Someone with experience using a T90 superdish needs to explain how to set elevation...

Liriri - is there no scale on the side of the dish's mounting bracket?

[DruzeTito]

oh sorry.. well he shouldnt post all over, no?

[liriri]

sorry im a complete newbie, but I have a T90 installed on my roof with the mounting bracket it came with. I dont see any numbers on the side to tell me the elevation, so how do I set it to 38 degree elevation? Thanks again for your continued help....

Well, I did a google search on "T90 installation instructions" and found this site, with exploded parts view.

It sure looks like there are number scales on side to me on part "A6" (and also for dish rotation to set lnb angle part number "A5"):

EDIT 12/18/04: Sadoun reports this link as showing incorrect data for T90, but is acutally parts list for a T55. I apologize for posting a link to faulty site, but as we all know the internet is not a guaranteed place. I was trying to provide Mr. Liriri with anything he could use to install his dish, which I think is the 1st one of this type discussed on this forum.

These instructions look pretty thorough:

after looking at the parts list I have and the parts list at that site you gave me, I dont have the Part A6: Back Mount Elevation, the one I have on my parts list is the same name but the picture is completely different. Its not the Back Mount Elevation..... now I dunno what to do........ Sadoun you there/??? Im missing a part, can I get that Back Mount Elevation peice somehow?? Thanks

[liriri]

Look at part A6, they are both completely different. I dont have the real Back Mount Elevation Peice... here is the part list from sadoun

And from the other site

liriri:

Don't know what to tell you.
Maybe what Sadoun sells is from a different T90 dish manufacturer than the other link.

Maybe the solution is as shown in the install PDF, where they put that yellow scale on the top of the mount, and against the dish is the way to set the elevation...

Please note that PDF file you have listed is wrong and does not belong to the T90. It belongs to the T55. It is misprinted.

The parts list for the T90 is listed here: http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Products/WF/T90-2.jpg
