What you need to install a satellite plates. Installing and self-configuration "Tricolor TV" antenna for satellite

Send the material to you on E-mail

Television has long been an integral part of life. Even in the villages rarely find the house where TV is not installed. Moreover, broadcasting channels can occur in different ways: through the extended cable or satellite. The ability to broadcast through the cable is limited and the quality of the channels is worse. Therefore, many consumers think how to set up a satellite antenna on their own, so as not to spend money on the call of the master.

Installed antenna

In space at the level of Equator Earth, television satellites rotate, which direct the signal on the planet, where special devices are received - antennas, and then this signal passes with decoding on the console to TV and transmits the image.

In this case, the satellite antenna acts as a peculiar lens that collects radio waves into one bundle, reinforcing for stable reception. At the same time, the farther there is a satellite from the equipment, the more the diameter of the plate will be required.

Accordingly, without high-quality receiving equipment, the signal to the TV will not arrive. Therefore, it is importantly important to choose a plate, the signal from which enters the convector, then converted and goes to the receiver, and only then falls on the screen.

The receiver is set near TV. The amount and clarity of the transmitted channels depends on the power and quality of this equipment. The installed software allows you to "catch" and recognize a huge number of TV shows. Updating the firmware version of the receiver, you can access new channels.It is such an affordable and efficient television that gives birth to a question of how to set up a satellite antenna on its own, and then the TV channels.

How is the installation of a satellite antenna independently (instructions for dummies)

In order not to assemble the parts kit for satellite TV, it can be bought in a specialized store or order via the Internet. Models are updated, it is not worth it too outdated. This package includes the following items:

After the acquisition of equipment, the question arises, how to independently install the satellite antenna on the roof or outside the window.

How to make an antenna with your own hands for the TV.In the article, consider uncomplicated methods how to make an antenna with your own hands for the TV that you can come in handy.

Choosing a place

First, collect the instructions for the antenna itself. Check the density of tightening all bolts and nuts. Only one mount leave weakly twisted (to the convector itself), which will be responsible for a vertical slope.

Convector must be attached to in the middle, watch it length. The exit for the cable should be placed perpendicular to the ground. Full consolidation occurs after obtaining a clear signal and sufficient power.

Now you need to select the installation location. Usually fasten on the wall or roof. On the desired side, the sun will fall at lunchtime. You can see how the same equipment has the same equipment.

Most plates are directed in one direction, most often - this is 56 degrees of Eastern longitude (Trikalore and NTV Plus). If you connect to the Rainbow TV, the equipment will be directed a little left (on 19 °). The continent of TV and telecaratus is installed at 85 ⁰.

When selecting the direction and installation location, you need to check the signal to do not interfere with foreign objects, that is, the antenna should not be blown away. After all checks, you can move to the hardware fixing step.

Installing bracket

The bracket should be firmly fixed, and different bolts use for different walls. For brick, concrete or walls of wood, a plumbing screw with a head on 17 or 13 is suitable. If you use a standard antenna with a diameter of 90 s, then the length of 6 cm screws.

In the tree, you can simply screw the screw, for concrete or brick first they first do the hole by the perforator, and wholesale put a dowel.

Important! If you mount satellite equipment to foam concrete or aerated concrete, then purchase suitable dowels.

If the dwelling is covered with siding, then longer plumbing bolts will be required, as well as mounted spacers from metal tubes. First, prepare the holes of the desired diameter, then, make spacers and install the antenna.

You can fix equipment and on a metal beam, for this you should use screws for metal with a special drill with a hexagon head.When the equipment is collected, but the last bolt is not yet twisted tightly, it is necessary to check the quality of the signal. To do this, apply the device to configure the satellite antenna, you can configure and without it, with your own hands.

How to configure satellite antenna yourself: checking the satellite signal

When an antenna is mounted on the roof, it remains to connect the cable to the receiver and make settings, but it is at this stage that the question arises, the direction of the roof dish.

You can constantly descend and check the receiver signal or lift the portable TV to the roof and check on it. But there is a variant much easier: buy a special instrument for checking the satellite signal, without departing from the antenna itself.

