2.4 Startup and operation

1. Turn on the control unit at the main switch. The green LED (PWR) on the control unit
lights up - the boot process starts.
2. After booting the pre-installed satellites are displayed. Choose within 2 seconds the
desired satellite with the satellite selection buttons (up / down).
3. The control unit checks whether all components
are connected and the system is ready for opera-
tion. If the control unit found an error, the display
shows „FAIL" behind the respective point and the
red LED (ERR) is lit continuously. If everything is
confirmed with OK now starts the search process.
During the search operation, the yellow LED indi-
cator (SEARCH) flashes.
4. After a successful search, the control unit displays the satellite ID and the yellow LED
(LOCK) lights up permanently.
Note:
To change the satellite, you can use the satellite selection buttons (up / down). The
control unit starts searching again.

2.5 Skew setting values for European capitals

The following settings are only for the Seaman 37
(without AutoSkew).
Signals in the vertical (red) and horizontal (blue) line
have an offset of exactly 90° to each other. Due to the
different position of the satellites, depending on your
location, it is possible that the signals do not meet
exactly vertically and horizontally on the LNB. To ad-
just this, turn the LNB into the correct position to the
transmitted signal. This adjustment to the LNB is called
„skew adjustment". The following figure shows the op-
timal setting of the LNB. More accurate the match, the
better of reception.
