5. Pengendalian dan Pelarasan

The GADFISH Gen 3 Starlink Mount allows for two key angles of adjustment to optimize your Starlink dish's orientation and prevent collisions with surrounding structures.

  • Angle 1: Starlink Dish Orientation: The pole connecting the Gen 3 pipe adapter can rotate. This allows you to fine-tune the orientation of the Starlink dish itself to maximize signal reception.
  • Angle 2: Overall Mount Angle: The pole connecting to the base bracket can adjust the overall angle of the mount. This helps ensure precise positioning and prevents the Starlink Gen 3 dish from colliding with walls, eaves, or other obstructions.

Adjust these angles as needed to achieve the best possible signal strength and clear line of sight to the satellites.

  • Signal Loss/Intermittent Connection:
    • Check for new obstructions (trees, buildings) that may have grown or been erected since installation.
    • Verify the Starlink dish's orientation. Adjust the two angles of the mount as described in Section 5 to optimize the line of sight.
    • Ensure all mounting bolts and screws are tight. A loose mount can cause movement and signal disruption.
