Kathrein cap910 Satellite TV System User Manual


 
45
This function should be used only by experienced users. Exact knowledge of
the satellite position and your present location are necessary when aligning the
antenna manually to a satellite. Watch out for any obstacles that the antenna
might collide with. The antenna is liable to be damaged by such collisions!
Function not available with the CAP 910 as the GPS data is automatically provided during your journey.
INPUTTING THE CAP GPS POSITION
CAP MENU (TURNTABLE ANTENNA SETTINGS)
TO MOVE THE ANTENNA MANUALLY
The currently displayed position of the CAP is the
“park position”.
You can set the inclination and horizontal
angle of the antenna using the “Elevation”
and “Move to the azimuth (rotate the
antenna)” commands. Check your settings
by referring to the “Signal-Strength” and
“Signal-Quality” bars on the right-hand
side. The higher the bar, the stronger
and better quality the signal received.
Note: To help ensure the required satellite is found quickly, the CAP 910 uses GPS data
recorded during the journey. However, GPS data is only recorded if both the green ignition
lead and the turntable are connected to the 12 V power supply (the receiver can remain
switched off). If this is not possible, we recommend that you connect the turntable and
the ignition signal to the 12 V power supply for approximately 3 minutes before setting
up the system. The current GPS data will be provided during this time. Once the ignition
signal has been removed, the receiver can be switched on. The CAP 910 now searches
for satellites using the exact elevation.
Using the numeric keys and/or the

buttons, input the desired elevation value.
Two seconds after completion of the input or when the
button is pressed, the CAP moves to the
selected position.
