and affix it to the cable close to where it connect to the TV SET OUT
connection on the back of the receiver.

lowed by 6-1-1 on the remote.

"Satellite reception verified" for all satellites in your system, go to
step 7. If the Installation Summary screen does not detect all of the

and your dish is pointed for the strongest possible signal strength, you
can select
Yes.
9. The receiver will begin taking a software upgrade. You will see the
message shown below.
A progress bar at the bottom of the screen will show how the software
upgrade is progressing. Once the software upgrade is complete, you
will see a second message that the receiver's memory is now being
programmed.
This message may disappear, your screen may go blank for a few
minutes, and the green light may continue to blink. This is normal and
does not indicate a problem with the receiver.
10. When the software upgrade is complete, press VIEW TV and you
should now be able to watch TV programming. To activate your pro-
gramming on this newly installed receiver, call 1-800-333-DISH
