Locating the Satellite Reflector Use the Satellite Reflector Angles that begin on page 15 for Eastern Arc and page 21 for Western Arc to find the azimuth, elevation, and skew angles of your location’s ZIP code. Write the angles in the spaces provided below.

Assemble antenna assembly without LNBF. Assemble the satellite reflector, LNBF, integrated adapter bracket, LNBF arm, mounting bracket, and mast (antenna assembly) as shown in Figure 1 for Eastern Arc or Figure 2 for Western Arc. Do not attach the LNBF assembly at this time. When attaching the Integrated Adapter Bracket to the LNBF Arm, be sure that the small posts on the bracket fit into the holes on the LNBF Arm (see Figure 4).

Set elevation. Set the elevation by loosening the elevation bolts and the elevation rod nuts. Tilt the elevation and skew bracket to align the edge of the azimuth plate with the required angle on the elevation scale. Tighten both nuts on the elevation rod to hold the elevation, but do not tighten the elevation bolts at this time (see Figure 6).

Completing Installation For this installation, use the steps below while referring to Figure 1, page 2 for Eastern Arc or Figure 2, page 3 for Western Arc. : Use RG-6 coaxial cables from the LNBF to the receiver, using the following cable Note requirements.

Rough peak the satellite reflector for signal on the EA 72.7ºW or the WA 119ºW. Rough peak the satellite reflector for signal on the Eastern Arc 72.7ºW or the Western Arc 119°W satellite signal using the azimuth and elevation settings you wrote on page 4. Do not adjust the skew.

Fine-tune the azimuth angle. With the peaking meter still connected, fine-tune the azimuth angle (see Figure 9). Ensure the three azimuth bolts are finger-tight. Using a 1/2” wrench, rotate the azimuth fine-tune cam to adjust the azimuth angle to achieve maximum signal. After obtaining maximum signal, tighten the three azimuth bolts labeled with a T3 to the recommended torque value given in Table 1.

Optional. Use this step only if there are more than three receivers. Connect switch and receiver. Connect the cable(s) from the switch’s , as 2, P applicable) to a receiver’s connection(s). ATELLITE Tighten all indoor coaxial cable connections to the receiver only by hand. If you use a wrench, you may over-tighten the connections and damage your equipment.

Verify signal strength bar is green and locked. Exit the screen and Installation Summary display the screen. Make sure the signal strength bar is green and locked for the Point Dish satellites. : You might not see signal from all satellites or proper LNBF identification until you take a Note software download and run a check switch in steps 12 and 13.

After completing the previous sections to install the DISH 1000.4, use these instructions to add a fourth satellite location from a second satellite reflector to the DISH 1000.4. The LNBF from the second satellite reflector must be a DISH Pro Single, DISH Pro Dual, DISH Pro Dual Band, or a DISH Network bandstacked LNBF.
