OPERATION TUNING ANTENNA STEP 1. Step outside your vehicle and, using a compass, determine which direction is North. (Standing in or near vehicle can give you an incorrect reading.) The more accurately you determine North, the easier it will be to find the satellite(s). STEP 1. Your receiver should indicate it is receiving a signal. To tune your antenna for the best signal strength, slowly move the antenna left, then right until you have found the position that gives the highest signal strength.
THINGS YOU NEED Screwdrivers (Phillips and slot) 1-3/4" hole saw 7/16" wrench TROUBLE SHOOTING Antenna Reflector at 900 Sig na l fr om sa tel lite 240 look angle LNBF 1. Be sure you have a clear line of sight. The signal from the satellite(s) WILL NOT pass through trees, buildings,mountains etc. Remember the antenna has a 240 offset, this means that when the antenna is straight up and down, (900) it is looking 240 into the sky. See Fig. 2. 2.
STEP 3. Assemble dish to backup using bolts and nuts provided, Figure 4. STEP 4. Mount dish on roof in upright position. Rotate clockwise to stop, Figure 5. Dish will be toward back of vehicle when in stowed or travel position. The word FRONT is embossed on the base. This should face front of vehicle. Secure to roof using screws (provided). The travel bracket should be mounted to roof 6-1/8" from base of dish, toward back of vehicle. See Figure 6.
to compensate for roof/ceiling slope, be sure to allow for this extra thickness. You may add an extension to the directional handle for thicker roofs. Each extension will increase the length of the directional handle by 2-1/4". TOP OF ROOF WEDGE Measure from top of roof to ceiling. TOP OF ROOF ➤ STEP 16. Install the washer and nut on the WITHOUT ROOF WEDGE Measure from top of roof wedge to ceiling. ➤ STEP 15. Press the directional handle onto the hub.

FIGURE 13 CAUTION: After INITIAL INSTALLATION, the antenna SHOULD ROTATE APPROXIMATELY 360°FROM TRAVEL POSITION. The pointer on the DIRECTIONAL HANDLE should point towards the RED SCREW on the ROTATION CLAMP when in TRAVEL POSITION.

DIGITAL ELEVATION SENSOR INTERIOR WALLPLATE Step 12. See Figure 14. If using the SM-1000 surface mount box, feed cable through hole in box. STEP 13: Connect wires coming from sensor on roof to wall plate display in vehicle. It is important to properly connect the wires at the roof and the wall plate. (Plug will click when inserted properly.) The system is designed to use a 9 volt battery OR +12 VDC from vehicle. Do not use both! Improper wiring will cause damage to the product.