If you decide to save, consider how to configure the satellite dish without the device yourself:

Connect the power cord (220W) to the plate.
Nearby install the receiver, which was attached complete.
Bring a portable TV check place.
Connect everything according to the scheme and check, adjusting the direction of the plate.

If there is no desire to drag everything up the top, then you still have to buy the device, while the tuner and TV will remain in their places. The addition signal will be displayed on the instrument screen. In this case, the power to this equipment comes from the receiver, so it will only be left to adjust the direction of the plate itself.

The simplest options on the screen output the scale and serve sound signals, more expensive - will display the frequency and range, which will allow you to quickly adjust the direction of the antenna.

Connecting and adjusting the satellite antenna tuner yourself

Before moving to the answer to the question, how to configure the channels on the satellite antenna, you should attach the tuner to TV yourself. To do this, you can use several options from manufacturers.

Table 1. Connect tuner to TV yourself

How	Picture
Make a connection using the standard HDMI cable, the required connector is almost all modern TV.
Sometimes the SCART cable can be found in the kit (comb).
One of the most common ways to connect tuner and TV are tulips. Insert the colors in the appropriate connectors from behind or on the front panel of the TV.
Another version of Tulips Y, PB, PR can also meet in the configuration.
The last option is to connect through a coaxial cable with RF OUT.

By connecting the equipment and turning it on it, go directly to setting the channels on TV. To do this, first click on the menu button on the tuner remote control. If nothing happened on the TV screen, something is not connected so or not included in the network.

Satellite television has long been not luxury and there are in many houses. Installation of this design has always been considered a complex process. Do you know how to set up a satellite antenna yourself? It turns out if you understand the installation technology, everything is not so difficult. Let's try to analyze how this process takes place, and what difficulties lie down.

Using a satellite device a great solution for both apartments and private housing

Before purchasing satellite equipment, it is important to pick up the operator first. Satellite television variety works from various orbital satellites that catch a signal from stations and transmit it to large spaces on the ground.

The antenna determines the signal, and then transmits it to the converter and further on the tuner. And only after that the decoding process occurs, and the signal is transmitted to the TV already in the form of sounds and images.

Channels in Russian are transmitted from certain satellites. To receive a signal from a specific object, it is important to correctly set the reception frequency. To do this, you need to know how to configure the satellite antenna on its own.

About 30 channels in Russian can be obtained through the Satellite of Yamal 201. From the operators it is worth choosing among those such as tricolor - TV, NTV - plus or rainbow - TV.

The table presents prices for certain models of satellite plates.

Picture	Models	price, rub.

How to set up a satellite antenna yourself: Mounting nuances

Before you independently install a satellite antenna, let's figure it out from which parts such equipment consists of:

a plate that perceives the wave and sends it to the converter. Better if its diameter is more than 90 cm;
the head (converter) receives a message and transmits it to the receiver;
the tuner receives a signal, performs decoding and transmits in understandable to the TV;
the bracket provides a durable antenna mount on the wall, which allows it to turn it into different directions;
the cable is the conductor received signal. It connects the receiver and converter;
if you plan to receive multiple channels, the Diseqc device is applied to connect the converters in the total cable.

To install and configure the satellite antenna, prepare such tools: drill, wrench, crosshead screwdriver, hammer and isolate.

High-quality satellite antenna installation independently: instructions for teapots

To install equipment for all the rules, you must know exactly where it needs to be sent. To do this will allow the Agsat.com.ua/Satdirect service. There you need to specify a certain placement of equipment, as well as pick up the satellite. After these steps, the desired direction will appear on the screen.

To find out the exact coordinates of the place of installation of antennas Use the Directory or search on the Internet. Also need information on data transfer from the satellite. In this case, the location of the satellite along the horizon, as well as the frequency of the transmitter and the speed of maximum information transfer. Through search engines, you can find information about the transmitter.

It is important to correctly calculate the angles of slopes and turning the antenna. This can be done manually (which is very difficult) or apply special software applications. Such a service requires entering certain information: location and satellite names, as well as geographic coordinates. The program provides results in graphical form.

