• Example for the installation positions for a multi-feed

application with 6° satellite spacing:

Tip:

For multi-feed applications the antenna should be aligned

towards the satellite which is transmitting the weakest

signal level.

• Example for the installation positions for a multi-feed

application with 9° satellite spacing:

Tip:

For multi-feed applications the antenna should be aligned

towards the satellite which is transmitting the weakest

signal level.

Aligning the antenna

The antenna must be exactly aligned towards the satellite in

respect of both the direction (azimuth) and also the inclination

(elevation). For multi-feed applications the antenna should be

aligned towards the satellite which is transmitting the weakest

signal.

a) Adjusting the inclination (elevation)

• Use the hexagon key supplied with the parabolic antenna ()

to slacken the two screws on each side of the inclination scale

(elevation) on the left and right of the clamp.

• Then adjust the inclination (elevation) – the exact elevation

angle for your location can be found in the manual for the feed

system (LNB).

• When doing this, retighten ﬁ rst just one of the bolts on the

inclination scale ﬁ nger-tight.
