Product Description

Reliable and accurate, microprocessor controlled

Digital Satellite finder with backlit LCD display and sound

Compatible with:

DirecTV, Dish Network, and Free-to-Air satellite Systems

Input Frequency 950-2150 MHz

Input Level Min: -40 dB, Input Level Max: -10 dBOperating Range (LNB gain) 52~60dB.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

To avoid continuous full scale reading, do not use the digital satfinder directly in front of the dish.When using a LNB with gain higher than 60dB, insert a 5dB attenuator between the LNB/LNBF and the digital satfinder.

The SF-95DR digital satellite finder is microprocessor controlled, making it very reliable and accurate. Compatible with DirecTV, Dish Network, and Free-to-Air satellite Systems. Features an LCD display with optional backlight that displays signal strength graphically. An optional audible buzzer provides pitch tones for accuracy (the higher the tone, the better the signal). Features an LNB connecting port and receiver connecting port. Input Frequency 950-2150 MHz Input Level Min: -40 dB, Input Level Max: -10 dB. Operating Range (LNB gain) 52~60dB. Instruction manual and a 5 inch coaxial cable are included.

How to connect:

1. Connect a jumper cable from the LNB to the “Satellite” port on the digital satfinder.

2. Connect the cable from your satellite receiver to the “Receiver” port on the digital satfinder.

Operating instructions:

1. Switch the satellite receiver on and the digital satfinder will turn on by itself.

2. Set your dish to the proper azimuth and elevation settings (this information should be supplied with your satellite dish)

3. Adjust the dial on the side until the signal strength displays 0% (the critical point).

4. Peak the signal by slowly moving the azimuth and elevation of your dish. The higher the values, the better the signal. If the digital satfinder’s reading reaches full scale, you can adjust the “◄ATT” to reduce the incoming signal to a lower level. Continue to move the dish until you have the highest possible meter reading and the highest possible buzzer pitch.

5. Remove the jumper cable and digital satfinder, then reconnect the LNB/LNBF to your receiver.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

-To avoid continuous full scale reading, do not use the digital satfinder directly in front of the dish.

-When using a LNB with gain higher than 60dB, insert a 5dB attenuator between the LNB/LNBF and the digital satfinder.