Accurate configuration of an antenna device requires a certain preparation. Prepare screwdrivers of various sizes, a set of cables, extension and multiple sockets to connect the power supply.

Before mounting the system, make sure the signal is available. In this case, the antenna should be kept in hand. If everything is in order, the bracket is installed. The perforator is deepened under anchors. In this case, their size is selected taking into account the material of the wall and mass of the structure. After fixing the bracket, you can mount an antenna. At the same time, information is useful to you to configure the satellite antenna on your own.

How to independently configure the satellite antenna tuner after connecting

The antenna setting is made after it is connected to the receiver. To do this, the wire is thrown from the converter to the tune. Mounting cable is made like this:

creaches a layer of insulation in the cable, somewhere 1.5 cm from the edge;
braid fenced out;
the average inner part of the wiring is freed from the foil, then purified and put on the F-ka;
in this case, the core must be extended no more than 2 mm;
the same needs to be done with the other side of the cable;
the cable is connected to the converter, and the other side is extended to the receiver.

Then you need to set up. At the same time, you should learn in advance how to set up different channels on the satellite antenna yourself.

First, the antenna is recommended to set approximately. Then the appropriate satellite is selected in the receiver settings. Its characteristics also need to be stailed. This is the frequency, polarization and speed. In this case, two strips will appear on the screen. One demonstrates that the plate caught the desired wave, and the second displays power. With the correct installation of the equipment, it must show at least 50% of the signal. Then you need to improve the quality. Here certain actions need to be carried out with a plate. It is important to mark changes on the signal scale. Therefore, the system is better to configure with the assistant.

It is worth starting with a device turn up and right. Then the plate is slowly turning to the left. If the signal is not caught, then let the antenna of several millimeters down and move the plates. Setup involves the search by manual fit. First achieve though 30% of the quality. And then, moving down the degree, make a more detailed fit. When quality is 60-80%, then further settings are made using specific action with the converter.

Then setting the individual heads. The converter indicates a specific satellite.

How to configure the tuner can be viewed in the manual for it. First select Language Menu for the receiver and make it firmware. Then you should put the time zone and time. After that, select the satellite and all the necessary settings for it. When using Diseqc, you need to put the input number to connect the converter.

Then output the signal level data, and the antenna is configured. When you make sure that the signal is normal and the antenna is configured, scan satellite. For the power on the channels, a map of a specific operator is inserted. In some cases, you can use a special device to configure satellite antennas with your own hands.

How to set up a TV?

Finally, you need to scan the satellite on the content of the channels, as well as configure the TV. At the same time, the channels are built in a certain sequence so that they are convenient to search. If access is paid, you need to use the unlocking card.

Satellite antennas have so many advantages that an increasing number of people think about their installation. With the proper use of tools and recommendations, you can independently install this wonderful equipment.

HotBird is a European satellite with a large number of foreign programs. Hotberd is connected to view Italian, Armenian, Arab, French, Polish, Portuguese, African, as well as the Channels of the Middle East.

Reception is made on the equipment set:

Satellite antenna 90-120cm.
Linear converter.
Cable.

Channels without subscription charge (open) are consistently accepted on a plate of 90cm. Coded paid foreign programs operate on antennas 120-140cm (Sky Italia, Nova, PolSat, BIS TV France). These data are for Moscow and the Moscow region, as well as the nearest regions. The size of the antenna for its region, see hotbird coverage map.

Instructions for self-configuration antenna on the HOTBIRD satellite

1. Determination of the possibility of receiving a satellite

The direction of the satellite is determined by the program on the Internet or on the compass. First option: Go to the Geonames website, select the satellite name (Eutelsat Hotbird 13B / 13C / 13e). We drive the exact address, look at the map. The direction of the satellite will be shown by the color line. We check whether the windows overlook the desired direction, check the presence of obstacles to the reception path.

Execution of the compass procedure: we find the south mark and count 24 degrees to the west to the mark "204" (the south pointer corresponds to 180 degrees + 24 degrees to the Satellite Hotberd). In this direction, the satellite signal comes. We check the presence of interference on the method of reception.

