Positioner V-box


This means you can use it with all motors that support the DiSEqC 1.2 system and that are connected only by one coaxial cable. This positioner support ordinary motors since it also has connectors for a reed sensor and for a motor.
On the front the receiver has a three parted LCD display that displays all important information, position numbers and impulse numbers when the antenna moves. On the right somewhat bellow the upper part there are three buttons to control it without a remote control.
One button turns it on and off and the other two turn the antenna to the left and to the right.
On the back there are four spring-clip connectors to cennect a motor, a sensor and grounding. There are also two IF connectors for the connection of a DiSEqC positioner

connect the LNB with a coaxial cable to the positioner and the positioner to the receiver. Afterwards connect the positioner with a four-wired cable to the motor. This way all controlling is done by the receiver and the movements are fully automatic. This means if you change the program on your receiver to a program on another satellite the receiver will send the necessary signals to the positioner so that he’ll change the position.
Memorizing the positions depends on the receiver, but it’s basically always the same procedure. Move the antenna manual till you get a clear picture and memorize the position. You have to repeat this for each and every position.
