SATFINDER USER GUIDE
WIRING AND OPERATION:
1. Connect a jumper cable from the LNB to the Satellite Finder’s “TO LNB” input.
2. Connect the “TO REC” to 13-18V DC power which comes from the Satellite Receiver.
3. Make sure the Satellite Finder is properly connected. Plug in the AC cord and turn on the Satellite Receiver. There will be a
Slight reading on the scale of around 1.
4. Make coarse dish adjustments by setting Azimuth and Inclination.
5. Set the reading to around 5 on the Satellite Finder by adjusting the Level Control.
6. Adjust dish position, feedhorn position and polarization to have the highest reading on the finder. If full scale, reduce the
reading by turning the level control counterclockwise.
7. Remove the jump cable and Satellite Finder. Resume connection of Satellite Receiver and LNB.
IMPORTANT:
● When using this unit to install C Band Dish, you must not place the Satellite Finder in front of the dish to avoid always full
scale.
● When using high gain LNB’s, gains of 60dB or higher, Insert a 5dB attenuator in between the LNB and Satellite Finder, or
replace the jump cable with a 20ft RG-59U.
● If the read-out is jumping, the sensitivity is too high. Reduce the sensitivity by adjusting the level control on the Satellite
Finder, or increase the level control by turning it clockwise.
