Director Satellite dish

director TV satellite, in azimuth, can be pretty difficult. Before you can find it with a compass you have to do some calculations using GPS location, magnetic variation, compass azimuth and satellite azimuth.
Satellite Director replaces all of that. See tips to success below.

Get maximum signal from your satellite dish. With help and satellite Finder - simple but really powerful sat finder tool - it would be piece of cake.

Sat Finder requires box with software, connected to LAN and with WebInterface enabled.
Just let the Gps navigation inside your phone or enter your Gps navigation location, choose the preferred TV satellite and point your phone towards the sky to focus on (find) the television satellite. You've found the satellite once the whitened ball is incorporated in the whitened circle and also the cyan ball is incorporated in the cyan circle. Align, in azimuth, the offset arm from the satellite dish towards the cyan arrow around the phones display and also the satellite dish is aligned in azimuth using the satellite.

Unfortunatly you have to calibrate the compass before using it.
Metal covers/cases or covers/cases with metal/magnetic closure will influence/disrupt the compass of your phone or tablet. Do not use these covers !! The compass of your phone can also get inaccurate because it is affected by other electro - magnetic fields or because it is weakened by age. Calibrating the compass may not help anymore.

How does it work ?
Just enable the GPS in your phone or enter your GPS location, select the desired TV satellite and point your phone to the sky to target (find) the TV satellite. You have found the satellite when the white ball is in the white circle and the cyan ball is in the cyan circle. Align, in azimuth, the offset arm of the satellite dish to the cyan arrow on the phones display and the satellite dish is aligned in azimuth with the satellite.
Selectable audio tone, camera preview, continuous mode (no pause), color pickers or a user defined satellite position may make it easier for you to find the desired TV satellite. The satellite list contains 280 satellites.
Optional you can take a photo (resized)/screenshot by touching on the director tab. The photo/screenshot is ONLY stored on the phones memory card.
Optional: you can get an indication when you are to close to iron (dish/pole) in the form of an green/yellow/red bar.
