CZSKRUNO SVFI DÄSLTRHUDE1. Installing the outside unit Before commencing the installing process, use the following illustration and table to ensure that everything that is needed to install the VIOTENNE 55 outside unit has been supplied.

through the slot in the rotating prism

so that the thread points away from the rotating prism. > Insert retaining bar

as shown in the illustration. > In each case insert one flat washer

onto the two threaded ends of the screw

and screw on a nut 14, turning it several times. Install the rotating prism on the reflector support > Insert the rotating prism 5 onto reflector support 2 so that the hole in the rotating prism 5 and the top hole in the reflector support 2 are positioned on top of each other. > Insert a screw 11 through a flat washer 12 and into the hole of the rotating prism 5. > On the other side, place a flat washer 12 onto the screw 11, put a nut 14 onto the threads and hand tighten. > Turn the rotating prism 5 so that its lower corner is pointing at the elevation angle EL, corresponding to your location. > Insert a second screw 11 through the flat washer 13 and into the hole in the reflector support 2 beneath the rotating prism 5. > On the other side, place a flat washer 13 onto the screw 11, put a nut 14 onto the threads and gently tighten. Install the swivelling prism on the reflector support > Hold the reflector 1 in front of reflector support 2, as shown in the illustration. > Insert one nut 14 into each of the holes provided on reflector support 2. > Now connect up the reflector 1 and reflector support 2 to each other using the 4 screws 8. Fitting the LNB arm onto the reflector support > Insert LNB arm 3 into the opening on the front of reflector support 2 and push it in fully, so that it is free of play as it sits in the opening. If necessary, tap LNB arm 3 gently from the front. If you do so, please ensure that you do not bend LNB arm 3. > Insert screw 10 through the hole and screw it into a nut 14. Fitting the LNB onto the LNB arm > Separate the two parts of the LNB holder 4 from each other and remove the two connecting bond bridges. > Hook the two parts of LNB holder 4 up to each other on the top side. > Place the LNB into the opening of LNB holder 4 (the LNB connections must be pointing downwards at the back) and fold them together. > Insert a nut 14 into the LNB holder and screw these together using screw 9. > Now insert LNB holder 4 onto LNB arm 3 and ensure that the former hooks into LNB arm 3.

Selecting the location Make sure that there is a clear view towards the south from the chosen installation location for receiving ASTRA 19° East. You can use the graphic shown below to see whether you have allowed for being far enough away from any nearby obstruction in order to avoid adversely affecting reception due to this obstruction. Take care to ensure that the reflector is not overshadowed by an overhanging roof when installed on a terrace or balcony. The outside unit should be assembled on a special vertical mast (diameter 42mm) or a wall mounted holder.

Safety instructions Take care to ensure that the applicable European standards and VDE rules for guaranteeing electrical safety (e.g. VDE 0855, Part 1) are observed when installing. Ask your specialist supplier about this if necessary.

4. Fitting the F plug

Warning! Only fit the F plug when the receiver is switched off! When fitting the F plug, ensure that it is correctly fitted so as to avoid any operational faults or even the destruction of the Sat-receiver. > Remove 6mm of insulation from the end of the wiring using a sharp knife as far as the internal lead. When doing this, ensure that the internal lead is not damaged. > Remove the remaining wiring from the surrounding flex. Now remove 10mm of the outer plastic sleeve until the sheathing flex is opened up without being damaged. > Ensure that none of the wiring from the surrounding flex is touching the internal lead. > Now turn the F plug carefully on the cable until the inner lead end is flush with the front edge of the F plug Finally check once again that none of the wire from the surrounding flex is touching the internal cable lead. The F plug is now correctly installed. Observe the appropriate assembly method by using Crimp F plugs and follow the manufacturer's instructions. No exposed wires!

EN5. Aligning the outside unit The outside unit should be aligned using a measuring device. It can also be carried out using a sat-finder. Should neither of these be available, the unit can be aligned using a receiver and a television set.

1. Connect the LNB and the receiver via a suitable coaxial cable.

2. Close the receiver and the TV set and set the receiver to a programme setting on

which a satellite programme can be received (e.g. ARD for ASTRA).

3. Now set the angle that corresponds to your location, using the imprinted scale and

lock the reflector (the reference point on the graduated scale is the lower corner of the rotating prism).

4. Now turn the reflector slowly in an eastwards or westwards direction (azimuth angle)

until you receive the TV picture for the setting.

5. The reflector still needs to be fine-tuned. To do this, it is a good idea to call up the

receiver status display (with the signal level and quality). Check the receiver instruction book when doing so.

6. Now carefully change the azimuth (east/west) and angle of elevation in such a way

that the signal level and signal quality show the highest possible amplitude level.

7. Now tighten all the screws and make sure that reception has not been adversely

affected when you have done this. The reflector is now fully assembled and optimally adjusted to the desired satellite.
