3- Set the satellite mode to which service you are using by using the Quick Guide for
DirecTV, Dish Network, Etc. You will also need to know whether or not your
unit is a non-skewable unit [Executive, Freedom], or a skewable unit [MD500,
MHDTV]. To get into the satellite mode selector, have the Nomad power off,
hold both the Find’ and ‘Stow’ buttons down and hit the Power Button, continue
to hold down the Find and Stow button for an additional 5 seconds after power is
on. Let go at this point and the front display lights will show the current satellite
mode of the unit. Use the ‘Find’ and ‘Stow’ buttons to cycle through the light
patterns until the desired configuration is shown. Turn the ‘Power’ off to store the
programmed settings. [See page 14 Satellite Mode Guide and page 17 Quick
Guide for configurations and more detailed instructions]
● Dish Pro 500 (300,500,800) Series Receiver(s) are a
required component when using the Model MD500.
