If it is red and the word "Unlocked" is displayed, you may be aiming at the satellites but without a strong enough signal for a pic- ture. If you are using the audio tone, the sound will be an intermittent beeping tone.

If it is green and the word "Locked" is displayed, you are aiming at the satellites and have a strong enough signal for a picture. Also, the audio tone will be steady. It rises as the signal gets stronger, and lowers as the signal strength drops.

Avoid positioning yourself directly in front of the satellite antenna while aiming it, as your body may block much or all of the satellite signal.

7.Loosen the mast clamp bolts just enough to be able to move the support bracket. Slowly move the dish from side to side until you find the strongest signal. Tighten the mast clamp bolts just enough so the dish cannot be moved horizontally.
