Acquiring a Signal
Complete the following steps to help you acquire a signal:
•
Using the number keys on the remote control, tune to the authorization channel
(refer to the information supplied with your system). You should see a banner
with the channel number at the top of the screen.
•
Press the OPTIONS key on the remote control. The
Options
menu will appear.
•
From the
Options
menu, select option 6 (
Change System Settings
) and the
System Settings
menu will appear.
•
Select option 3 (
Change Installation Settings
), and on the
Installation
Settings
menu select option 1 (
Tune in Satellite Signal
).
•
Look at the value in the box labeled
Signal
. If it is less than 10, make sure that
all connections between the satellite dish LNBF and the satellite receiver are
correct. If the signal strength remains below 10, adjust the position of the dish
in very small increments until you receive a satellite signal above 10.
•
Using the number keys on the remote control, enter the Provider ID supplied
by your service provider (refer to the information supplied with your system).
You can use the
3
key on the remote control to back up and make corrections.
•
If the satellite dish is pointed at the correct satellite, the large field in the center
of the screen will turn green and display the message
“Correct Signal
Found”
. If you do not see this message within 5 to 10 minutes, the satellite
dish may be pointed at the incorrect satellite. Try again from the beginning to
correctly position the satellite dish before attempting to Fine-Tune (or Peak)
the signal.
