Important notice

TeleSat S is packaged in two separate cartons for transport reasons:

a) the first package contains the driving unit with all the cables, and the Control unit.
b) the second package only contains the dish.

• It is important to check that the dish has not been damaged during transport when the
package is opened. In particular, check the following well:

• By resting the dish edge against a flat surface (e.g. the floor or a wall) check that it makes
contact to the surface all around. If it is not so, try and make the edge level, without denting
the dish, or call our After-Sales Service.

• After checking that everything is in order, install the dish on the driving unit as follows:

1) Temporarily connect the Control unit to the driving unit through the grey motor cable.

2) Connect the Control panel to the Control unit through the RJ45 cable.

3) Power the Control unit using a battery.

Warning: For correct connection of the wiring and to prevent damage to the

equipment please consult page 9 “Connections”.

4) Press the switch-on button on the control panel and wait
for the dish support mast to rise.

5) Once the desired position has been reached, turn off the
TeleSat S via the same button.

6) Secure the dish to the mast and screw
down the four supplied screws.

7) Turn the unit on again and wait for
the antenna to close.

8) Disconnect the the Control unit,
the battery and install the driving
unit on the vehicle

YES NO

Warning:

NEVER loosen the two dish arm lock
screws (A) to attach the dish as this
will result in loss of alignment with
the antenna.

2) Clean carefully the lower part of
the two base plates and apply a
layer of binder on the whole
surface. (e.g SIKAFLEX)

3) Position the two cables coming
out from the centre towards either
the front or the back of the antenna.

Assembly instructions

1) On the roof of the vehicle, choose a free area large enough to allow the antenna to
revolve (Fig. 2).

2) Accomodate the cables into a protection raceway up to the point where the cables go
into the vehicle, using the suitable supplied fairlead.

Seal the fairlead carefully so as to prevent any infiltration by water

Connection with extension

WARNING The Grey and Black cables coming out of the Outside Unit are generally long

enough to allow for connection to the Control unit. If it is not so, use the extension cables
and perform the following operations:

1) Connect the two cables coming from the centre of the OUTSIDE UNIT to the two supplied
extensions, waterproofing the connectors using the two pieces of heat-shrinking tube.

7

Control Unit Installation

1) Position the Control unit in an easy accessible, ventilated compartment.

WARNING:

Do not install the Control unit in areas where liquids can be spilled, since this could
cause irreparable damage.

Do not install the Control unit in very small, unventilated compartment s, since overheating
could compromise its functionality and render the warranty null and void.

2) Place the Control panel comando in an easily accessible, visible position.

3) Install the connection cables (Grey and Black) until you reach the

OUTSIDE UNIT installation area.

Note: Install the wall-mounted control unit with the (Grey and Black) connection cables
bent as shown in the picture. This installation tip will prevent any condensation water from
flowing down the cables into your control unit electronics - damaging it beyond repair and
voiding your warranty.

WARNING:

The 3-way power connector (P)
must only be inserted in the
12 Vdc POWER socket.

Inserting this connector in any
other socket will cause
irreparable damage to the board
and render the warranty null

and void.

4) The GREEN safety cable of the Control Unit must be

connected to the consensus of the vehicle startup console (in
many cases such consensus is located on Pin 15 in the main
terminal board). In this way, whenever the motor is started,
this cable receives a positive + 12 Vdc voltage, which will
automatically lower the antenna and lock all functions of the
Control Unit simultaneously.

1) Connect the grey cable (motors) to the MOTOR
UNIT connector and the Black coaxial cable
(antenna) to the LNB connector of the Control unit.

2) Connect the Receiver or the TV with Receiver
to the SA T RECEIVER connector. You can connect
any satellite receiver.

3) Connect directly the BLACK cable of the Control unit to the NEGA TIVE
POLE of the vehicle 12 Volt Battery, and the RED cable to the POSITIVE
POLE + (remember not to mix the + and - poles up), using 2 cables of
a cross section of 2.5 mm².

WARNING

This technical note is to call the attention of the installation personnel to certain det ails
of TeleSat S installation. During installation, you must take the following precautions:

The power supply cable must directly come from the battery and must have no junctions.
Minimum cross section of the cable is 2,5 mm2. For cable lengths equal to or above 6 metres,
the minimum cross-section is 4 mm2. Only the TeleSat S must be connected to this cable;
all the other devices must be connected to another power supply cable.
The cable connecting the driving unit to the TeleSat S Control unit must NEVER be cut for
any reason whatsoever: should the cable turn out to be too long, wind the extra part into a
coil in a free area of the vehicle. Leave a little cable in the driving unit area; should any
technical operation be required, it will make it easier to remove the driving unit.

Failure to observe these instructions shall render the Warranty null and void.

LNB rotation for ideal signal reception in extreme

(South-western or South-eastern) areas in Europe

Please be reminded that your outside low-noise block converter (LNB) has its own special
mounting position that must be maintained, otherwise you will be unable to receive any
signals. The LNB pre-defined installation position is along the dish centre line (Fig. A): in this
configuration, the TeleSat S System will operate correctly in most European countries. If,
however, you happen to find yourselves very far from the orbital position of your required
satellite, you may want to adjust your low-noise block converter angle. This is especially true
if you wish to receive satellite signals from Astra 19E, Astra 28E or HotBird 13E and you are
in Portugal or Morocco: you will then have to adjust the LNB angle as shown in fig. B, while
if you happen to be in Turkey, to receive signals from the same satellites you will have to
adjust your LNB to the position shown in fig. C.

