PART 1 • English 1.0 What is SLIMSAT? SLIMSAT is a Horn Array Type Satellite Antenna with integrated LNB. It can receive signals from major Satellites and would replace a 65 cm 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.
PART 1 • English English Warning!!! Antennas improperly installed to an inadequate structure are very susceptible to wind damage. This Damage can be very serious or even life threatening. The owner and installer assumes full responsibility that the installation is structurally sound to support all loads (weight, wind & ice) and properly sealed against leaks. The manufacturer will not accept liability for any damage caused by a satellite system due to the many unknown variable applications. 3.
PART 1 • English 3.2 Step 2: Installation In order to install your new antenna, you need to find the skew, elevation and azimuth angle by referring to the table in the appendix of this manual. If you can’t find your location, please refer to the information of the place nearest to your location. This manual will show you the installation example for the reception of ASTRA1 satellite in Brest region of France. The angle information for Brest region is Skew: -19.7º El: 30º Az: 149.6º Part Assembly 1.
PART 1 • English English 3. Installation of Fixing Bracket A When installing Fixing Bracket A (B3), please consider the place of installation (clamp type, wall mounting type). Make sure that the direction of the bracket is towards satellite. In order to support the weight of the antenna, nut (N1) should be fixed as tightly as possible. Please purchase the anchor bolt for wall mounting installation separately. Wall Use anchor bold (not included) 4.
PART 1 • English The use of a long or bad quality cable and not isolated jacks can cause a loss of the signal level, it would be preferable to use an RG6 Coaxial cable (HF 17VATC or 19VATC cable), in order to minimise a signal loss. How to prepare the cable? How to connect the cable to the antenna and the set top box? Connector cover One side to Antenna Other side to Receiver F-connector Cable It is important that the coaxial cable does not become damaged or kinked during the installation procedure.
PART 1 • English 4.0 Troubleshooting Check List for Initial Installation 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. sure the Tilt and Elevation pointers are aligned correctly to the scales. Do not use washer or bolt as reference.
PART 1 • English 5.0 Loss of Signal / Rain Fade The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusual heavy rainfall. An optimal alighted 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 soon as possible.
