Changing Channels and Switching Between Satellites

(Linear Version Only)
Since some channels might be located on another satellite, changing
channels might require switching to another selected satellite. During
installation, your TracVision M5/M7 system should have been set up
to track the satellite(s) of your choice and the channel guides for your
selected satellite service should have been downloaded.
Your TracVision system can track up to three satellites, stored in
memory as Satellite A, Satellite B, and Satellite C.
up to track three satellites, see
Trisat Mode" on page 17
track one or two satellites, see
IMPORTANT!
To ensure proper operation, the receiver(s) must be set up for the
same satellites, and in the same order, they are set up in the
antenna:
Antenna
Satellite
Sat. A
Sat. B
Sat. C
NOTE: TracVision M7 systems with more than four receivers require a
multiswitch. Installation of a multiswitch requires using Manual TriSat
Mode or DualSat Mode.
TIP: The primary receiver controls satellite selection; all other receivers can
only receive channels carried on the satellite selected by the primary receiver.
The primary receiver is the receiver connected to the antenna's RF1
connector.
TIP: If you want to change which satellites the system tracks, see
the MCP to Track Different Satellites (Linear Version Only)" on
page 27.
