Satellite Receiver Configuration - VuQube VQ3000 Operating Instructions Manual

SECTION 3
DISH NETWORK AND EXPRESSVU: CHECK SWITCH PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT! YOU MUST HAVE COMPLETED THE ANTENNA CONFIGURATION BEFORE RUNNING THE
CHECK SWITCH.
For automatic satellite switching, King Controls recommends using a Dish Network model
311 receiver for Dish 500, and a Dish Network model VIP211 or a VIP211k HDTV receiver for
Dish 1000/1000a. Do not use dual tuner receivers or recorders.
If you do not have a clear view of the satellites, the switch will not load.
Note: The SW21 and SW64 switches are a receiver software configuration that is loaded into the receiver after
running a check switch test with the dish locked on and configured for the appropriate service.
This one time procedure will not need to be repeated after successful installation, unless a) check switch
test is run again while connected to a home dish system, b) check switch is run when a receiver is not
connected, or c) you travel outside the coverage area of the pre-set satellite trio (Dish 1000/1000a only).
1. Turn on the TV and satellite receiver.
2. On the VuQube controller, press and hold the
ON button for 3 FULL SECONDS.

before completing the search process.
