Abstract

"MéTODO E DISPOSITIVO PARA ORIENTAçãO IDEAL DE UM DISCO OU ANTENA DE SATéLITE". Método e dispositivo para orientação ideal de um disco ou antena de satélite em um sistema de televisão via satélite para recepção de sinais a partir de mais de um satélite. O sistema de televisão via satélite compreende um disco ou antena de satélite, uma pluralidade de conversores em bloco de baixo ruído (LNB), um receptor e uma televisão. o dispositivo gera uma mostra ou apresentação em tela, apresentando uma mostra de força de sinal para mais de um satélite. Em operação, um usuário executa um software de sintonia de disco ou antena no receptor de satélite e este receptor apresenta uma interface gráfica na tela da televisão. A interface compreende uma pluralidade de botões de rádio, um para cada satélite. Adicionalmente, em uma modalidade alternativa da invenção, um terceiro botão de rádio é provido para facilitar um processo de sintonia fina."METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE IDEAL ORIENTATION OF A DISC OR SATELLITE ANTENNA". Method and device for optimal orientation of a disk or satellite antenna in a satellite television system for receiving signals from more than one satellite. The satellite television system comprises a satellite disk or antenna, a plurality of low-noise block (LNB) converters, a receiver and a television. the device generates a display or screen presentation, showing a signal strength display for more than one satellite. In operation, a user runs disc or antenna tuning software on the satellite receiver and this receiver features a graphical interface on the television screen. The interface comprises a plurality of radio buttons, one for each satellite. In addition, in an alternative embodiment of the invention, a third radio button is provided to facilitate a fine tuning process.
