Satelite : ASTRA 1
Transponder : 23
LNB : ON
Polarisation : Horizontal
Frequency : 12640
Signal: 0
Step 5: Pointing and locating the Signal
The signal level and quality is indicated on the TV screen and will uctuate and change colour according to the adjustment & movement of the antenna while you are pointing & nding (azimuth, elevation
and Skew angle).
The level indicates the power of the signal and the colour is the signal reception quality from the
chosen satellite.
English

Once ne tuning is complete, and the signal is at its peak level with a good quality, you can stop
adjusting the antenna.
(Example of pointing & nding the signal)
In order to watch Canal+ through ASTRA1(19.2 East) from the city ‘Brest’ of France, you will see Skew
angle at -12.7, Elevation angle at 30, and Azimuth angle at 149.6 (in reference to the angle table on the

Troubleshooting Check List for Initial Installation
If the signal is not found, be sure the receiver user manual and the antenna user manual have been
followed closely, check the following:
Make sure all cable connections are correct and each connection is seated/tightened properly
√
Inspect the inside of each cable connector for dirt or possible connector to case/shield short.
√
Verify the Azimuth, Elevation and Tilt angles for your location by ZIP code.
√
Make sure the Tilt and Elevation pointers are aligned correctly to the scales. Do not use washer or
√
bolt as reference.
Make sure the Tilt adjustment is not changed from the recommended setting for the antenna
√
location.
Remove existing TV-specic components, such as TV splitter, etc; reduce the installation to the basic
√
connections called out in this guide. Such components may not work with the satellite signal and
they may be in the wall where you can’t see them. When in doubt. Run RG6 cable directly to your
receiver
Make sure there are no obstructions (trees, buildings, windows, corner or overhang of your roof,
√
your body or hands) – the signal does not pass leaves, branches, glass, etc.
RG 6 cable with solid copper center conductor is highly recommended because it has much lower
√
DC voltage drop compared to RG 6 cable with a copper-coated, steel center conductor.
13
Standard RG 59 cable causes too much DC drop and signal drop; it can not be used to pass the
√
satellite signal. RG 6 coaxial cable must be used.
Some after-market, o-the-shelf add-on components may not be as advertised. They might not
√
work or could cause additional DC drops and signal amplitude attenuation. Remove such components. Go back to the basic connections called out in this manual and re-verify.
Make sure the satellite cable is connected to the “Sat In” jack, not the “Antenna In” jack, The
√
“Antenna In” jack at the back of the receiver is for o-air antenna input or cable TV input.
If all are done correctly but the signal is still not found. Change the Elevation adjustment of the
√
antenna slightly (±2°, then ±4°from the called-for setting) and repeat the procedure.
Make sure the Access Card from your receiver is fully inserted into the Access Card slot and oriented
√
correctly.
Loss of Signal / Rain Fade
●
The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusually heavy rainfall. An optimally aligned
antenna, along with the shortest possible cable run, minimizes the chances of “rain fade.”
●
Make sure the antenna is mounted securely to prevent it from being blown out of alignment in a
heavy wind.
●
Heavy snow accumulation on the antenna may reduce the satellite signal strength, snow should be
swept away as sppn as possible.
●
Tree foliage growth into antenna’s line-of-sight to the satellite may result in gradual loss of picture.
English
Installation Using Long Cable
●
For installations where the RG 6 cable runs from the receuver(s) to the LNB far exceeds 100 feet (150
feet or more), as encountered in a commercial or multi-dwelling building, you need to use an AC
power booster module to bias the LNB.
●
You will also need an additional RF signal amplier to compensate the signal amplitude loss.
Otherwise, your antenna and receiver may not work properly and be subject to frequent outages in
adverse weather. Contact a professional concerning such installations.
