A Guide to TracVision L3
Installing Three or More IRDs
Using an Active Multiswitch
(North American Systems Only)
TracVision L3 has the capability to
switch from one satellite to another
when you choose TV channels that
are carried by your two selected
satellites. However, the use of an
active multiswitch may interfere with
the 22 KHz tone sent by
DIRECTV+ IRDs to the antenna. As
a result, the antenna may not
receive the signal to change
satellites when you change
channels using your DIRECTV+
remote.
In this case, you will need to use
the manual satellite switch
procedure explained in Section 3.2,
"Changing Channels and Switching
to the Second Satellite."