In the absence of a signal from the windows or wall of the building, the satellite antenna is connected to the roof. The cable is starting around the facade or low-current riser.

Attention! Only an expert after check out and measuring the signal guarantees the reception of the satellite! The cost of the service is 1000 ₽.

For independent measurements, we use the prefix where the scale of level and quality is present.

2. Assembling equipment, orientation to the satellite.

We carry out the procedure using a receiver with a TV or an instrument to configure antennas. The device facilitates work, as there is no need to carry TV with the console to the installation site. The device shows the strength and power of the signal, there is a sound indicator. But there are its own features: the device does not determine which satellite it accepted, so after receiving the maximum values \u200b\u200bfor the device, check the channels on the receiver.

In both options, first exhibit the parameters of the satellite in the receiver:

Name EUTELSAT HotBird 13B / 13C / 13e.
Transponder (frequency): 12322 MHz, Polarization: H, Flow speed: 27500, Error correction: 3/4.
Diskes - off. 22Khz -Bedified.
Convert settings (only if required): upper heterodyne 10600 MHz, lower 9750 MHz.

The transponder can be selected from the general frequency list to this satellite, or through the "Manual Search" section. On the screen, we will appear 2 scales: level and signal quality. It is important for us to fill both scales to maximum values, but not less than 60-70%. Full list of hotbird channels and frequencies.

3. Setting up HOTBIRD satellite antenna

Before performing work, we find data on the corner of the place and azimuth of the desired region (if there is no required city in the list, we use the program to calculate SatCalc):

Region	Corner place	Azimuth
Arkhangelsk	211	13
Volgograd	219	26
Yekaterinburg	232	13
Kazan	231	21
Kaliningrad	189	27
Krasnodar	215	32

I exhibit a plate at the corner of the place and azimuth of your region (Moscow and the area of \u200b\u200bthe angle of place 208, Azimuth 23).
Converter turn to 1.5.8 ° So that the value is from above.
Antenna mirror exhibit vertically with a slight slope down.
Slowly move the antenna for 1-2mm left-right, we are waiting for a few seconds, we look at filling the scale. If the signal does not appear, then change the arrangement of the antenna (up-down), continue to move left-to the right. We repeat the procedure until you reach the maximum values \u200b\u200bin two scales, but not less than 60-70%.
Fix an antenna, tighten the bolts

Astra 19 + HotBird Antenna Setup

The combination consists of two satellites - Astra 19 and HotBird 13. Satellites are located close, so you can connect them to one antenna. Astra 19 - watching German, French programs. Hotbird - Italian, Polish, Arab, African, Asian TV channels.

Equipment will be required:

Satellite antenna 1.2m-1.4m.
Converter Linear polarization, 1 output - 2pcs.
Multifide - 1pc.
Diskes switch for 2 - 1pc.

Multifide is a holder for the second converter. Standard package of plates involves the presence of one attachment. When connecting an antenna to several satellites, a multifide is used.

The disk switch is a device that will switch the power between two converters (two satellites). If the channel from the HOTBIRD satellite is selected, then the power is fed to the appropriate converter.

The procedure for setting up an antenna 120cm:

We collect and install a plate on the bracket.
In the central focus, connect the converter to Astra 19, since the signal from this satellite is weaker.
We collect and install the multifide according to the instructions. Multifide We have left (antenna before the adjoint).
Adjust the distance between the Astra 19 Converter Center and the Hotbird Converter Center for 83mm.
Dek Mounting: We take 2 cables from the converters, in 1 disk input plug in Astra 19, in the second from HotBird. Output (out) to the receiving.
Connect the receiver to the antenna and to the TV, display the menu on the screen.
I set in the prefix the working frequency of the ASTRA satellite: transponder (frequency): 12 545, Polarization H, flow rate 22 000, Error correction 5/6.
We have 2 scales: level and quality, we will customize the antenna.
Unscrew the ASTRA converter to -10.3, the hotbird converter to -15.8, values \u200b\u200bshould be on top.
Slowly move the antenna to the left-right, we wait for a couple of seconds, check the filling of the scales on the console. If the signal does not appear, change the arrangement of the antenna (up-down).
We repeat the procedure before filling the scale. They should be filled in at least 60-70%.
Customize the Astra 19 Satellite Channels on the receiver. If all channels are found and work consistently, you begin to adjust the disk switch.
In the section Settings section, set "Enable" the switch function.
Go to the settings. The version must correspond to the one that is written on the device case.
Exhibiting the same entry that was used when connected. May be denoted by either numbers - 1.2 or letters A, B.
At the first input of Astra, on the second HotBird.
Customize channels on HotBird. If there is no signal, or it is weak. Move the Hotbird Converter to the left-right, check again.
Fix an antenna, tighten the bolts.

