CARO® Vision Satellite System

Fully automatic satellite system Digital + Receiver independent

If you want to keep up to speed with world events even when you are far from all civilisation, or if you can't bear to miss your favourite series, you will need a flexible antenna which is perfectly tuned to your particular requirements. The various fully automatic satellite systems of the "Vision" series are digital and offer you the independence to use your own receiver thanks to the intelligent control panel. Depending on your requirements, you can use a high-range digital receiver or your existing analogue receiver to receive the satellite.

Control unit and control panel of the CARO Vision
The control unit (dimensions: WxHxD = 20 x 3 x 11.2 cm), fully automatic control centre inside the vehicle, contains all the electronics of the satellite system and can be concealed in the cabinet due to its flat design. In addition, only the handy control unit, which has a few, user-friendly keys is attached (see picture - Dimensions: WxHxD = 14 x 7.1 x 3.5 cm). At the push of a button, the antenna moves to the last receiving position (LEM). If no image is received there, the fully automatic search starts immediately. The backlit display informs you about all functions.