Important information for proper
antenna tracking

1) Before performing antenna tracking
operation, make sure you have positioned
your vehicle so that the view towards the
South (where Satellite signals come from)
is free from any nearby obstacle (trees,
houses, etc.). This way, the antenna will
be free to receive signals coming from
the satellite.

2) It is also important to know that satellites do not transmit with the same intensity throughout

Europe, so if you are outside the reception area, your TeleSat S search might be unsuccessful.
The reception areas for each Satellite can be found on the main magazines dealing in this
line of business. Also remember that the larger the dish, the more reception area is available.

WRONG POSITION RIGHT POSITION

1) Loosen the LNB U-bolt locking screws

2) Turn in either the Clockwise (West)

or the Anti-clockwise (South-East)
direction

3) Lock the LNB again with the special

screws

Tips on the best use of TeleSat S

When you park your vehicle, make sure that:

1) No obstacle (for example trees) is too near your antenna, preventing it from moving
freely. No metal or glass wall is very near (about 5 m) the antenna, since this would
act as a mirror for satellite signals and could induce the antenna to stop towards it.

2) Remove any snow or ice from the TeleSat S before actuating it in order to avoid
wasting battery power trying to lift it.

3) If you decide to turn the engine of your vehicle on in order to re-charge its batteries,
with the safety cable connected to the ignition key, the antenna, if lifted, will come
down automatically and it will not be possible to lift it again as long as the engine is
running.

4) Make sure that your batteries are always sufficiently charged, since, if the voltage
falls below 10 Volts, the TeleSat S electronic safety circuit will prevent the
antenna from rising.

5) Should you use 12 V olt power supply instead of batteries, be careful to use st abilized
power supply being able to provide 5 A continuously and at least 10 A for short periods.
At all costs, avoid using low quality, non stabilized battery chargers.

6) It is recommended not to use the antenna under strong wind conditions

(80 km/h). Failure to comply with this condition may result in product degradation
which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for.

7) Antenna closing operations, whether by user's control or automatically for

vehicle start-up, require variable time.
Before starting the vehicle, always make sure that the antenna is fully closed.

* The manufacturer declines any liability for all degradations suffered by the

product owing to misuse.

Operation of TeleSat S

TeleSat S is a fully automatic satellite tracking system and can track satellites that emit both
DVB-S and DVB-S2 signals.

All the operations of the TeleSat S System are carried out via the Control panel.

Turning on the TeleSat S

To turn on the TeleSat S System, press the ON/OFF button (3). Upon pressing the button,
all signal lights will go on to allow you to check the proper operation of the board. After this
step, the message ON will appear on the display (4), the red power supply indicator (6) will
go on and one of the LEDs (5) will start flashing to indicate the selected satellite,

Selecting the satellite

If the flashing LED already corresponds to the desired satellite just wait a few seconds and
the antenna will begin its search. Should, instead, the user wish to track a different satellite,
he/she must press the SAT key (1) repeatedly until the LED that is on (5) corresponds to the
chosen satellite. A few seconds later the antenna will begin the new search.

13

Searching the satellite

During the seeking stage, the green LED by the name of the satellite blinks fast, while the
message ON appears on the display (4) followed by an animated bar which indicates the
rotation of the antenna. The antenna will stop moving as soon as it finds the satellite; in this
case the message SAT will be brought to the display and the green signal light will remain
always on. At this point the satellite receiver and the desired TV program can be turned on.

The position of the antenna will automatically be saved after first satellite tracking
operation: this speeds up tracking when the system is switched back on after parking
the antenna.

Automatic Parking of antenna via the Control Panel (OFF indicator off)

Should you decide to park (stow) the antenna by pressing key (2), the antenna starts to be
lowered and the word OFF appears on the Display. Once the antenna has been completely
closed the word OFF disappears and only the Power LED remains on.

Turning off the TeleSat S

If you wish to turn off the TeleSat S, press the ON/OFF button (3) and make sure that all
signal lights are off. In this case the antenna remains in the position it was before turning off.
Proper connection of the green safety cable ensures that the antenna is closed as long as
the vehicle moves.

Error code display

In the event of faults or malfunctions, the Control Panel shows the corresponding Error Code
on the display:

ER1 No satellite found. It is necessary to check that the TeleSat S system is not

obstructed SOUTH of the satellite.

ER2 The elevation motor is locked. Make sure that no foreign matters hinder regular

movement

ER3 The rotation motor is locked. Make sure that no foreign matters hinder regular movement
ER9 During the switch-on stage a fault occurred in the driving motor. Make sure that no

foreign matters hinder regular movement.

Troubleshooting

• If the TeleSat S has not found the satellite after a complete search, check the following:
a) Is the view towards the South free from any obstacle?

b) Is the place you are at within the reception area of the satellite you have chosen?
c) Is the cable connecting the LNB to the antenna firmly fastened?

It could have been ripped off or come loose because of contact with an unexpected
obstacle.

d) Are all the connections on the Control unit properly set up?

• If the antenna has stopped after performing tracking, but neither messages nor images
appear on the screen:

a) Have you switched your receiver on ?
b) Have you switched your TV set on ?
c) Have you selected the right satellite ? Make sure that the services you wish to receive

are really available on the required satellite.

• If the Control panel does not turn on when you press the ON/OFF button, check the
following:

a) Is the engine of your vehicle running? Turn it off, since this means the safety system

which keeps the antenna down is operating.
b) Is the battery charged?
c) Is the fuse on the power lead intact? Replace it with a 5A one of the same type.
