Keep the signal level display region
at approx 50% by reducing or increasing the
aenuaon.
An increase or decrease in the level can thus
be idened.
If aenuaon is acvated,
“ATT” appears on the display.
The adjustment wheel is very sensive.
In addion, use the “Aenuaon +/-”
buons.
The antenna is opmally aligned
when the signal strength cannot
be increased anymore.
It is oen possible to somewhat increase the
quality by turning the LNB in its retaining
clamp in small increments, known as skew
opmisaon (not necessary for Astra 19.2°).

1.1 Determine the angle for the
satellites
It is necessary to know the approximate
posion on the horizon in order to be able
to quickly align the
antenna on the correct
satellites. For this
purpose, use the easy
online calculator at

satcalc.html
or scan the following QR code.
Or,
You can nd reference values for most
private and public channels as well as Sky
in the table below.
1.2 Roughly align your satellite dish
Now align the antenna in the posion in
the sky where you expect to nd the
satellite.
Azimuth angle: align by compass
(e.g. smartphone compass)
Use the antenna
dial (back part).
3 Adjust the satellite dish more precisely
Antenna roughly aligned as described
3.1 Turn the satellite dish CAREFULLY
observe signal strength bar or buzzer
volume
If the antenna is roughly aligned,
the signal strength bar in the display
goes up.
The aim is to nd the point with the max.
signal level, but not to reach a certain
numerical value (such as 99%).
4.1 Check the picture of a number of channels on your TV (if necessary, start a channel search)
It is most likely that the satellite dish is aligned towards a different satellite, if no programmes or the
wrong programmes are received. Some satellites are in close proximity to each other.
Check the Azimuth angle and adjust again.
4.2 Switch off the receiver/power supply
Firstly, separate the receiver from the mains to avoid short circuiting.
4.3 Fasten the satellite dish crosswise and remove the satellite finder from the signal path.
Finally, connect the supply cable to the LNB - job completed!
Satellite: Astra 1KR/L/M/N (19.2° O)
Use the coaxial cable that was included with
the product – connect the “LNB” connector
to the LNB output.
2.2 Connect the receiver/power supply
Connect the (receiver) supply cable to the
connector that is labelled “Receiver”
2.3 Switch on the receiver/power supply
The receiver now supplies the power
to the satellite nder – the satellite nder
starts.
The satellite nder potenally displays a reading,
oen 99% or 0%
Turn the adjustment wheel.
Depending on the LNB type and background
interference radiaon, the satellite nder may
already display a reading even though a satellite
is not being located.
Before beginning the alignment, you must

To do this, turn the lateral adjustment wheel or
press “Aenuaon” buons (ATT-), unl you

level to approx. 10%.
