Before You Get Started ...
If Your System Is Not
Completely
Installed ...
Make sure you (or your DSS system installer)
have completed
the
following
procedures
before you start using your DSS receiver:
1
Install the satellite antenna,
as described
in the Satellite Antemla
Installation Manual.
Note
Make certain that you (or your DSS system installer) have optimized the
signal strength. If the signal is not optimized, you may experience losses in
audio or video, especially during rain, snow, or other conditions that tend to
degrade signal performance. See the Satellite Antenna Installation Manual for
details on pointing the dish and optimizing the antenna's signal strength.
2
Connect the satellite antenna
to your DSS receiver. Then connect
the receiver to your television
and telephone
line. (See Chapter
3.)
Note
Your phone line must be connected to the DSS receiver in order for you to
purchase a pay-per-view program with the DSS remote control.
3
Make sure the access card is inserted
into the DSS receiver. The
receiver comes with the card already inserted.
(See page 66 for
details on inserting
the access card.)
4
Call your program
providers
(DIRECTV and USSB) to activate
your service. You'll need to provide
information,
including
the
model and serial numbers
of your DSS receiver and the access card
number.
DIRECTV®
1-800-DIRECTV
(347-3288)
USSB
1-800-204-USSB (8772)
See the manual
that came with the satellite antenna
and Chapter
3 of
this manual
for complete
installation
instructions.
Or, see your DSS
dealer to arrange
for a professional
installation
or the purchase
of the
Sony-brand
DSS Installation
Kit.
