STEP 1: BEFORE YOU START INSTALLATION
T
HE KEY TO SETTING UP YOUR
SYSTEM EASILY
– THIS IS
IMPORTANT
The key to setting up the system is in the accurate initial setting of the vertical elevation
of the dish. The vertical elevation is the amount of tilt upwards, from horizontal, toward
the sky, which is required to “see” the satellite. This is best achieved by mounting the
dish support mast so that the top portion, to which the dish clamps attach, is as “Plumb”
as possible. That is to say: the top portion of the mount should be as perpendicular to the
earth as you can manage - this is true for wall mounting, roof mounting, any kind of
mounting. If it is “Plumb“, then, when the dish is mounted on it and the dish is tilted
upward toward the satellite at the correct vertical elevation angle, the dish can be easily
panned (East/West movements) to find the satellite.
UNPACK AND CHECK CONTENTS
As you unpack the system, confirm that all the parts are included. See "Package
Contents" on page I-6 for a list of the included components.
Note: Keep the shipping materials in which these items are packed, in case you ever
need to return them.
Unpack the contents carefully. Electronic equipment can be easily damaged if bumped or
handled roughly. Examine all parts for damage that may have occurred during shipment.
If you find any damage, immediately call the location where your Bell ExpressVu system
was purchased, or the Bell ExpressVu Customer Service Call Centre at
1-888-SKY-DISH, before continuing with installation.
The size of your dish will vary depending on the part of Canada in which you live. The
standard diameter of a Bell ExpressVu dish is 51 cm, however, 60 cm, 90 cm or 1.2m
dishes are also available. If you require the large dish, we recommend that you hire a
professional to install it because installation of the 90 cm and 1.2 m dishes is a more
exacting project.
