Position of radio and television broadcast satellites
All the satellites are positioned in an equatorial orbit at a distance of about 36,000 km from Earth. Each
one is located in a fixed position that is accurately defined by its orbit, indicated in degrees with respect
to the Greenwich meridian.
Satellite transmission power (Footprint)
Since satellites are powered exclusively by their solar panels, they have only very limited power with which
to beam their signal to Earth. This requires all their transmission energy to be concentrated over very
limited areas – referred to as Footprints – of the planet. This allows the transmitted signals to be received
by relatively compact satellite dishes. Signal transmission power can be likened to the light emitted by a
car headlight: stronger in the centre of the beam and gradually weaker towards its edges.
This signal weakening effect towards the EAST – WEST outer edges can be corrected by rotating the LNB
ANTICLOCKWISE or CLOCKWISE to compensate for the signal loss caused by the CURVATURE of the
Earth.
SKEW
Automatic Satellite Tracking system with ultra-precise adjustment of the optimal LNB
reception angle thanks to the built-in GPS module.
The FlatSat Skew systems are perfect for all those motorhome owners whose travels take them from
the far eastern end of the Mediterranean area (Turkey) to the far western end (Morocco) and no
longer want to worry about having to adjust the position of the LNB on their antennas every time
they move into a new zone. While, in fact, reception at the centre of the Footprint is optimal with
the LNB positioned horizontally, at the South Eastern and South Western extremities of the
Mediterranean area it is necessary to climb up on the motorhome roof and rotate the LNB
ANTICLOCKWISE or CLOCKWISE to obtain the strongest signal. With FlatSat Skew systems, instead,
this task is no longer necessary because every time the dish is pointed at a satellite the Skew
mechanism automatically obtains the exact position of the vehicle from the built-in GPS module
and therefore rotates the LNB into the MAXIMUM signal strength reception position.

FLATSAT SKEW ELEGANCE SMART
consists of:
1 External Satellite Antenna
1 DVB-S2 Control Unit complete with leads
1 TV mod. TY2 with built-in Satellite
Receiver equipped with Remote Control.
Automatic SKEW Satellite
Antenna with TV
All you need to do is switch on your TELECO
TY2 television by pressing the dedicated AUTO
key on the remote control.
The FlatSat Skew Elegance SMART ( patent
pending ) will handle all the rest: it starts the
antenna, rotates the LNB into the maximum
signal strength position, searches for the
satellite transmitting the selected programme,
tracks the antenna towards it and sends the
images straight to your screen.
All in just a few seconds.
It can be operated at any time via your
Remote Control.
If you decide to change channel, the FlatSat
Skew Elegance SMART immediately checks
which satellite this programme is being
transmitted by and automatically tracks the
antenna so it is pointing at the right satellite
while optimising the LNB position.
If you switch off the TV by pressing the AUTO
key, the antenna is automatically lowered and
the system is shut down.
To make your life even simpler, the TV comes
with a pre-saved list of your country’s
favourite programmes: the list can, of course,
be modified as you please.
All the most important satellites are stored in
the memory: Astra 19, Hot Bird, Astra 23,
Eutelsat 5W, Astra 4, Astra 28, Thor, Hispasat,
Turksat, Internet.
An ever-alert safety system closes the antenna
and switches off the TV immediately
whenever the vehicle engine is started.
Each individual stage of Satellite Tracking
and Antenna Closure is displayed on the TV
screen.
In addition to the remote control provided
together with the TV a simplified remote
control with just 8 large keys (optional) is
also available. This can be used to perform
most of the functions provided by the TV
remote control.
