ASL Peaking
SWiM Integrated LNB Peaking:
DO NOT CONNECT ANY IRD to the SWiM Integrated LNB BEFORE OR DURING THE PEAKING
PROCESS
1) Be sure the mast is plumb and the foot plate is secure to an approved
mounting surface.
2) Obtain the azimuth, elevation and tilt settings from the DIRECTV receiver.
3) Preset the antenna tilt and elevation to the settings obtained.
4) Apply power to the SWiM LNB using the power inserter as the diagram
outlines. (When power is applied, and before any receivers are connected,
the SWiM Integrated LNB will enter a diagnostic mode that is required for
the alignment procedure.)
5) Connect the Accutrac III meter LNB port to the 101 port of the ASL unit. Press
the power on/off button. Then select the 101 location by using the satellite select
button.
You will be viewing the KU bar for signal strength.
6) Adjust the antenna’s azimuth to obtain a signal lock and peak the signal level
on your bar graph.
7) Now adjust the elevation to obtain the peak signal level and a signal lock.
8) At this point, you should be ROUGHLY aligned to 101 West.
You can now follow the KaKu dithering process as outlined in the KaKu
Dithering procedures
Note: You will have to disconnect the cable from the 101° port on the ASL and connect to the
119° port on the ASL during the tilt adjustment step of the dithering process
