The TRAV'LER will find its home
position. Then, it will begin to look for a
satellite. When the TRAV'LER antenna
finds a satellite, it will peak on the signal
and determine which satellites have
been found. Once the TRAV'LER knows
which satellites have been found, it
moves to the correct satellite(s).
TIP
If you want to turn off the power to the TRAV'LER antenna after the antenna has locked onto satellites, press
[POWER] and [SELECT] at the same time. Before traveling, make sure to press
to start to power up. Then press [POWER] again to initiate the stow sequence. See page 4 for more information on
stowing before traveling.
Continue to page 5 if setting up the receiver for the first time or if setting up the receiver after moving the receiver
from the house to the RV. If the receiver is already set up in the RV, you are now ready to watch TV!
