HOTBIRD
A TRA
Selecting the antenna location.
Viewed from urope, all TV satellites are located in the south, therefore you must select the installation
location so that the antenna points southwards. The satellite systems with the largest, freely receivable
programme ranges are ASTRA® (19.2° east) and HOTBIRD (13° east). Viewed from Central urope, these
satellite positions are located just a few degrees east of the exact south direction.
When selecting the installation location, you must ensure that the
antenna is not covered by obstacles, such as e.g. bushes, trees,
walls or roof overhangs. Installation beneath the roof is not
possible! The antenna should be installed on a house wall
protected from the wind, if possible.
The necessary wall mounting is available as an accessory and is
not part of this system. If mounting on the roof, the antenna
should be fixed as low as possible on a mast.
The local VD regulations, which prescribe potential and lightning
protection regulations, must be observed.
Alignment with a satellite.
Leave the screws loose on the mast bracket until you have set the final position!
After fixing the antenna at its location, you should have it point southwards with the LNB in front.
The antenna height is set using the scale on the mounting plate.
To set the height, bend the antenna up and down carefully, until
the desired number of degrees is set.
The specified values can naturally only apply for vertically
mounted masts or wall brackets.
When setting the angle, do not pull on the LNB mounting arm
(risk of breaking!).

For precise alignment of the antenna, the complete cabling must now be connected.
The television and the receiver should be located in the immediate vicinity of the antenna.
It is almost impossible to align the reception system by “shouting” e.g. from a distant television. A SAT
finder (art. no. 37351) or the signal strength indicator on a digital receiver is ideal for aligning the antenna.
Leave the equipment disconnected from the mains supply until cabling is complete!
Connect the antenna cable to the LNB. Carefully introduce the copper-coloured internal conductor of the
cable into the LNB socket. Place the thread of the plug directly onto the socket and screw the plug as
tightly as you can by hand. Fix the other end of the cable to the jack on the satellite receiver in the same
way (LNB IN).
With a scart cable, connect the scart socket of the receiver (TV) to the scart socket of your television.
Your cabling now looks like this:
RECEIVER
LNB
AT ANTENNA
Please insert the provided batteries into the remote control.
Now connect your television and the receiver to the mains.
Press the Stand By button on the receiver or on the remote control.
It may be necessary to switch your television into so-called A/V mode. You can do this with the remote
control on your television. The procedure is different for each television unit. The relevant button could be
marked 0,AV or EXT. Please refer to the instructions for your television.

You must now move the preset antenna in millimetre steps, with the screws only hand-tight. Please note
that there must not be any obstacles between antenna and reception direction, and that you must not
stand in front of the antenna area. When you have mounted the antenna precisely southwards, as
described above, and have set a height angle as specified in the table, turn the antenna slowly to the left,
i.e. to the east. (If the antenna is being installed in astern urope, turn it slowly to the west).
When moving the antenna, observe the screen or any signal indications provided (e.g. Sat finder/Digital
receiver). When a signal/TV picture appears, switch between a few programmes on the receiver to
check whether the antenna is aligned to the correct satellite. When the signal quality has reached its
maximum, you should also move the height angle up and down slightly, in the smallest steps, to further
optimise the quality.
If you do not obtain any reaction or only a weak signal level, you should alter the height angle by a few
millimetres up or down and start the satellite search again by swivelling to the side.
When you have optimally set the antenna, tighten the screws on the antenna. Observe the screen at the
same time, as sometimes the antenna is moved slightly during fixing and the signal strength decreases
again.
Fitting an F-plug, if you need to shorten your cable
IMPORTANT: Please proceed with great caution when fitting the F-plug. Failure to comply with the
following instructions could cause malfunctions or destruction of the SAT receiver!! – Please use only
continuous antenna cables.
• Strip the cable for a length of 8 mm as far as the
internal conductor (with a sharp knife).
• Remove the protruding wires of the shielding braid.
• Remove 10mm of the plastic casing until the shielding
braid is bared.
• Make sure that no wires of the shielding braid can
touch the internal conductor.
• Carefully screw the F-plug onto the cable, until the
internal conductor terminates flush with the front edge
of the F-plug. The shielding braid is now connected to
the F-plug.
• Check the F-plug for short circuits. Look into the F-plug
from the front; the internal conductor must be located
on its own in the centre and must not be touched by
any wires of the shielding braid!

Connection to the SAT antenna
The DiS qC technology allows a large number of connection variants e.g.:
• A permanently aligned SAT antenna
• Two permanently aligned SAT antennae or Multifeed antennae with DiS qC 2-way switch (art. no. 3932)
• 4 permanently aligned SAT antennae with a DiS qC 4-way switch (art. no. 3934)
• 2 permanently aligned Multifeed antennae with DiS qC 4-way switch (art. no. 3934)
• A rotating DiS qC 1.2 rotor system, combined with several permanently aligned antennae
TIP: One or more Universal LNBs (reception converters) are required to receive satellite programmes. The
following technical data should be stated on the adhesive label of the LNB: 10.6 GHz (or 10,600 MHz) and
9.75 GHz (or 9,750 MHz) for the so-called oscillator frequencies. No other values or data are relevant, and
the receiver is ready for operation after connection.
Proceed with the utmost caution when preparing the antenna cable! As voltages and switching signals are
transported via the antenna cable, you must make sure that the shielding braid and the aluminium foil
have good contact with the F-plug and that no short-circuit occurs in the inter-
nal conductor of the cable! After screwing on the F-plug, check that the inter-
nal conductor is not being touched by any of the wires of the shielding braid.
A signal strength indicator is provided for aligning the antenna. Slowly swivel
the antenna southwards, observing the signal display on the screen. If you
cannot find a signal, change the inclination of the antenna a little. When
aligning for the first time, it is advisable to directly connect the antenna and
receiver using the shortest possible antenna cable, in order to exclude potential
error sources
For fixed or rotating antenna systems with
1x Universal ingle LNB.
Only one cable will be used between LNB and
receiver. Setting in menu “LNB settings”:
