Determine Satellite Dish Position

To determine the position of your satellite dish, follow these steps.

First, make sure that your satellite dish is facing the east. This is because the signal for satellite channels usually comes from that direction.

Next, ensure that the dish is installed correctly, following the instructions provided with the dish manual. Once the dish is securely mounted, connect the coaxial cable from the dish to the receiver, making sure it’s connected to the LNB input.

Power on the receiver and proceed with the digital box installation. Different decoders may have slightly different instructions, but generally, you’ll need to access the installation menu, select manual search, input the frequency (such as 12522), adjust the polarization, and start scanning for satellite channels.

Install the Satellite Dish

Now let’s move on to installing the satellite dish. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you with the TV installation process:

Steps	Instructions
1	Install the dish using the dish manual. Assemble the dish and fix the LNB in its holder.
2	Mount the stand on a wall, ensuring it is well fixed and facing the east direction.
3	Choose a location for the dish where there are no obstructions blocking the signal.
4	Partially tighten the dish to allow for adjustments. Turn the dish vertically and horizontally until the signal shoots or flashes.
5	Connect the coaxial cable from the dish to the receiver’s LNB input.
6	Power on the receiver.

Connect Dish to Receiver

To connect the dish to your receiver, you’ll need to follow these simple steps:

Connect the coaxial cable from your dish to the satellite receiver using the appropriate connectors.
Make sure to connect it to the LNB input on the receiver.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure that your satellite receiver is properly connected to the dish, allowing you to receive and enjoy the Multi TV channels.

It’s important to ensure a secure and proper connection to guarantee optimal signal reception and uninterrupted viewing experience.