Setting the antenna for 3 satellites Amos 4 + Sirius 5 (Astra 4W) + HotBird 13

The combination consists of 3 satellites: AMOS 4W, HotBird 13e, Sirius 4.9e (new name of the ASTRA 4A satellite). Hotberd - European Channels, Asian and Africa programs. With Amos and Sirius - Channels in Ukrainian.

Equipment will be required:

Satellite antenna 120-140cm.
Converter Linear Polarization 1 Exit - 3pcs.
Multifide - 2pcs.
Disk switch on 4 - 1pc

Multifi - Additional holders for converters. Standard equipment satellite plates involves 1 holder. The disk switch will combine the signal from 3 antennas and switch the power between them (the power is supplied to the satellite converter, whose channel was selected on the console).

The procedure for setting up an antenna 120cm:

We collect and install an antenna on the bracket.
In the central focus I exhibit hotbird. To the left of Hotbird first the converter on Sirius, then amos.
The distance between the centers of the first and second converter (HotBird-Sirius) 83mm, the second and third (Sirius-AMOS) 87mm.
Unscrew the converter (see degrees on the irradiate): hotbird -15.8, Sirius -20.2, AMOS -24.3. The value should be on top.
Connect 1x4: 1 HOTBIRD input, 2 Sirius input, 3 AMOS input.
We take a signal from the cable from the outlet (OUT) and connect to the antenna input of the console (LNB IN, ANT IN).
We connect the receiver with an antenna and TV, display the menu on the TV screen.
In the console, choose the Hotbird satellite, go into a sheet of frequencies (transponders), we look for the frequency of 12322 MHz.
Full Parameters: Frequency 12322 MHz, Polarization H, Flow speed 27500, Correction of errors 3/4.
Antenna exhibit vertically, with a slight tilt down. Preliminary configuration of azimuth and angle of seats for a satellite Hotberd will simplify the task (see above data).
Slowly move the plate on 1-2mm left to the right, we wait a few seconds, check the filling of the level scale and the quality of the signal on the screen.
When this operation does not bring the result, we try to move up-down mirrors, continue the setting.
We achieve the maximum filling of the signal scales - at least 60-70%.
Check the settings of the channels on the console. If everything works well, the signal is stable, proceed to setting the channels to other satellites.
The receiver includes the function of the protocol-disc. The version must match the versions of the disk connected by us. Typically, these numbers are indicated on the housing. The main part of the switches use the protocol 1.0-2.0
Expose the desired disc inputs. 1 HOTBIRD input, 2 - Sirius, 2 - Amos. There may be alphabetic designations A-B-C-D.
Customize channels from Sirius satellites, Amos. In the prefix, as a rule, a frequency leaf is already present. But you can also perform in manual search.
Sirius frequency: 11766, Polarization H, Flow speed 27 500, Error correction 3/4.
Amos frequency: 11140, Polarization H, flow rate 30 000, 3/4 error correction.
Be sure to activate the network search function, as this will help us set up the entire transponder sheet of the satellite.
When the paid channels for viewing are not planned, select only open or FTA channels.
If the signal of any satellite is not stable, it is adjusted to the converter.

Masters of the company "Spectrum TV" will provide installation and configuration services for satellites: Hotbird, Amos, Sirius, Astra. Phone +7 962 963 31 08.

