3 Proper Use
3.1 Proper use (use for the intended purpose)
The MobiSet 4 CAP 920 is designed to receive digital TV and radio programs via satellite. The automatic
positioner is intended to be used as a turntable for the Kathrein satellite dish.
The turntable can be used to receive digital TV and radio signals in the frequency range from 10.70 to 12.75
GHz; the antenna cannot receive terrestrial signals (e.g. DVB-T).
The turntable can only be operated in conjunction with the UFS 946/CI+ (or UFS 740 and UFS 940)
DVB-S receiver.
In conjunction with this receiver, the turntable provides fully automatic alignment of the satellite dish to
receive digital satellite signals. The turntable is designed for use on stationary caravans or motor homes.

Thepeakcurrentconsumptionisuptoamaximumof12A.
To ensure reliable functioning of the connection / control unit, the power supply cable must be connected
directly to the battery. If the supply voltage is too low, the UFS 946/CI+ receiver indicates this with the on-
screenmessage“On-boardvoltagetoolow”onthetelevisionscreen.
A 15 A fuse is incorporated in the power supply cable. If the fuse blows, rectify the source of the fault and
replace the blown fuse with a fuse of the same rating (15 A).
Warning
Neverremoveorbypassthefuseinthecable–cablerehazard!
Connecting the power supply cable lead marked "Ignition" activates the turntable function for automatic low-
ering of the antenna. This lowering takes place as soon as the vehicle ignition circuit is turned on. When con-
nectingthecontrolunittothevehiclepowersupply,makesurethatthe“12V”,“Earth”and“Ignition”wires

5.3 Selecting the Installation Location
Essentially, the cable lengths of the MobiSet 4 CAP 920 components allow you a free choice of installation
location on your caravan or motor home.
However, you should take note of the following points:
Beforeinstallation,youshouldndoutwhethertheoperatingmanualforyourvehiclepermitsthetting
ofnon-vehicle-specicpartsorwhatrequirementsneedtobemetinordertodoso.
For direct satellite reception, there should be no obstructions between the antenna and the satellite.
Therefore,makesurethattheantennaisnotshadowedbyroofextensionssuchasluggageracks,air
conditioning units, solar panels, etc. The problem of shadowing applies also to the selection of the park-
ing place for your vehicle. For interference-free satellite reception, the antenna needs a projected free
view to the South at an angle of between 15° and 55° (depending on location) to the horizontal.
When selecting the installation position, take into account the range of movement of the turntable (see
the grey shaded area in the graphics). Within this grey area there must be no structures on the roof
that would obstruct this movement (risk of collision). For safety, keep at least the required area of
1024x1250mmfree(foreaseofinstallationandanysubsequentdismantling).
Turntable movement range with
antenna, viewed from above onto
the vehicle roof.
Roof attachments may
be mounted within the
hatched area.
The safety clearances should be
maintained from the roof attach-
ments (e.g. due to a build-up of ice)
Direction of travel
Chooseamountingpositionontheroofthatisasataspossible,dependingonthelocationofthevehi-
cle, since roof inclinations greater than 5° may lead to problems when searching for the satellite.
To ensure secure adhesion, the height difference of the roof curve may not be more than 1 cm over a
length of 2 m, as otherwise the gap between the roof and the mounting plate would be too great to be
lledbytheadhesivesealant.
As the vehicle is constantly subjected to vibration loads during travel, the roof below the antenna unit is
alsosubjecttosignicantloads.Pleasenotegiventhenatureandcapacityofyourvehicleroof(seealso
operatingmanualforthevehicle)thattheweightoftheantennaunitisapprox.19kg.Incaseofdoubt,
consultaqualieddealeroryourvehicle’smanufacturer.

