The satellite finder SF9000 from German company Schwaiger is an interesting product for installers of individual satellite systems. The device is equipped with an LED indicator that identifies the current satellite and two other indicators, showing level and quality of the signal (the latter can be interpreted as indication of the bit error rate - BER). This reliable device operates very quickly.

The finder is also suitable for the less experienced installers who can locate a desired position going from satellite to satellite and having information on each position and name of the satellite. The set of satellites that can be identified includes even less popular ones. The range covers positions from 30W (Hispasat) to 53E (Express AM22). Each position is identified by the transponder marker placed in the memory of the device. The transponder list is continually updated and can be downloaded from the manufacturer's site (using RS-232 interface - the cable is not included).

The device can be powered in several ways:

The current version of the software allows to provide DiSEqC sequence A, B, C or D and control monoblock LNBs.

Dimensions: 145x90x22 mm. The set includes: lanyard, F to F cable (100 cm) and user manual.

The same device with practical case and a range of accessories is available as R10807.
