7. Connecting the satellite antenna
In order to check the correctness of connection of external equipment, for example a satellite
antenna or converter, read the installation manual or hire a professional technician!
Good reception is conditional on the precise placement of the
antenna. Even the best antenna will cause reception problems if it
is incorrectly adjusted. Even slight placement errors may render
reception impossible or considerably impair image/sound quality.
Before installation make sure that the location is suitable. The
proper direction may be initially determined by making a
comparison with other antennas. There should be no objects
directly in front of the antenna, for these may block the signal from
reaching the bowl! Once you select an optimal location for the
antenna, fix and adjust it initially, and then proceed to a precise
adjustment. Each antenna is fitted with regulating screws that
make it possible to correct its vertical and horizontal placement.
Adjusting is somewhat more difficult in the case of digital tuners. You cannot perform
adjustments on the basis of the image, because this appears with a certain delay. What is more,
the indicators available in the settings menu also act with a delay, and therefore adjustment
may take considerable time and be very imprecise. An antenna signal meter will be
indispensable for setting up the antenna. The meter must be connected to the antenna cable
between the converter and the receiver. This will confirm the presence of a voltage that
switches the converter from the tuner and show the signal strength for individual satellites. We
strongly recommend hiring a professional technician!