1xpowersupplycable)arefedintotheinteriorofthevehicledirectlyunderneaththeturntable.Ifyou
prefer a different method of laying the cables, they can be run from the rear of the turntable via the chan-
nel provided in the mounting plate. The cables must then be run along the roof of the vehicle in a pro-
tective cable duct (not supplied). For the roof gland, use the HDZ 100 (BN 20410032) sealant available
from specialist dealers as an accessory.
Important
Do not cut the cables short, as otherwise the proper functioning of the unit can no longer be
guaranteed.
5.4 Installation steps
5.4.1 Installation of the cable gland and mounting plate
Note
If you had previously used a Kathrein HDM 140/141 jointed tripod mast or another mast with a diameter
of34mm,youcancontinueusingtheexistingthroughholeintheroof(ifspaceallows).
In the centre of the intended position of the turntable, drill the opening for the cable gland with a circular
cutter(Ø38mm).Deburrtheholewitharoundleoremerypaper.
Provisionally insert the roof gland into the drilled hole (Fig. A).
Place the mounting plate on the roof of the vehicle, such that the centre hole is positioned centrally to
the cable gland. The arrow symbol must be visible from above and point forwards in the direction of
travel (Fig. B).
Mark the positions of the ten fastening holes on the roof of the vehicle in a pitch circle.
Note
The size of the holes and the choice of fastening screws to be used (not supplied) depend on the type
andthicknessofthematerialsusedintheroofstructure.Iftheroofpanelling(plasticroofs)issufciently
strong, it is recommended that round head screws, plain washers and self-locking nuts are always used
to secure the glued mounting plate.

If the roof panel material is very thin and does not provide adequate holding power within the insulation
material , through holes (Ø 5,5 mm) into the interior of the vehicle are required and galvanised M5 round
headscrewsofsufcientlengthmustbeused.
Makesurethatyouuseasufcientlystrongsupportthatcanwithstandthebolttensileforces(largeplain

Notincluded!
In addition to the screwed connection, the mounting plate and roof duct must be bonded to the roof with
adhesiveandsealed.ThisisdoneusingtheSikaex
®
291 adhesive sealant supplied, which is ideally
suited for this purpose due to its broad range of adhesion.
BeforeyoubeginworkingwithSikaex
®
291 sealing compound, make sure that you have carefully
read the safety information for Sikaex
®
products on the safety data sheet and the product data
sheet in this installation manual!
The prerequisite for good adhesive properties is a clean, dry and grease-free substrate. You should there-
fore clean the roof surface with a suitable cleaning agent within a circumference of 17 cm around the drilled
hole and allow the surface to dry thoroughly.
Ifthesurfaceispainted,ensurethatthepaintnishissufcientlywellbondedtothesubstrate.
If the coat of paint is already loose or peeling, it must be removed down to a stable layer in the area to which
the adhesive will bond. If you have any doubts concerning the adhesive characteristics, consult a paint and
lacquer specialist, or the manufacturer of your vehicle.
Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary for you to improve the adhesive characteristics of the roof
surface by pre-treatment with a cleaning agent available from specialist dealers (e.g. Sika
®
-Cleaner) or a
primer (e.g. Sika
®
Primer).
The procedure for gluing the mounting plate is as follows:
Before starting adhesive work, note that the optimum processing temperature of materials to be glued
and the adhesive sealant is between +15 °C and +25 °C. Prepare all necessary fastening elements and
tools.
Prepare the tube of adhesive sealant in accordance with the instructions enclosed with the tube.
Remove the roof gland (Fig. A) and apply the adhesive sealant evenly to the underside of the roof gland
ange.
Replacetheroofglandinthedrilledholeandpressitrmlyagainsttheroofofthevehicle.
14 from 56
Installation and connection
Apply the adhesive sealant evenly to the underside of the mounting plate, completely covering the area
within the circular groove (Fig. D).
This area of the vehicle roof must be completely coated with adhesive in order to achieve the necessary
bonding force.
Place the mounting plate onto the roof of the vehicle, as you did previously when marking out the drilled
holes.
Make sure that the arrow on the mounting plate points forward in the direction of travel of the vehicle.
The fastening holes must be perfectly aligned with the prepared holes in the roof.
Fasten the mounting plate in place with the prepared screws, evenly tightening all ten screws across
the diagonals.
Figure: D
Adhesive area
within the grooves
Note
Theadhesivesealantusediscapableofllingsmallgapscausedbythecurvatureofthevehicleroof.
However, you should ensure that the mounting plate is not bent by tightening the screws.
Remove any adhesive sealant that leaks out at the sides with a clean cloth or if necessary with Sikaf-
lex
®
Remover (available from specialist dealers). Do not use cleaning agents or thinners containing sol-
vents, as this could damage the sealant applied under the mounting plate. Use only cleansing paste and
water to clean your hands.
Secure the cable gland from inside the vehicle by tightening the ribbed nut supplied (Fig. A).
Note that the curing of the adhesive sealant depends on the ambient temperature and the humidity. Final
strengthisreachedonlyafterapprox.vedays.However,thisneednotrestrictfurtherinstallationwork,
since the mounting plate is held in place by the tightened screws.

