Receiver Setup for Currently Active or
Previously Used Receivers
If the receiver you will be using with the Pathway X1 antenna
is an older receiver that has not been used in several years,
you may need to connect the receiver to a home satellite dish
to be updated before proceeding with the mobile setup.
1.
After the receiver has been powered on, the receiver will
enter the Mobile Setup menu.
2.
Select the state of your current location, and then select
"Scan" to begin the search routine (see fig. 6).
Figure 6
3.
The satellite will begin searching and will locate the desired
satellites (see fig. 7).
Figure 7
4.
After the satellites have been acquired, the Electronic
Programming Guide will download (see fig. 8).
Figure 8
Updating Receiver Software
For optimal performance, update receiver software
occasionally. To allow the software to update, leave the satellite
on signal, and press the Power button on the remote or front
panel of the receiver; this will put the receiver in Standby
mode (see fig. 9). Do not unplug the receiver at this time.
TIP
If the receiver is in Standby mode for more than five minutes,
no software update is necessary. Turn the receiver back on to
resume normal operation.
Figure 9
After being in Standby mode for a few minutes, the software
will automatically begin to update (see fig. 10). Upon
completion of the update, the receiver will reboot. Return to
step 1 of "Receiver Setup for Currently Active or Previously
Used Receivers" to re-acquire satellites and complete setup.

Operation of Secondary Receiver
When using a secondary receiver with the Pathway X1
antenna, the secondary receiver does not have the full
function of the primary receiver. The primary receiver will
determine which satellite is viewed, and the secondary
receiver will need to be set up for that satellite.
If the primary receiver changes to a channel on a different
satellite, the secondary receiver will lose reception and need
to complete setup again on the new satellite. For steps on
setting up the secondary receiver, see section "Receiver
Setup for a Secondary Receiver" on page 5.
NOTE
The secondary receiver's program guide will only
download and display available channels from the
installed satellite.
