If you use a
professional installer technician, please print this
page and provide it to the installer/technician when
he arrives to install your system. |
Although the installation of a WS International/
Satellite System may be easy for some, it's always recommended
that you hire a professional installer to ensure proper
installation and grounding. If you require a local installer,
you may visit
www.mylocalinstaller.com, or
you can contact us by
email, fax, or phone, and we
will be glad to provide you with a list of local installers and
technicians who may be qualified to install your system. Please
note, that installation fees may vary between $75.00-$175.00
made payable directly to the installer/technician.
Most experienced installers/technicians who are
qualified for this type of install, will be able to tell you as
soon as you tell them the type of system you have.

Your WS
International/ Satellite Receiver
Your new WS
International/ satellite receiver is pre-programmed to view all
WS International/ satellite channels broadcasting off of the 2
satellites above. Since your receiver is pre-programmed for WS
International/, the receiver remains locked with a password.
Please DO NOT try to enter or change any of the settings inside
the receiver. Changing or modifying any information inside the
receiver will result in undesired operation, and is NOT covered
under warranty. If you modify or change any settings inside of
your satellite receiver, you may be required to send your
receiver back and have it reprogrammed. A $25.00 reprogramming
fee + shipping and handling fee will be charged.
PLEASE DO NOT DO A FACTORY DEFAULT
ON YOUR SATELLITE RECEIVER. DOING SO WILL ERASE ALL PROGRAMMING
AND WILL CAUSE YOU TO HAVE TO SEND THE RECEIVER BACK TO GET
RE-PROGRAMMED AT THE RATE OF $25.00 PLUS S&H BACK TO YOU.
Your
WS International/ Satellite Dish
Your new
satellite dish is 76cm in diameter. Please make sure there are
no big dings or dents in the satellite dish caused by shipping.
Large dings and dents may cause your satellite dish antenna not
to receive proper signal. Please make sure to follow
instructions in this packet for proper mounting and positioning
of your satellite dish antenna.
Your WS
International/ Satellite LNBF
Your Tracker
LNBF is one of the best LNBF’s in the satellite industry. It is
high gain with a low noise figure of 0.3dB for maximum signal
reception and works great in fringe areas.
Satellite
Antenna Installation Tips
Choosing the Site for WS
International/ Dish Installation
 The
first thing you need to do is choose the installation site.
The area must have a clear "line of sight" to the satellite.
This means there can be no obstruction between the dish and
the satellite. This includes building, tree branches,
mountain, etc. In order to receive a good signal, select an
outdoor site with a clear, unobstructed view of the South,
Southeast, or Southwest, depending on your location. In
most cases, eastern United States will need a clear line of
site of southwestern sky. Central United States needs a
clear line of site of the southern sky, and the west coast
will need a clear line of site towards the south eastern
sky. If you install the dish in the winter, leaves that are
normally on the branches may not be present. A problem with
reception may occur when the leaves grow back in the spring
and summer. If there is no area on your house that has a
clear view of the satellite, then you may have to purchase a
pipe from your local hardware store, and secure the pipe in
the ground (a little bag of cement would ensure the security
of the pipe), in your yard. Then mount the dish on that
pipe. Make sure that the pipe has the same outside diameter
as the pipe provided with the dish.
At
this point you should have mounted the Mount Foot to its desired
location. Next, Attach the Mount Pipe to the Mount Foot. Insert
the Stand Pipe between the two ears of the Mount Bracket. It is
best to use a level to make sure that the Pipe is exactly
vertical to the ground. Ensure that both the pivot bolt and the
adjustment bolt are in place. This will make it easy to dial in
the satellite. Now, place the assembled dish with Feed Support
and LNB onto the pipe.
Setting up your WS
International/ Satellite Receiver
Now
that you have mounted your satellite dish, it’s time to setup
your receiver before you start aligning your satellite dish.
Bring a small TV out by your satellite dish along with your
satellite receiver. Make sure you hook up all the wires
before turning on the receiver. Turning on your
receiver first, then connecting wires, may cause your LNBF or
receiver to burn out. Since your receiver is already
pre-programmed based on the criteria when you placed your order,
setting it up will
be
very simple. Simply tune your receiver to channel number 1.
Then press the OK button on your receiver. This will bring up a
channel list along with 2 bars on the top left hand side of your
receiver. Top bar is a level bar, and the bottom bar is your
quality bar. More than likely, you will have about 50% on your
level bar and 0% on your quality bar. This is normal. In fact,
you don’t have to pay attention to your level bar at all.

Final
adjustment to your satellite dish
You have 3
settings on your satellite dish. 1) Elevation,
which measures up and down, can be adjusted from
the back of your dish. 2) Azimuth, which is
adjusting your dish from left to right or right
to left (East to West or West to East). 3)
Polarization which is adjusted by your LNBF.
Standing in front of your satellite dish,
looking at the dish, if you are in the west
coast, the bottom of the LNBF where the
connector is must be positioned between 6 &7
O’clock. If you are in central USA, it should
be strait down, and if you are in the East
Coast, it should be rotated so that the
connector is between 5 & 6 O’ clock.
Use the calculator below to
figure our what direction you have to adjust to
using your compass for your area.
