Product introduction What is SELFSAT-H10D/H21D? SELFSAT-H10D/H21D is a Horn Array Type Satellite Antenna with Dual Linear Polarization, it can receive signal from major Satellites and would replace a normal former Parabolic Dish. Small, discreet and easy to use, it can be installed in a few minutes and used as a portable antenna for all satellite receptions.
English Safety Instructions • Before using this product please read this manual carefully and follow exactly all installation, mounting & orientation instructions. • All the instructions should be followed in order to avoid any technical problems. • Any electric or magnetic field close to the SELFSAT-H10D/H21D may cause a bad reception or even cut off the signal completely. • Do not drill the plastic cover of the antenna, which seals the antenna from moisture.

In order to be able to watch your favorite satellite programs, you need to connect your satellite antenna to a receiver by a cable.
A) How to prepare the cable? CONNECTOR COVER 15mm 8mm F CONNECTOR 3mm B) How to connect the cable to the antenna and the set top box? One side To Antenna Other side To receiver Cable It is important that the coaxial cable does not become damaged or Kinked during the installation procedure. Step 4: Antenna Pointing Menu Once all connected, turn on the TV and the Satellite receiver. Select the Antenna Pointing Menu on your set top box.
English Step 5: Pointing and locating the Signal (first without Attenuation Thin Pad) Once all installed and connected, you may take off the Attenuation Thin Pad from the antenna (and keep to one side for step 6) and then start adjusting your antenna in order to receive a signal. For that, you will need to move your antenna in three different ways in order to receive the maximum signal level & best reception quality.
B) Elevation Angle : Then obtain the Elevation angle according to the area location of the chosen satellite on the lists in this manual. Then move your antenna up or down according to the angle, (you may use the graduated surface of the bracket in order to make sure that you are on the right position. Once achieved, tighten your elevation nuts on the Angle Bracket (B1), this is a preliminary adjustment which you may have to fine tune later by using the pointing menu on the TV.
English ASTRA 1 19,2 o HOTBIRD ASTRA 2 28,2 o 13 o The signal level and quality is indicated on the TV screen and will fluctuate and change colour according to the adjustment & movement of the antenna while you are pointing & finding (azimuth, elevation and Skew angle). The level indicates the power of the signal and the colour is the signal reception quality from the chosen satellite.
Step 6: Optimum Pointing & Finding the Signal (with Attenuation Thin Pad) Use of Attenuation Thin Pad simulates bad weather conditions causing a signal loss and aids antenna positioning to receive an optimum signal in all weather conditions. Optimum pointing and finding to gain the best signal is only possible after passing through step 5.
English Troubleshooting Check List for Initial Installation If the signal is not found, be sure the receiver user manual and the antenna user manual have been followed closely, check the following: √ Make sure all cable connections are correct and each connection is seated/tightened properly √ Inspect the inside of each cable connector for dirt or possible connector to case/shield short. √ Verify the Azimuth, Elevation and Tilt angles for your location by ZIP code.
Loss of Signal / Rain Fade ● The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusually heavy rainfall. An optimally aligned antenna, along with the shortest possible cable run, minimizes the chances of “rain fade.” ● Make sure the antenna is mounted securely to prevent it from being blown out of alignment in a heavy wind. ● Heavy snow accumulation on the antenna may reduce the satellite signal strength, snow should be swept away as sppn as possible.
