Installation Instructions

3. Consult an AZ/EL table to determine the elevation angle for your location. For

Example, the angle fort he ASTRA 19,2° East satellite in the German town of Daun is

31,29°.

As your external unit incorporates an offset dish, the angle of elevation to be set is not

the angle in the table, but an adjusted angle which is calculated for the specific dish

used.

This is calculated as follows:

Angle of Elevation – Offset angle = Angle to be set

The offset angle of the DigiDish 33 resp. the DigiDish 45 is 30°.

Therefore, if you are in Daun and using a DigiDish 33 resp. 45, this results in an angle

of:

31,29° - 30° = 1,29°

4. Loosen the screws (D) on the swivel profile so that you can move the external unit up

or down. Place a rod or plank over the dish as shown in Illustration 4. Now use a

protractor to set the angle calculated.

5. Now loosen the screw (C) resp. (B) on the swivel profile, and slowly turn the dish in

an easterly or westerly direction (angle of azimuth), until you receive the television

picture via the receiver.

6. Some fine-tuning of the dish is now still required. Ideally, you should call up the

transponder information (see operating manual of the digital receiver).

7. Now carefully adjust the azimuth (East/West) angle as well as the angle of elevation

so that the indicator for signal strength resp. quality is at a maximum level.

8. Now tighten all screws, and take care to note that reception does not deteriorate.

The dis his now completely mounted, and has an optimum position fort he reception of

the desired satellite.
