…and then drill the outside wall.
Set the drilling jig in place. Drill in the
middle of the jig (page 22)
Using a dia. 42 cutter, drill the inside
wall first…
Caution:
Mount the antenna away from the vehicle
roof edge to avoid overhanding the roof
line when travelling.
The Motosat antenna must be installed
near a vertical wall where the wall outlet
can be fitted
Installation instructions

Insert the mast roof mounting bracket in
the dia. 42 hole bored in the roof, making
sure you apply a layer of silicone under
the ring nut.
Fasten the ring nut using self-tapping
screws. Place the rubber gasket over the
ring nut. ( Screws not supplied )
Secure the pipe lead to the roof using
the ring nut and its wedge-shaped spacer.
Caution: the antenna must be in
horizontal position. The wedge-shaped
spacer is used to set the antenna in the
horizontal position even if the roof is
inclined.
Lock the collar on the wedge spacer
by applying the 2 screws (not supplied).

Introduce the
nut in its seat
on the back of
the wall outlet
Tight the locking ring nut
This mast locking device must be
screwed tight every time you wish to
secure the antenna in the desired position.
To turn or lift the mast, loosen this ring
nut.
Spread a thin film of Vaseline inside the
seal and introduce the mast
Fit the upper part of the wall outlet without
tightening all the way
Fix the outlet unit to the wall

Cut the antenna cable to the proper length and
apply the connector as shown on Figure. Make
sure no wire of the braiding touches the core of
the cable
Introduce the coaxial cable in the special
slot (A) and lead it out of rear bottom side
of Motosat (B)
Engage Motosat in the antenna support
tube until the tube holes are aligned with
the Motosat holes.
Fix Motosat to the antenna support tube
with the special screws.
Connect the cables as
shown in figure
Verify that the
coaxial cable
does not
obstruct the
screw hole.

Press the UP button until a sequence of
beep sounds is obtained.
The antenna becomes automatically
positioned to facilitate installation (the
display reading is 37°).
Press the DOWN button until the
display reads OF.
Press the
DOWN button
until the display
reads OF.
Fasten the
antenna to the
arm as shown
in the figure.

Make sure that
the antenna is
exactly in its
stowed
position. Place
the sticker on
the mast in
such a way
that you can
quickly lock the
antenna in the
right position
before every
start.
The antenna must be absolutely installed according to fig. 24, i.e.,
the disc must be bent to the rear of the vehicle.
Check that the antenna has been
lowered to the required travelling
position (fig.24) and glue the steel
plate below the LNB shim to the
roof with jointing compound or
double-sided adhesive tape.

Important information for proper antenna tracking
Before performing antenna tracking operation, make sure you have positioned your vehicle
so that the view towards the South (where Satellite signals come from) is free from any nearby
obstacle (trees, houses, etc.). This way, the antenna will be free to receive signals coming
from the satellite.

1) It is also important to know that satellites do not transmit with the same intensity throughout
Europe, so if you are outside the reception area, your Motosat search might be unsuccessful.
2) The reception areas for each Satellite can be found on the main magazines dealing in this
line of business. Also remember that the larger the dish, the more reception area is
available
3) Make sure that the vehicle battery is sufficiently charged, if the voltage drops below
11.5 volts the electronic circuit protection prevents MotoSat antenna to move.

1) Turn on the SAT receiver and TV set following the instructions provided by their
respective manufacturers.
2) Hold down the “UP” button until 3 beep sounds are emitted by MotoSat. The
antenna will go up to the latest stored position setting
MotoSat will automatically store the latest antenna elevation value to facilitate
pointing operations.
3) Slowly turn the mast to the south until TV signals are displayed on the screen.
4) If you haven’t been able to find a TV signal, check the elevation reached on the
display and compare it with the value shown in table 17. If necessary, use the “UP”
and “DOWN” buttons to correct elevation.
NOTE: the elevation reading on the display may be not accurate because of poor
levelling of the parked vehicle.
5) Slowly turn the mast to the right/left until TV signals are displayed on the screen.
6) To optimise reception, fine-tune both the elevation (with the “UP” and “DOWN”
buttons) and azimuth (mast).
