Receiver Back Panel - Dish Network 500 Instructions Manual

Receiver Back Panel

The receiver back panel has ports you can use to wire the receiver to other
devices (you may not need to use some of these ports). The back panel also has
the power cord and phone jack.
Tighten connections only by hand. If you use a wrench you might over-
tighten the connections and cause damage that would not be covered
by the Limited Warranty.
Receiver Fan and Air Holes
The receiver has a fan behind the holes. The fan turns on and off
as needed to cool the receiver.
Don't block the air holes. If you do, the receiver
could over-heat.
Satellite In
Connect the cable from the satellite dish to the S
port.
Channel 3/4 Switch
If you use the TV S
a TV, set this switch to the channel you want to tune to on
your TV. Choose a channel that isn't used by a cable
provider or local TV station. If you connect the receiver to
a VCR that has a channel switch, set both switches to the
same channel.
Note: If you are connecting multiple receivers to multiple TVs, these receivers
and TVs can all be set to the same channel (3 or 4) to avoid interference with
local broadcasts.
