Section 2 OPERATION
IMPORTANT! For satellite acquisition, there must be a clear “line of sight” to the southern sky. Mountains,
buildings, trees, telephone poles, etc. can all block the satellite signal from reaching the antenna
(inside the VuQube).
NOTE: Pressing and releasing buttons on the remote control will produce an electronic click.
IMPORTANT! STEP 5. You must watch your TV for signal strength while rotating the antenna in step 5.
See your receiver’s owner’s manual to determine how to display the signal meter screen on
your TV.
When pressing the left and right arrows, the remote will continuously beep with a short pause
in between: (beep - beep - beep...)
If the unit reaches its rotational limit in either direction, the remote will display REVERSE
DIRECTION and beep rapidly: (beep beep beep...) Press other rotational arrow to reverse
direction.
