[. . . ] Once achieved, drill the other 3 holes while the mount foot is still properly in place. (Alternatively, you can mark the holes, remove the mount, then drill). Attach the mount with the 4 fasteners; seal the holes with silicone to prevent water damage to your dwelling. Place your level on the front face of the top section of the mast and adjust the pipe to be vertically level by pivoting around the base bracket. If you have trouble fastening the mount to a surface, try mounting a solid piece of wood to your dwellingÕs surface first, then fastening the mount to the wood. STEP 3. 2C: INSTALLING THE DISH ON THE MOUNT (60 CM DISH) You have installed the mount on your dwelling and you have pre-assembled the antenna unit, ready to be installed on the mount. Lightly tighten the two nuts on the back of the mast clamp, so that the antenna can pivot in the East/West directions but not be loose. You are ready to carry out the antenna alignments, as soon as the wiring in Step 3. 2D is completed. STEP 3. 2D: CONNECTING THINGS TOGETHER (60 CM DISH) The wiring is accomplished as follows: 1. Thread a length of coaxial cable through the dish as shown in diagram 2. To do this, insert the end of the cable with the screw connector into the smaller end of the boot and work it through. When you are finished the boot should slide freely over the cable but hold snugly when slipped up over the the screw connector. (If possible, place weather boot on cable before putting on ÒFÓ connector). Page 1-26 Installation and Setup Assembling the 90cm Dish 3. Slide the weather boot up securely to cover the cable/LNBF connection at the base of the LNBF. Slip the LNBF onto the end of the arm, until contact is made with the LNBF bracket stops and put in screw through arm and LNBF. Route and fasten the cable in a neat, unobtrusive manner in such a way so it cannot be damaged by accident. Connect the opposite end of the cable to your receiver, to the connector marked ÒSatellite InÓ. Proceed to page 1-35 Installing the Receiver. STEP 3. 3: ASSEMBLING THE 90 CM DISH STEP 3. 3A: PRE-ASSEMBLE THE PARTS (90 CM DISH) ItÕs best to pre-assemble the dish indoors, so that it is all ready to place on the mast outdoors, quickly and easily . . . especially if itÕs cold out. DISH The complete system consists of three main parts: the dish mount, the dish assembly, and the receiver. The mount consists of the foot (base plate) and a bent pipe called the mast. The dish assembly consists of the antenna, or dish, the dish support bracket, the (LNBF) low noise amplifier, and the LNBF support arm. The receiver is also fully assembled. LNBF LNBF ARM MOUNT MAST Pre-assemble the Dish as follows: 1. Assemble the dish as indicated in the instructions which are included in the antenna box. Page 1-27 Installation Guide 2. Determine your specific vertical elevation from the Table (page 1-44) and adjust the angular tilt of the antenna so that the centre of the top bolt on the Mast Head Clamp lines up with your vertical elevation position on the Mast Head elevation gauge. [. . . ] ¥ You want to optimize your system to carry the best picture and sound quality that it can support. ¥ You want to be able to order Bell ExpressVu PPV programs using the Bell ExpressVu receiver. The wiring setups presented here range from easiest (RF or VHF connections only), with the fewest electronic components, to the most advanced, with multiple electronic components. You should use only one type of audio and one type of video connection. [. . . ]
