Receiver Description and Installation

Connecting a VCR to the Remote TV

For this installation, always leave your VCR powered on so that

the TV can receive satellite programming. If you turn off your

VCR, your TV will not be tuned to the correct channel to receive

satellite programming.

1. Connect the tuner input of the remote VCR to an existing wall cable outlet

using a coaxial cable.

2. Connect a coaxial cable from the output on the VCR to the remote TV’s

tuner port.

3. Plug in and turn on the remote VCR and TV.
4. Tune the remote VCR to the remote TV channel that you use to watch

satellite TV programming (for example, channel 60) as set on page 33.

5. Write the channel number you tuned your VCR to in the previous step on

one of the

TV2

channel stickers. Place the sticker on or near the VCR. This

sticker will remind you which channel to use to watch satellite

programming. The stickers are located in the inside front cover of this

guide.

6. Set the VCR output to channel 3 or 4.
7. Tune the remote TV to the same channel that you set your VCR to in step 6.
8. Write the channel number you tuned your TV to in the previous step on one

of the

TV2

channel stickers. Place the sticker on or near the TV. This sticker

will remind you which channel to use to watch satellite programming. The

stickers are located in the inside front cover of this guide.

Optional - Connecting to an Off-Air Antenna or Cable

If you want to receive channels from an off-air antenna or cable in addition to

your satellite receiver programming, connect the off-air antenna/cable into your

TV distribution equipment.
For the nearby TV receiving programming from

CH 3–4 O

, the off-air

antenna cable needs to be connected to the

TV A

NTENNA

ABLE

port.

For remote TVs receiving programming from

CH 21-69 O

, the off-air antenna

needs to be connected to your TV distribution equipment. When adding this

connection, the FCC requires that your install appropriate equipment between

the off-air antenna/cable and the satellite TV receiver to prevent you from

accidentally retransmitting DISH Network programming (see FCC Compliance

in the Appendix).
TV distribution equipment devices include coax panels, amplifiers

or super home nodes, and are available through many companies. See
