13 Trouble Shooting There are a number of common issues that can affect the signal reception quality or the operation of the. The following sections address these issues and potential solutions. Blown Fuse, Low Power, or Wiring If the antenna unit is installed but entirely non-responsive, there are three key factors to check as part of the troubleshooting process: 1. Blown Fuse With the system powered on, move the antenna reflector slowly by hand. If the reflector does not move freely, a fuse is not the problem. If the reflector does move freely, one of the two fuses mounted on the CPU Board may have blown or been broken. The Technical Manual provides detailed instructions for authorized service personnel who may be required to replace a fuse. Contact your local CAMOS dealer or service center for assistance. 2. Low Power If the power cable to the antenna unit is more than 50ft(15 m), the power levels can decrease over the course of the cable, resulting in a voltage or current level at the antenna unit that is too low to power the system properly. The Technical Manual provides detailed instructions for supplying adequate power to the antenna unit. Contact your local CAMOS dealer or service center for assistance. 3. Wiring If the system has been improperly wired, it will not operate correctly. The Technical Manual provides detailed instructions for authorized service personnel who may be required to check the wiring. Contact your local CAMOS dealer or service center for assistance. 4. Satellite Signal Blocked Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels, or equipment on the vessel itself. Simply moving the vessel or obstruction will clear the signal. 5. Satellite Coverage Issue will provide outstanding reception within the 18 (46 cm) antenna coverage area for your satellite television service of choice. However, reception can be degraded as you approach the fringe coverage areas. Refer to your satellite television service manual to check the viable coverage area for a18 (46 cm) antenna. 6. Radar Interference The energy levels radiated by radar units can overload the antenna s front-end circuits. Check with your installer to make certain that the antenna unit is in the optimal location with regard to your radar unit. 7. Satellite Frequency Data Changed If some channels work while one or more other channels do not, or if the antenna is unable to find the satellite, the selected satellite s frequency data may have changed. This frequency data can be updated via the maintenance port. Contact your local CAMOS dealer or service center for assistance. 8. Incorrect or Loose RF Connectors A loose RF connector can reduce the quality of the satellite signal. Also, if you cannot switch satellites using your IRD remote, your IRD may be connected to the wrong antenna base plate connector. The Technical Manual provides instructions for authorized service personnel who may need to check the RF connections. Contact your local CAMOS dealer or service center for assistance. 013

14 Loss of Signal / Rain Fade * The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusually heavy rainfall. An optimally aligned antenna, along with the shortest possible cable run, minimizes the chances of rain fade. * Make sure the antenna is mounted securely to prevent it from being blown out of alignment in a heavy wind. * Heavy snow accumulation on the antenna may reduce the satellite signal strength; snow should be swept away as soon as possible. * Tree foliage growth into antenna s line-of-sight to the satellite may result in gradual loss of picture. A tip for the horn assembling Add the rubber ring when you are assembling the horn into the dish for its water protection. A condition of weather gets an effect to the signal quality. 014

15 References for the angles (Skew, Elevation & Azimuth) * Series will detact the angles automatically. Refer this page just as your reference to get your satellite. Cross Polarization (Skew Angle) : Tilt your antenna to the specified degree by looking to the degree graduation located on the back of the antenna bracket. To obtain the skew angle of chosen satellite, please refer to or end of this manual Elevation Angle : Then obtain the Elevation angle according to the area location of the chosen satellite at Azimuth : All of the European satellites are located to the south, there will be a minor difference in the azimuth angle from one satellite to another. Skew Angle Graduation (+)Degree 0 (-)Degree (Example of pointing & finding the signal) In order to watch Canal + through ASTRA1 (19.2 East) from the city Brest of France, you will see Skew angle at -19.7, Elevation angle at 30, and Azimuth angle at Satellite Position Azimuth N ASTRA East Almost EU Satellites are placed in the sky of south.
