Inserting the batteries in the battery compartment
Check that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries.
Remove the batteries when the device is not in use for long periods of time.
L eaking or damaged batteries might cause severe burns if they come into
contact with the skin. Therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
T he batteries must not be short-circuited or thrown into a fire. Do not at-
tempt to recharge the batteries. There is a risk of explosion.
D o not use batteries with a different levels of charge, or from different
manufacturers, at the same time.
It is only necessary to use the battery compartment when there is no satel-
lite receiver connected to the LNB yet.
• Insert ten 1.5 V Mignon batteries (AA) in the battery compartment, paying attention
to the polarity. The correct polarity is shown on the bottom of the battery compart-
ment.
• If the SAT finder no longer works or if the scale illumination gets darker, the batteries
are spent and have to be replaced.
Connection and operation
T o prevent short circuits, separate any multi-switches and the satellite re-
ceiver from their power supply before connecting (pull the power plug).
Avoid short-circuiting or overloading the connected F connection cable or
the SAT Finder input "LNB", otherwise the SAT Finder or the connected
receiver may be damaged.
Do not position the SAT Finder directly in front of the satellite antenna, other-
wise the level display (4) will show full power at all times.
A jump of the level display (4) to the highest value of the display scale means
that the receiver signal is too high for the SAT Finder. In this case, reduce the
sensitivity of the SAT Finder by turning the level knob (5) counter-clockwise.
If this is not enough to receive a medium display range, e.g., when using a
high-capacity LNB with high amplification (> 60 dB) or a satellite antenna
that is larger than 1 m, you should insert an additional level controller bet-
ween the LNB and the SAT Finder (attenuation controller 0 - 20 dB).
• Connect the outlet of the LNB with the connector TO-LNB (1) of the SAT Finder. Use
the enclosed F connection cable for this purpose.
• Connect the connector TO-REC (6) with the antenna input of the satellite receiver
(often labelled with "IF INPUT"). If no SAT receiver is available, please use the bat-
tery compartment. Plug the clip of the connection cable to the battery compartment
and connect the other end of the cable with the connector TO-REC (6) on the SAT
Finder.
• Check the correct connector, plug the mains plug of the SAT receiver into a power
socket and turn it on. When using the battery compartment, insert the batteries as
described above.
• Now the satellite finder is supplied with power. Now the level display (4) of the SAT
finder should light up.
• For the time being, roughly orient the SAT antenna towards the desired satellite with
the compass. Inform yourself about the correct value for adjusting the height and
side angle in the instruction manual of the satellite antenna, the Internet or special-
ist literature.
• Turn the level regulator (5) of the SAT Finder, until the pointer of the level display (4)
is approximately in the middle position. The display is supported with an acoustic
signal. The higher the signal, the better the antenna is aligned towards the satellite.
• Change the direction (height and side angle) of the satellite antenna until the level
display (4) shows a maximum.
• When the level display (4) is at full scale, turn the level regulator (5) counter-clock-
wise back until the pointer is approximately in the middle. It may be necessary to
repeat this process several times while adjusting the satellite antenna.
• Now align the SAT antenna precisely so that the level display (4) shows a highest
possible pointer deflection. The higher the pointer deflection, the higher the signal
sound of the acoustic level display.
• Once the satellite antenna is optimally set, fix it in place (observe the manufacturer's
instructions).
• Pull the mains plug of the satellite receiver or remove the battery compartment
again and remove the SAT finder from the antenna cable.
• Connect the LNB directly to the satellite receiver or restore the original cabling.
• Check the picture quality on the TV and whether the right satellite is accessed. If
the wrong satellite is accessed, the setting procedure has to be started from the
beginning.
Checking the polarisation level
• The H/V display (3) indicates the polarisation level selected by the SAT receiver.
• With a vertical polarisation level, the LED does not light up, with a horizontal polari-
sation level it lights up.
• To be able to align the satellite antenna optimally on both polarisation levels, you
should switch the polarisation level when adjusting the satellite antenna (only pos-
sible with connected SAT receiver).
Checking the 22 kHz conversion signal
• The 22 kHz display (2) lights up as soon as the antenna cable has a 22 kHz signal.
• The 22kHz signal is as a rule used to switch an LNB from the bottom (analogue)
frequency band to the top (digital) frequency band.
• This check is also only possible with a connected SAT receiver.
Maintenance and care
This device is maintenance-free.
Clean the exterior of the device only with a soft, dry cloth or with ae.g.,brush. Do not
use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions; this may damage the surface
of the case.
Disposal
a) Product
Electronic devices are recyclable waste materials and must not be disposed
of in the household waste!
Please dispose of the product, when it is no longer of use, according to the
current statutory requirements.
Remove any inserted batteries from the battery compartment and dispose of
them separately from the product.
b) Batteries and rechargeable batteries
As the end user, you are required by law (Battery Regulation) to return used batteries.
Do not dispose of used batteries in the household waste!
Batteries/rechargeable batteries containing hazardous substances are la-
belled with the symbol shown to indicate that disposal in household waste
is forbidden. The symbols of the critical heavy metals are: Cd=cadmium,
Hg=mercury, Pb=lead (marking can be seen on the battery / rechargeable
battery, e.g., underneath the refuse bin symbol shown on the left).
You can return your used batteries/rechargeable batteries free of charge at the official
collection points of your community, in our stores, or at places where batteries or
rechargeable batteries are sold!
You thereby fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the
environment.
