SKEW OPTION

|
For optimal
reception at the limits of the reception ranges
in South-Western and South-Eastern regions, the
LNB may have to be rotated in order to
compensate the polarisation deviation - or SKEW
angle - caused by the earth’s curvature. The
SKEW option provides a fully automatic
adjustment of the LNB in order to obtain
maximum reception range. The Oyster® system
automatically detects the direction into which
the LNB must be rotated and performs the
adjustment by means of an electric
motor. |
The Oyster Digital CI has a height of 22cms when fitted.

The manufacturer also provide the following footprint map
for this unit.
