WARNING
Double check all electrical and coax connections from the controller to
the mount and LNB's BEFORE applying power to or connecting the
satellite receiver to the controller.
Note: The control cable has 12 wires that control motors, provides GPS information and
sensor feedback. If a control cable connector is miss wired it can cause damage to GPS or
sensors. This can result in component failure and cause many hours of unnecessary
troubleshooting time which costs everyone time and money. A double check of all wiring
before powering up will result in a smoother installation.
REMEMBER
90% of all problems are a result of incorrect CONNECTIVITY or CONFIGURATION.
Mount Installation Warning
Your Eagle mount utilizes a GPS system for acquisition. Calculations for skew and elevation are
based on a level surface (+or- 3 Degrees, Right, Left, Forward and Back). Failure to level the mount
to these specifications during installation can equate to poor performance. To determine if your
mount is in compliance to these criteria, you can use the following formula. Tools required...
1. A level
2. A tape measure
Formula = + or - 3 degrees is approximately 5/8" for every 12" from center of mount.
How to measure.... using a level, lay it onto the base of the mount. Bring the bubble of the level to center and at
12" from the center of the mount measure the distance from the bottom of the level to the roof top. If the distance
12" out from center of the mount is less than 5/8” or less than 1 1/4" at 24" out, then you are within tolerance.
How to adjust the mount.... if leveling of the mount is required, use flat washers to "shim" the low side of the
mount to bring it into tolerance. It does not have to be exact, just shim to bring the mount into specs. It may be
necessary to lengthen the screws to accommodate a larger adjustment.