Lift up the turntable and place it carefully on the mounting plate facing in the direction of travel (see
Fig.E)(donotstepontheplugconnectoranddonotkink/crushthecables!)
The through holes on the turntable must be perfectly aligned with the threaded holes on the mounting
15 from 56
plate.
Allow the turntable to rest on the front edge of the mounting plate. Keep the turntable supported at an
angle (see Fig. E1) and insert a suitable piece of wood underneath it.
Now lay and connect the turntable cables in the mounting plate (as indicated on the mounting plate, see
Fig.E1).Takeparticularcarethatthetwomastercoaxialcables,markedred,areconnectedtoeach

Installation and connection
To prevent water vapour from inside the vehicle reaching the turntable through the roof gland, thread the
three cables through the sealing gasket supplied (see Fig. E2), close the gasket and insert it into the roof
gland until it reaches the stop. Make sure that no tensile load is acting downwards on the sealing gas-
ket as this can cause it to fall out in the course of time.

Fig.F2)(donotstepontheplugconnectorsanddonotkink/crushthecables!)
The through holes on the turntable must be perfectly aligned with the threaded holes on the mounting
plate.
Allow the turntable to rest on the front edge of the mounting plate. Keep the turntable supported at an
angle (see Fig. F1) and insert a suitable piece of wood underneath it.
Now lay and connect the turntable cables on the mounting plate (as indicated on the mounting plate, see
also Fig. F1). Make sure that the cables are not crossed over and that they are taut so that they can-
notbecrushed.Thetwomastercoaxialcables,markedred,mustbeconnectedtoeachother.Initially

Installation and connection
5.6 Installation of the UFS 946/CI+
5.6.1 Selection of a suitable installation location
Thefourscrewsocketsprovided(seediagramonthenextpage)allowyoutoinstallthereceivernotonly
restingonashelfbutalsotoxitthereorinotherpositions.
In addition, the following points should be taken into account:
● Thewallthicknessattheinstallationlocationmustbeatleast15mm,asotherwisethescrewswillbreak
through on the other side or damage the surface
● Ensurethatthecupboardorstoragecompartmentinwhichtheunitishousedisadequatelyventilated,
to prevent a build up of heat. Carpet-covered walls are unsuitable for installation
● Takecarewhentighteningthescrewsnottodamageanycablesetc.,behindorinthewall
● Thereceiver isdesignedfor installation inexclusivelydry, interiorlocations.Theinstallationlocation
must be protected against moisture
● Thecablelengthsmustbetakenintoaccountwhenchoosingtheinstallationlocation
● Theconnectingcablesmustbeprovidedwithstrainreliefs
Ventilation
The heat generated within the receiver can be dis-
sipated from the following sides of the casing: Bot-
tom, left, right and top. When selecting the instal-
lation location, make sure that these sides are not
obstructed or covered. If the unit is operated con-
tinuouslywithinsufcientventilation,thiscanneg-
ativelyaffectthelengthofitsworkinglife!
Maintain a clearance of at least 20 cm above or
below the unit, 2 cm to either side and 5 cm behind
it, to allow unobstructed dissipation of the heat
generated.
