Satellite search

To measure a satellite, select the desired satellite in the list. Additionally you can select a TP of your choice. Set the elevation angle of the mirror (Astra1 in Germany 30-33° depending on the location) and turn the mirror until the meter has detected a signal. You can see this by the green smily. Wait for the NIT (satellite detection) evaluation and check if the desired satellite is displayed. If the correct satellite position is displayed, you can start fine tuning, otherwise continue to turn the mirror until the correct satellite is displayed. For fine tuning, turn the mirror left/right until the best value is reached, do the same with the altitude setting. Finally you can turn the skew on the LNB to the optimal setting. Now you have aligned the mirror in the best possible way. By pressing the TV symbol, you can also perform a picture check.
