1.1 Safety instructions and warnings

Carefully read this user manual before using the device.

Scope of use

Your Travel Vision R6 ® has been developed to automatically search and find a satellite signal. This device is

only intended for use by consumers and outdoors

For safe use, please observe the following:

Tripod

When extending or folding up the tripod, be careful not to pinch your hands between the legs of the tripod.

Handling the dish unit

Use the hand grip on the back of the dish unit when picking up the system for positioning or storage.

LNB arm

When folding down the LNB arm, ensure that your fingers do not become pinched in the hinge.

During alignment

Make sure not come into physical contact with the dish unit while it is aligning and rotating. Only use the control

module and make sure nothing and nobody enters the turning circle of the system during its alignment.

Connecting the system

Always first fully connect the system before switching on the power supply. Otherwise you risk receiving a slight

electric shock.

Coaxial cable

Ensure that when unrolling the system’s coaxial cable, it is laid down as flat as possible and that it is covered so it

3.4 Electric connection of the Travel Vision R6 ®

The system is connected with 2 coaxial cables. The long coaxial cable is mounted between the antenna unit

located outside and the power inserter located inside. The power inserter is connected to your receiver by means

of the short coaxial cable (receiver is not included).

The Travel Vision R6 ® operates on 24 volt. The required 24 volt is supplied by the power inserter with 230V

power adapter.

By default, The Travel Vision R6 ® is suited for 1 receiver with unlimited channel reception from the chosen

satellite.

Connection procedure:

Firmly press the F-connector of the 15 mtr coaxial cable over the

connector located on the bottom of the dish unit, so that the rubber is

indented, and hand-tighten it.

Press the F-connector on the other end of the 15 mtr coaxial cable

over the connector of the power inserter (indicated with “Antenna

R6”), so that the rubber is indented, and hand-tighten it.

Connect the short coaxial cable between the connector of the power

inserter (indicated with “Receiver”) and the “Antenna In” connector of

your receiver, and hand -tighten both items.

Insert the power adapted jack plug (round plug) in the 24V port of the

power inserter (indicated with “Power-in 24V”) and insert the power

plug of the power adapter in a 230V wall outlet.

Switch on your satellite receiver to provide the LNB with power.

The system is now ready for use.

You will see a blinking ∞symbol on the right-hand side of the display that indicates the status of the GPS location.

As long as it is blinking, the system is searching for the GPS location. When the symbol is continuously displayed,

the system has determined its GPS location.

We recommend that you wait with the selection of the desired satellite until the system has determined the GPS

location. The time needed for the determination of the GPS location is approximately 1 minute (see also next

remark).

After determination of the correct GPS location, the system will be able to find the satellite more quickly. It also

provides for the opportunity to set the correct LNB to ensure position optimal reception.

The correct position of the LNB is shown on the display for each satellite, which may differ per selected satellite.

When the GPS location has not been found (yet), by default this position will be 0.

Remark:

In the case of a weak GPS signal, it might not be possible to determine the location, in which case the system can

be used as normal. However, finding the satellite will take longer and the optimal position of the LNB will not be

provided. If the GPS signal improves during satellite search, then the system will adjust automatically.

You can browse through the preprogrammed satellites step by step.

By means of the arrow buttons located on the control module (buttons

4 and 5), For each satellite, the correct LNB position is shown on the

display.

Select the desired satellite, read off the corresponding LNB position from the display, and bring the LNB into this

position by turning the LNB holder accordingly (see images below).

LNB in position 0

After you have correctly positioned the LNB, press the Start button (1) to begin searching for the satellite.
