Airtel Digital TV Dish Realignment to New Satellite SES7

Airtel Digital TV has launched all its channels on new satellite SES7 at 108.3°E. In a few days, all Airtel DTH users have to realign their dish to SES7 from currently INSAT-4CR. Below are some steps and images on how to do this.

First of all, the setting on currently INSAT-4CR.

Here is the LNB position on INSAT: 

This is 'Angel' setting on INSAT, it is on number 65 on the dish scale

To get the difference, we make a mark/label on the back side with name INSAT-4CR

Now we are ready to change the dish direction from INSAT to SES7

Change the LNB postion as below image

Down the dish from 65 to 47 i.e.  65>60>55>50 > 47, four lines on scale

Turn the dish to East direction or DishTV/BigTV dish direction. The marks will be approx 15mm distant now.

Now your dish is on SES7 satellite. Choose the best SES7 Transponder suited for your region, on your TV and check for Signal Strength. Adjust the dish a little bit for the 'Strong Signal'.

Now your STB get channels with no any error displayed and you can check it on system Diagnostics.
