Dish Antenna Installation
Note: If you cannot find the signal, turn the dish back to the first azimuth angle.
Then, loosen both elevation bolts just enough so you can tilt the dish. Tilt the
dish elevation up by two degrees, and then tighten both bolts. Now, turn the dish
back and forth again. If you still can’t find the signal, tilt the dish up again very
slightly and turn the dish back and forth until you find the signal. Do not change
the skew setting.
19. When the signal strength bar is green, turn the dish back and forth just a little, to
where the signal strength bar shows the strongest signal. When you find the
strongest signal, tighten both mast clamp bolts. Then loosen both elevation
bolts, just enough so you can tilt the dish. Tilt the dish up and down just a little,
to where the signal strength bar shows the strongest signal. When you find the
strongest signal, tighten all bolts in the dish assembly so the dish cannot be
moved.
20. You are now ready to verify reception from both satellites. Select the Check
Switch option. When the Check Switch menu opens, select Retest. The
receiver shows you a message that it is checking the system. When the
procedure is finished, you will see an Installation Summary screen. This
screen may look different than the one shown below.
• Satellite -
119 in Port 1 and 110 in Port 2.
•
Transponder - All twice. This is OK and does not indicate a problem with
the receiver.
• Device Type -
Twin twice. This indicates that your receiver has confirmed
the connection with your DISH Pro Twin LNBF is working. Press OK to
exit this menu.”
•
Status - Satellite reception verified.
21. If you do not see
110 under Port 2:
• Make sure the skew angle you wrote down on page 119 is exactly the same
as the skew angle you set in step 5 on page 121. If it is not, reset the skew
angle as described on page 121. After you reset the skew angle, go back
page 123 and start over from step 16.
• If
119 is shown under Port 2, move the dish approximately 9° to the east
and restart the procedure at step 12.
22. Look at the Point Dish menu. If you have good signal strength with
119 is indicated by a green signal bar, select 110. If you have good signal
strength on 110, go to step 23.
