Fine-Tuning the LNBF Setting
•
Rotate the LNBF in a clockwise direction in very small increments. Each time
you move the dish, wait five seconds while your assistant checks the Signal
reading. Determine where the signal begins to weaken and then mark the
location.
•
Rotate the LNBF in a counterclockwise direction in very small increments.
Wait five seconds while your assistant checks the Signal reading. Determine
where the signal begins to weaken and then mark the location.
•
The optimum position is midway between the two points you marked in the
previous steps. This position should provide the strongest Signal reading.
•
Tighten the LNBF clamp screw(s) so that the LNBF is unable to be moved.
Fine-Tuning the Elevation Setting
•
Raise the position of the satellite dish in very small, 1 mm (1
⁄
32") increments.
Each time you move the dish, wait five seconds while your assistant checks the
signal reading on the
Installation Settings
menu. Mark the location where the
signal begins to decrease.
•
Lower the position of the satellite dish in very small, 1 mm (1
⁄
32") increments.
Each time you move the dish, wait five seconds while your assistant checks the
signal reading on the
Installation Settings
menu. Mark the location where the
signal begins to weaken.
•
The optimum elevation position is midway between the two points you marked
in the previous steps. This position should provide the strongest signal reading.
•
Tighten the nut(s) on the mounting bracket so that it cannot be moved up or
down.
Fine-Tuning the Compass Direction Setting
•
First, turn the satellite dish clockwise in very small, 1 mm (1
⁄
32") increments.
Each time you turn the dish, wait while your assistant checks the signal
strength reading on the
Installation Settings
menu. When the receiver
acquires the satellite signal, the signal strength will increase. Continue to move
the satellite dish clockwise, and when the signal strength begins to weaken,
mark the location on the mounting pole.
•
Next, turn the satellite dish counterclockwise in very small, 1 mm (1
⁄
32")
increments. When the signal strength begins to weaken, mark the location on
the mounting pole.
