Connect the optional
battery pack
Connect the DIGISAT 2 to the LNBF on the dish with a short
coax jumper wire. This short jumper - (provided with the
DIGISAT 2 Plus and with the optional kit shown above) -
should be connected to the top of the DIGISAT.
The DIGISAT can be powered by your satellite receiver or by
connecting it to an optional battery. The battery can
remain plugged into the DIGISAT 2 (a new feature) while
powering from a satellite receiver. To utilize the battery
power when the satellite receiver is NOT connected,
simply push the “POWER” button. (See the back of this
sheet for all the button functions).
We offer an optional battery pack kit (above) or you can use
a 12 to 18 vDC battery pack like a cell phone uses as long
as the center pin of the input jack is positive (+).
Functions and meter
indications are discussed on
the back of this sheet.

Powering The DIGISAT 2
Speaker Function “DISH Network” Multi-Dish Digital Switches
Checking Volts & mA
Signal Meter Maxed
If the "Signal Meter" has maxed out, as
illustrated at left, it will be necessary
to reduce the sensitivity of the
DIGISAT. Press the “Power” button
once. This will desensitize the meter
and reduce the number of lit LED's.
Now you can continue aligning the
dish by peaking the signal out with this
attenuated or reduced signal level.
NOTE: The 22KHz light is used to verify polarity change signal in foreign satellite receivers and has no application.
1) Connect the DIGISAT according to the instructions on page 1.
2) Press and hold the left yellow button, sequentially press the right button. You will hear a tone. ( see "Volume Control" below)
3) Loosen the bolts on the antenna mount so the dish can be moved up and down as well as left and right.
4) Move the dish up & down, left & right until the tone you hear is at its highest pitch.
5) When the tone is at its highest pitch, tighten the bolts on the mount.
6) The LED's can also be used to peak the signal. Adjust the dish for the highest LED signal and tighten the bolts on the mount.

Power Mode
Signal Meter Function It is not necessary to push any of the
buttons to activate this function. The
DIGISAT defaults to "Signal Meter"
function on startup.
The higher the LED value, the better the
signal you are receiving. The upper row
of LED's indicate incoming signal in
single digits - count the number of lit LED
bars (one, two, five etc.). The lower row
of LED's indicate signal in tens (ten,
twenty, fifty etc.). In this example the
meter is indicating a signal strength of
fifty six (56).
Note: Your satellite receiver signal strength meter will
NOT indicate the same signal strength of “56”. The DIGISAT and your receiver use different
methods of determining signal strength and will seldom indicate the same number.
If you connect a satellite receiver to the
DIGISAT, the LED bars will light
immediately. The DIGISAT is ready to
use.
If you are powering the DIGISAT with an
optional battery pack, the unit will not
respond until you press the “POWER”
button. The DIGISAT will then power up
in the signal strength mode (at
maximum sensitivity).
To Turn the unit OFF, just press AND
HOLD the “Power” button till the LEDs
go out. (Battery connection only)
Press the “MODE” button once to switch
the DIGISAT to a volt meter. The “Mode
Light” will come on and remain steady.
The upper row of LED's indicate the
voltage being supplied by the receiver or
battery pack. The first LED bar indicates 11
volts. For example in this illustration four
(4) bars are lit which indicates fourteen
(14) volts being provided by the receiver.
The bottom LED's indicate the milliamp
draw of the LNBF. Each bar is 50 mA. One
hundred and fifty (150) mA draw is
illustrated.
The DIGISAT 2 will detect the digital
message sent from the “DISH Network”
receiver to the Multi-Dish switches. This
function is only for DISH receivers.
Indications you receive while in this Mode
do NOT apply to any other satellite
equipment.
To set the DIGSAT for this function press
the “Mode” switch until the Mode Light
begins to flash. At that time the upper LEDs
will light and indicate the digital
information being sent to the Multi-Dish
switch. Look at the back of the DIGISAT for
the interpretation of the upper LED bars.
By pressing the function buttons in a
sequence, the audible signal will be
activated. Note that the DIGISAT must
be in the Signal Meter mode for this
feature to work.
Press the “Power” button and the
“Mode” button in sequence. It does
not matter which one you push first,
just push both buttons.
To cancel the audio function, press
BOTH buttons at the same time. The
DIGISAT will stay in the default "Signal
Meter" mode.