Recently, satellite television is simply with colossal demand, and there is nothing surprising. This method of broadcast allows you to improve the quality of the channels, increase their number, and just it is much more convenient than using modems or cable television.

Introduction

It is also worth noting that the installation of the satellite antenna can be made independently, and for this you do not need to possess unique knowledge in physics Or be able to use the soldering iron. Installing the satellite antenna with your own hands, on the contrary, passes quickly and simple. It will only be necessary to follow the recommendations, as well as use specific basic knowledge in astronomy.

Use satellite antenna

As a rule, before installing the satellite, many people think about the presence of permission. Is it necessary to obtain permission to install the satellite antenna? In fact, you can do without permission, because getting television services through satellite It is free, but it will not be possible to watch all channels.

Many channels will be marked with an asterisk or an exclamation mark, that is, broadcasting can be made only after payment. In order to open full access to all channels, you need to buy a special key card.

Permission may be required to install antenna, but from the side of utilities. If the "plate" is installed on the roof of the building or carrying structures, it will be necessary to get a special document that confirms the installation of the satellite, and otherwise the antenna can simply remove and at the same time a person will pay a fine.

If you install a satellite antenna on the side part of the building, that is, where there are no supporting structures, then you can do without permission, but the equipment will constantly suffer from gusts wind, humidity, cold. The effects of external factors significantly reduces the deadlines.

Many residents of Russia mainly order the installation of a satellite antenna through firms that undertake all the obligations, including receiving permission to install equipment from H Hwell.

General information about satellite television

Before starting the installation of the satellite antenna, you need to know some general information that ultimately will help when setting up equipment. To begin with, it is worth understanding what is a geostationary orbit. This is an orbit, which is at an altitude of 35,768 kilometers, and equates to the equator. It is at such an altitude, the speed of the land is satellite. In fact, the satellite in such conditions stands still.

It is the standing satellite in one place and gives the necessary result that allows it to be used to quickly transmit information. This information is required when installing antenna, as it will need to be configured to the satellite location. In addition, competent configuration can help increase the number of free channels.

Sometimes there may be a question, and whether it is possible to catch the broadcasting immediately from several satellites. Naturally, since the rays of filing information from satellites, which are in space, often intersect, but mainly channels can be useless. People set up satellite antennas most often with orientation to your country and language. If this is taken into account, then the number of satellites for configuration can be chosen significantly less. In many regions, only one satellite can be available.

Homemade satellite TV

When installing satellite television, as already mentioned earlier, you will need to configure or, as they say, in professional circles, adjustment. This is a kind of selection of a thin angle, in order to find broadcasting from a certain satellite. For a person who does not have experience in setting up satellite antenna, It is difficult to produce such a job. But you can call the masters at any moment, which will make the altitude for counting minutes, because he already has experience, and the eyes are messed up on the selection of the necessary angle.

The cost of carrying out such works is not too big, but it is not necessary to hope that only once needs to be performed once. Any squall wind or snowfall can knock down the antenna, and at the same time it will be necessary to call the wizard. What for? You can do everything with your own hands and dial the necessary experience in setting up the practice.

Sometimes even if all the parameters of television settings are met, there is simply no broadcasting or you can see only channels with poor quality. The reason is usually in the fact that the antenna is installed in villages or villages that are in lowlands and at the same time cannot qualitatively catch the satellite signal, and after all, he "shines" strongly at the desired point. Therefore, when buying a satellite, you need to consult, about what satellites will be able to catch the "plate" and choose an acceptable option for yourself. After that, when tuning it is worth paying attention to some details.

Select antenna

The selection of the satellite antenna is mainly reduced only to the purchase of a model with a necessary diameter. As a rule, it is the quality of reception is mainly from the diameter of the "plates" Broadcasting of satellites, but if in St. Petersburg may have enough 60 cm, then for the southern regions, a large length will be required, which can be equal to 1.5 m.

It is worth noting that many people when choosing antenna think that a large diameter can catch a huge number of channels or improve the quality of broadcasting. No, in fact, with a large diameter of the plate Channels can become more, but their quality is significantly reduced. Most of the satellite signal is reflected from the mirror of the satellites "Plates". When choosing an antenna with a small diameter, the quality is better, because the signal is focused from the satellite. In addition, such equipment is much easier to customize.

