 Select location for Reflector Installation with clear view of Satellite (Line Of Sight)  There should not be any partial / future obstruction in LOS like- Tree branches, Sheds, Growing Tree, Under Construction Building etc. Step 1

Satellite Subscriber Obstruction in LOS Satellite Subscriber Clear LOS Step 1

Pre-cautions  Reflector Installation Location : - Should be minimum 5 Meters away from Bare Electrical Lines ( Overhead / Side ) Should be easily accessible for Maintenance / Service Should not be accessible by Children / Pet Animals Should be such that Rain / Water Drainage from Roof never hit the Reflector Should not be in the Passage Should not be in Damp Area Always Prefer wall Mount option for Reflector Assembly Never Install Reflector Assembly on Water Tank or wall of the Water Tank Step 1

Also Consider below mentioned points during Site Selection (continued….) Minimum 15 cm Distance should be maintained between corner edge of the wall & hole to be drilled Thickness of the Wall should be more than1.5 times of Fastener Length Reflector should never be Installed directly on the Roof In case of Floor Mounting Reflector Should be installed on the Flat concrete base of below mentioned Specification 50 cm 30 cm Flat Surface

Also Consider below mentioned points during Site Selection (continued….) Step 1 Check for conceal electric cables with Line Detector Minimum 7 cm distance should be maintained between Electric Cable & Hole to be drilled Ensure that Water Line, Gas Pipe, Other Cables / Customer Property does not damage while drilling

Step 1 Cable Length should be minimum from Reflector to STB Cable Should be routed with minimum number of drill holes Location selected for STB should have proper air circulation Select two most suitable locations for Reflector Installation Take Customer Permission for Reflector Installation at best suitable location Cable Length should be minimum Reflector STB

Always prefer Wall Mount as a Mounting option For Wall mount “Indicated hole” on Foot Mount should be towards ground as shown above For Floor mount MAST top portion should be in opposite direction of the “Indicated hole” on Foot Mount Wall Mount Mast Top portion direction towards SKY Indicated Hole on Foot Mount direction towards GROUND Floor Mount Indicated hole should be in opposite direction of MAST Top portion Mast Top portion direction towards SKY Step 2

Align Foot Mount at 90 Degree After Alignment of Foot Mount, Mark 4 holes for drilling Align Foot Mount at 90 degree with respect to ground by using Spirit level meter Bubble in Center Foot Mount Spirit Level Mark holes for Drilling Foot Mount should be installed on Flat ( Plane ) surface during Floor Mounting. Step 3

Step 4 Self Lockable Chuck Speed variation switch Take Customer permission before drilling Clean Drill machine & Drill bits Set Drilling mode according to Wall Check Drill bit size according to Bolt diameter Drill Machine should be in “OFF” mode while selecting mode, inserting Drill bit or adjusting Guide Rod. Always wear Safety goggle while drilling & blowing dust from hole

Step 4 Hold the drill machine with both hands while drilling Put forwards the left leg ( for a Right handed Person ) with the right index finger on Speed Control Switch, Hold the handle with Left Hand – vice versa for Left Handed person Hold the Drill Machine Horizontally & Drill hole perpendicular to the Wall Slowly increase the speed by speed control switch Safety Precautions : - Don’t let drill stop while the bit is still inside the hole (If the drill is stuck in the hole, reverse the direction of rotation & slowly pull out the drill bit) Don’t change the rotation direction with the switch while the drill machine is ON Don’t lean on Drill Machine while drilling Use Drill Machine with Safety Precautions to avoid injury

Step 4 Drill the hole diagonally & Re-check Foot Mount at 90 o before drilling second hole.  Blow the dust from drilled holes  Do not breathe while blowing dust. Dust Blower Ensure the Drill Machine is Switched “OFF” immediately after drilling of holes

Step 5 Fix Plastic Bush inside the hole Plastic Bushes Always use Plastic Bush recommended by Company

Step 5  Tighten Bolts diagonally Check Foot Mount 90 o with respect to ground

Step 6 Nuts & Bolts A B C

Step 7  Keep these bolts slightly loose for Final Elevation alignment Antenna Bracket + MAST Bracket

Step 8  Always tighten Bolts diagonally  Reflector surface should not deform or damage while handling Reflector Nuts & Bolts

Step 9 LNBF + LNBF Clamp Keep these bolts slightly loose for Final SKEW alignment

Step 10

Take extreme care while working with LNBF Arm, It should not be Damaged / De-formed

Step 11 Adjust approximate SKEW as per division marking available on LNBF Clock wise rotation for negative polarisation angle Rotate LNBF clock wise from LNBF connector for negative (-) Polarisation angle. Rotate LNBF Anti clock wise from LNBF connector for Positive (+) Polarisation angle. For example : If SKEW angel is “- 23 degree” 1 Division = 5 Degree Division marking for LNBF rotation = 23 / 5 = 4.6 Align “0” mark of LNBF clamp with approx. 4.6 division (Clockwise) on LNBF.

Step 12 Assemble Reflector Assembly on Mount Assembly

Step 12 Aligning ElevationAligning Azimuth The vertical movement of Reflector to track the satellite is called Elevation Adjustment. ElevationAzimuth The horizontal movement of Reflector to track the satellite is called Azimuth Adjustment.

Step 13 Sat Meter should be switched “OFF” before connecting First connect service cable with LNBF After that Connect other end of service cable with Sat Meter Connecting Service Cable with LNBF Connecting with Sat Meter

Step 14 1-Connect a test cable from LNBF to the hand held signal level meter. 2-Swith on the meter confirm that audio is enabled. 3.Select the desired satellite on the menu i.e. any of tps of SUN DIRECT TV 5. Approximately try to adjust the azimuth & elevation of the antenna towards the direction of the desired satellite, in our case INSAT4B at 93.5degs. 4. A long beep will be heard

Step 14 To counteract Rain fade/ adverse weather condition, Tracking should be done in such a way to achieve below mentioned parameters for all the Transponders.  MER : More than 12 dB  Signal Strength : More than 77dBuV All the Nut, Bolt & Screws should be properly tightened ( Neither Loose nor Over tightened ) after Peak Tracking. The signal Parameters should not change during tightening of Nut, Bolt & Screws

Step 14 After Peak Tracking, Switch “OFF” Sat Meter, remove Service Cable & keep Sat Meter at safe place After tightening all Nut, Bolt & screws mark the Azimuth & Elevation Adjustment with Permanent marker

Step 15 Tighten all bolts & nuts Remove the service cable from LNBF connect the decoder cable - Remember to leave one loop service cable for maintenance. Now the ODU installation is complete Use Cable tie
