The peaking process involves: 

1  Setting DVB Carrier 

2  Sweeping the Azimuth and Elevation 

3  Confirming DVB Lock 

 
To peak the antenna, complete the following steps: 

1  Choose a DVB-S carrier. To select the carrier, click on a carrier in the list shown 

on Figure 55 below the Spectrum Analyzer graph.  

Note: Keep monitoring the Spectrum Analyzer graph which will display the 
greatest peak when the antenna has been peaked.  

 
2  Reset the frequency span to 10 MHz (if the frequency span is currently set at a 

level higher than 10 MHz). The reading on the signal level indicator in the 
Antenna Peaking box (Figure 55) should be green. 

Hint: If the signal strength indicator is red it cannot be used for peaking, reset your 
frequency span until it turns green. 

 

3  Click on the Azimuth button in the Motor Control box and use the nudge 

left/right arrows (refer to the previous Acquisition Process section for control 
button functions) to adjust the Azimuth such that the reading on the signal level 
indicator is the highest that can be achieved (value will vary depending upon the 
satellite). Click Peak in the Motor Control box and wait for the button to turn 
green and read “Peaked”. 

 

4  Similarly, click on Elevation button in the Motor Control box to activate this 

control. Use the nudge up/down arrows to adjust Elevation such that the reading 
on the signal level indicator reaches the highest number that can be achieved. 
Click Peak and wait for the button to turn green and read “Peaked”.
