STOW DISH ON - You have the option of having the dish stow when Power is turned off, when AC power is turned
off and when the signal is lost (a nice safety feature for when you drive off with the dish up). You may change these
options to NO by selecting them with your remote and pressing the LEFT and RIGHT keys.
SENSITIVITY - 18-inch dishes should be set to 3.
24-inch dishes it should be set to 5.
DISH SIZE – Depending on which size dish you ordered (the default is 18”), the dish size will need to be set… The
installer normally will do this. (Executive 18” or 24”, MiniDome 18”)
TONE SETTING – (This optional setting is available on software versions 305 and later. To obtain latest
software go to www.motosat.com/osd
and follow software loading procedures.) This setting option adjusts the
ability of the OSD to recognize the proper tone setting to allow for proper satellite acquiring.
a. The tone settings for RCA, Dish Network, and Bell Express Vu receivers should be 7.
b. The tone settings for Sony and Hughes receivers it should be set to 15.
Why would you need to adjust the Tone Settings?
If your system stops or peaks on the proper satellite, but continues to search or, if your system stops or
peaks and stays on an improper satellite you will need to adjust TONE SETTING.
Tone setting may be adjusted in increments of 100 by using the right or left arrow keys.
a. If the system stops on the right satellite but moves on then, lower the tone setting
value.
b. If the system stops on the wrong satellite and stays there, raise the tone setting
value.
CHANGE REMOTE TYPE – (Note: The remote control that came with the Satellite Receiver must be used.
Remotes not outputting and Infrared signal is not authorized or acceptable. Universal remote controls must
match manufacture of the satellite receiver or your system will not work properly). Your system should be
working fine from the installer, but there may be a time when you purchase a new Receiver system. This would be the
time that you would change the new satellite receiver to be recognized by the MotoSAT system. If you select this
option, you will be shown a number of remote types that will appear like a slideshow. Press the “GUIDE” button on
your remote when the correct remote type appears. With some remotes, you will receive a second screen where you
will be asked to select what model receiver you have. Highlight the correct receiver, and press select. That’s it!
IGNITION STOW – This option is done by tapping into a circuit that is activated at the time you are ready to start
your RV. This means, any 12-24 VDC circuit that comes alive when you want to move your RV, such as Brake Light,
TV Travel Turn off Switch, etc. This voltage, when present, will cause the dish to return to the stowed position for
traveling automatically. See inset below.
