Satellite Transmission; Startup And Operation - Megasat Caravanman Kompakt Bedienungsanleitung

4. Satellite transmission

Direct Broadcast Service (DBS) satellites broadcast audio, video and data information
from satellites located 38.000 km in space. A receiving station, such as the antenna,
should include a dish and satellite receiver to receive the signals and process them for
use by the consumer audio and video equipment. The system requires a clear view of
the satellite to maximize the signal reception.
good reception signal
Objects such as large houses, bridges and trees that block this view will cause a loss of
signal. The signal will be quickly restored once the antenna has a clear line of sight again.
Heavy rain, clouds, snow or ice may also interfere with the signal reception quality. If the
satellite signal is lost due to blockage or severe weather condition, services from the
receiver will be lost (picture will freeze frame and may disappear). When the satellite
signal strength is again high enough, then the receiver will resume providing desired
programming services.

5. Startup and Operation

1. Turn on the TV and the set-top box. The green LNB LED on the display of the control
box lights up when the satellite receiver is turned on and a supply voltage for the LNB
is available.
2. Turn on the control unit. Then, the indicator of the preset satellites lights red. Shortly
thereafter, the LED starts to flash for about 5 seconds. Only in this time you can select
another satellite by press the white key. With each press of the button, the display will
continue to a satellite position. Press it as long until the desired satellite is flashing.
Now the search will start.
3. When a satellite is found, the antenna stop and perform a fine-tuning. Then lights the
lock indicator, the red power LED turns off. This confirms that the desired satellite is
found. If at first not the right (default) satellite has been found, after a moment the lock
indicators turns off, the display of the found satellites lights up briefly and the antenna
examined the selected satellite again.
4. If the antenna should not be possible to find the desired satellite, the search is stopped
and the LEDs light up one after the individual satellites, alternately from the right to left.
Automatically retract of the antenna:
If the antenna should automatically retract when you turn on the ignition of their vehicle,
the control unit must not be switched off. Once the antenna is fully retracted, the LEDs of
the individual satellites are lit alternately from right to left.
Manual retract of the antenna:
If the antenna may want to close manually, press and hold the „Satellite selection" button
for 10 seconds. Once the antenna is fully retracted, the LEDs of the individual satellites
are lit alternately from right to left.
Note: Changing the satellite is only possible shortly after switching on the
power (as described in point 2) or after successful satellite search.
Note: Hispasat and Turksat are programmed on the same selection
position. When you switch to this position, it chose as the first Hispasat and when
pressed again Turksat.
