Operation of SC52 Automatic Satellite Dish
Turn ON the Master/Reset switch that is located on the side of the Data Box. When
first turned on the dish will respond with a short self-test. The dish will raise several
cm’s then retract and “CLOSING” will appear on the screen. This will time out quickly
and “POWER OFF” will appear on the screen.
This antenna is now ready for operation, the Master Reset switch can be left on
continually. Should the motorhome or caravan suffer from low house battery voltage
or an electrical
“event” occurs that affects the dish operation, simply turn the reset
button off then on again. This will reset the dish software.
To operate the antenna press the On/Off button on the display once and the display
will boot up and the second press will start the dish. The word OPENING will show.
Once the dish is fully open and begins to rotate SEARCHING will appear on the display
along with the preset search satellite and also the signal strength.
The dish will locate the satellite and the display will change to TRACKING. At this
point the dish will fine tune itself incrementally to receive maximum signal gain. Once
this is achieved the display will read SIGNAL LOCKED and signal display will show a
reading of between 48
– 52 (this will vary due to location and atmospheric conditions).
This acquisition time will take between 45
– 55 seconds, however may vary according
to location.
The LED next to the ON/OFF button on the display will appear red during all functions
and will turn to green when the dish is locked on the satellite.
After 90 seconds the display will time out. To bring the display on press the ON/OFF
button. Then press the button a second time for the desired operation.
