DISH Receiver Setup

The following instructions assume that the TV and receiver are turned on and that the TRAV'LER antenna has
found and locked onto satellites 110°, 119° and 129°. There should be an asterisk next to 110°, 119°, and 129° on the
TRAV'LER interface.
The following instructions are based on a ViP ® 211 receiver. If your receiver differs from the options shown, you may
need to consult your receiver manual. The wording and display used in your receiver may differ slightly.

Ready to Travel?

The TRAV'LER antenna is not meant for use while traveling.
To stow the unit when you are ready to travel, press
The unit will stop what it is doing and return to the stowed position.
The TRAV'LER interface will not turn off unless the TRAV'LER mount is
successfully stowed. Visually inspect that the antenna is in the stowed/
travel position before traveling.
Do not move the vehicle until the TRAV'LER antenna is stowed.

Emergency Manual Stow

Emergency manual stow is meant as a last resort and is not meant for common usage!
Unplug the TRAV'LER interface. Then, remove the black plastic bolt from the back of the mount. Insert a 3/8th socket
extension into this auxiliary drive. Turn the auxiliary drive clockwise to lower the unit. Do not use a drill!

Emergency Power Off

Check
The Winegard TRAV'LER antenna comes with an Emergency Power Off feature. To activate it, press and hold
[POWER] and then press
If the Emergency Power Off feature is used, the TRAV'LER antenna may not be in a safe position for travel.
Do not move the vehicle until you are able to stow the unit.

Other Notes

Weather and vehicle location can impact the ability of the TRAV'LER antenna to locate all of the required satellites.
Obstructions such as buildings or tree limbs can block the satellite signals and prevent the TRAV'LER antenna from
successfully locating all of the satellites for Multi-Sat Mode. Make sure you have a clear view of the southern sky.