We must not forget that when buying equipment you need to additionally acquire and multifitis. This will allow you to set several converters per satellite plate. Sellers are usually wondering if equipment has one socket or multifitis. It is necessary to choose the second option, even if only one socket will be used. This not only gives an advantage in using the converter, but also when breakdown in one cell, the equipment can be switched to other sockets.

Selecting a converter and receiver

The converter is an important part in any satellite antenna. As a rule, this item is selected separately to the "plate", but what part of the work does this equipment perform? The converter is used to catch a signal from the satellite and convert a strong signal that punches atmospheric layers into a light flow of information for the receiver.

Most often, people acquire converters with circular polarization, as they are not so sensitive. Moreover, such converters allow you to catch a high-quality signal.which will not be changed depending on the weather on the street or due to the deviation of the satellite in orbit. It is important to remember that the content of the broadcast will be directly dependent on the selection of the model and the converter firm.

The receiver opposite hardly affects the quality of broadcasting, and mainly its choice is reduced to the cost and number of functions.

Installation of satellite antenna

On the Internet you can find a sufficiently large number of all kinds of schemes that allow you to install a satellite antenna, but the phased work and recommendations are difficult to find. When installing antenna, it is necessary to be guided by the recommendations that allow you to avoid errors.

Order of adjustment

As a rule, for high-quality adjustment antenna, we need to take the TV with the receiver on the street, after connecting it to the extension. Then:

Conclusion

The installation and configuration of the satellite antenna can even perform a beginner. This will save a large amount of cash, but the main thing is not to make mistakes and do everything exactly according to the instructions.

Each person will prefer to look, in addition to the channels of central television broadcasting, another 20-30 thematic TV channels in high resolution. What is needed for this? Select one of the Russian satellite broadcast operators, purchase a set of equipment and customize it.

In most cases, the setup and installation of the equipment is included in the package of purchase, so after the acquisition of "plates" comes installers that perform the necessary work. However, it is quite possible to cope with this task, and we will tell you how to do it.

Antenna device and equipment set

Considering that the instruction is designed for a novice, start with Azov. All satellite antennas present in the domestic digital television market are divided into two groups:

Offset.

Straight.

The difference between models is the principle of work.

In straightfocus antennas, the signal converter is located exactly in the center at a small distance from the mirror. In offset - the signal is reflected at an angle, respectively, the converter is shifted relative to the axis.

The method of their installation depends on the type of antenna. Straightly mounted at right angles, which corresponds to the satellite trajectory over the horizon line. With offset analogues, the situation is different. Here you need to refer to the school course of physics and recall that the angle of falling the beam is equal to the angle of reflection.

Therefore, such models are installed with a slight inclination relative to the satellite.

Satellite "Plate" consists of the following elements:

Bracket fastening.

Reflector mirrors.

Emission with a removable casing that protects against precipitation.

Depolarizer - converts circular polarization into a linear frequency.

Converter with signal amplifier.

In addition, the base supply includes:

tuner responsible for the transmission of channels;

disc - switch between converters receiving signal from the satellite;

coaxial cable with connection connections.

The package also includes connecting plugs, anchor bolts and dowels.

Install antenna

Immediately note that the installation should be performed in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instruction, which is available in the equipment kit. If you do not comply with the mandatory rules on the high-quality image you can forget. The correct installation of the antenna consists of these steps:

Selecting direction. Mirror "Plates" always looks south, while foreign objects should not fall into the target. If the antenna is installed in a private house, it makes sense to fix it at an altitude of 7-10 m From the Earth: this will reduce the level of air dustiness and will help noticeably improve image quality.

Installation of fasteners. First, attachment brackets are installed, which are fixed by anchor bolts or collet studs. The main rack is installed strictly vertically, otherwise configured the equipment will be problematic.

