Knowing the Satellite Types / Satellite Technology

in #technology7 years ago

when we do the satellite tracking process, we usually use the receiver to search for satellites. but actually already in the prepared tools so that we no longer need to install the receiver and TV on the roof for tracking process.basically this tool has two jacks for F Connector, the first to connect with the LNB, while the second to be connected with the receiver and 12 Volt power supply for power.

The satellite finder belongs to an analog type satelite (using a needle as meter and number meter) which is used to measure the value of satellite signal received by a parabolic antenna. If the received signal value is larger, the aggregation / value will be larger or it will output the alarm sounds as a signal that the satellite is locked.

The advantages of this type of satelite finder is to have a rotary button that is used to measure the sensitivity of the sensor. On the sensor in pairs is very sensitive to be able to easily detect the signal. After the signal is found, then the sensitivity of the sensor is reduced slowly to fine-tune (detail tuning).

The lack of this type of satelite finder is that it can only detect the signal regardless of which satelite the signal is coming from, how many transponders are. So if there are two satellites with the location of the adjacent location, sometimes this tool issued an incorrect satellite alarm alarm.

The satellite finder of this type is the same as the type of satellite finder above, only that the analog version and this is the digital version.

The satelite finder of this type is more sophisticated than satelite finder number 1 and 2. we just enter the satelite signal which will be in search.dan this tool will sound the alarm if the satelite signal in the intention is found and will lock the signal automatically.
