First-time installation
Motor antenna configuration
If you have an antenna motor to control your satellite antenna you
must configure the following settings.
• From the “Antenna/Satellite selection” menu select option 3
“Motor Antenna Configuration” and press select.
Type of motor
• Select SATSCAN (ASTRA) if you have a Nokia SatScan motor.
• Select DiSEqC (Hotbird) if the motor that you have is control-
led by DiSEqC commands.
LNB type
• Select the correct LNB type for your configuration, e.g. “Uni-
versal”.
LNB offset voltage
If the cable from the antenna is very long, the voltage to the LNB
could be too low to change the polarisation. You can increase the
voltage to the LNB by 0.5 V.
Predefined ASTRA-/HOTBIRD-channel
• Select one of the predefined channels and adjust the antenna
until a TV picture from the predefined channel is visible on the
screen.
Adjusting the motor for ASTRA/HOTBIRD
To continue the installation you must now determine the
angle to ASTRA 1 or HOTBIRD. The motor and the an-
tenna must be adjusted towards the ASTRA 1 satellites
at 19.2° East or HOTBIRD satellites at 13° East as this is
the reference setting. All other preprogrammed satellite
positions are oriented relative to ASTRA 1 or Hotbird.
You must also mount the antenna in a suitable location
outdoors.
For more information, please read the separate installa-
tion instructions for the SatScan or DiSEqC positioner.
East and West limit setup
Note! You only have to set one or both of these limits if the an-
tenna is prevented from reaching its East/West limit positions.
This could be the case, for example, if the antenna is mounted
too close to a wall or in any similar situation.
To set these limits, adjust the antenna using the cursor left/cur-
sor right button.
• Firstly, move the antenna to the east limit.
• Then move the antenna to the west limit.
• Press select to confirm all settings and carry out the channel
search procedure.