Assembly and installation "Plate". The antenna is collected, to which converters are screwed. These items always install connections down to avoid contact oxidation. All compounds are perfectly isolated, for greater reliability, the layer of sealant is covered. The assembled antenna is hung on the bracket and fixed by fasteners.

After that, a ready-made "plate" must be orienting in the direction of the broadcast satellite. For this, the exact geographic coordinates are defined, a mobile device with satellite navigation module will help.

Azimuth finding a broadcast satellite can be found on the provider's website, where there is an inclination corner calculator.

To adjust the antenna on the reception of the signal, these actions are performed:

TV and tuner are connected to the convepor through a coaxial cable. The equipment connects to the network, the menu items are sequentially selected in the receiver menu: Installation -\u003e Manual Search.

Then the antenna itself is adjusted, sharing relative to the installation axis. It is necessary that the equipment "caught" satellite.

When a signal appears, you need to achieve optimal quality: the level of reception is not bad. above 60%.

After that, the mirror is neatly tightened, trying not to knock down the azimuth.

Upon pre-configuration, it is impossible to be in front of the antenna: any items found in the reception area have adversely affect the image quality.

Tuning tuning

The next important step in the installation of the satellite antenna is to configure the tuner. The equipment of some providers automatically defines the satellite, the user remains only to catch the necessary TV channels.

If there is a need for fine configuration or change the parameters specified by the manufacturer, go to the section "Menu", choose subparagraph "Installation". There will be several sections here, so we consider it in detail, for which every item is responsible.

Satellite. The first line indicates the name of the broadcast satellite and its location on a geopolar orbit. The name of the translator does not affect the equipment setting.

Sometimes the desired satellite is generally absent in the list. In this case, select any translator and adjust to its frequency.

Type LNB.. This defines the type of the installed converter. Devices are two types: C. and Ku., depending on the reception range. In the first case, the Menu is set to "Standard", in the second - "Universal".

TP number. This section displays the list of transponders. Using the buttons on the control panel, you can scan frequency and save all translated channels. Information about the required parameters can be found in the provider frequency table.

Diseqc.. This is a switch between the converters configured to the broadcast satellite. If the antenna works with one translator, you need to put a value in the menu Disable (Disabled). When an antenna is configured to multiple satellites, the connection port is specified in the row to the desired converter.

Positioner. This feature is responsible for automatic antenna setting to azimuth of another satellite. For this, the "plate" is activated by the built-in electric motor. If there is no corresponding key on the remote control, then the equipment does not support this function, so the menu is set to "disabled".

Polarization. This item can be left in automatic search mode. If you select the parameters of the vertical or horizontal setting, only the TV channels located in the specified plane will be translated.

Nutrition LNB.. The point is necessarily in the included position in order to feed on the converters.

The interface of the equipment of various providers may differ, so closely see the manufacturer's instructions for setting up equipment.

How to set up TV

This is the easiest step setting equipment. After connecting the antenna and debugging the receiver, the available TV channels are tested. Usually, programs are built in an arbitrary sequence depending on the frequency of broadcasting.

Taking advantage of the remote control you need to connect the channels in convenient odds.

Common bugs when connected

If after installing the equipment the image leaves much to be desired, it means that errors were made when setting up, which led to a deterioration in the quality of the signal reception. In most cases, users allow such miscalculations:

the insufficient diameter of the antenna mirror - leads to a loss of a signal in bad weather conditions;

errors when choosing the polarization of the converter - do not allow equipment to be tuned to the desired satellite;

lack of protective casing - at low temperatures, the irradiator will be covered by deposit;

connection through an inappropriate cable - there must necessarily have to be copper: the steel core significantly worsens the quality of reception;

embossed cable crimping in connecting places.

In addition, most users allow errors when connecting two or more TVs to a satellite "plate".

If you are not sure about your abilities, you should not perform an independent installation of equipment. At best, specialists caused to eliminate faults will require partial reimbursement of damage value, at worst - repair is fully fulfilled at the expense of the user.

Top 5 reliable satellite television providers in Russia

In addition to buying and installing equipment, one more important item remains - the choice of operator satellite TV. To date, there are quite a lot of companies in the country there are enough companies.
