DISH only:
For automatic satellite switching, KING recommends using a DISH model 311 receiver for DISH SD. For
DISH HD and SD, you can use receiver models ViP211z, ViP211k, ViP211, and 411, but we highly recommend using
Tailgater mode with these receivers for simplified operation with the receiver's built in Tailgater interface (see section 4
to choose Tailgater Mode).
DISH and Bell TV:
If you do not have a clear view of the satellites, the switch will not load correctly.
The SW21 and SW64 switches are a receiver software configuration that is loaded into the receiver after successfully
running a check switch test with the dish locked on and configured for the appropriate service.
This one time procedure will not need to be repeated after successful installation, unless:
a) check switch test is run again while the receiver is connected to a home dish system.
b) check switch test is run when the receiver is not connected.
c) you travel outside your coverage area and reconfigure the antenna for a different service.
d) you are parked in an area where the selected satellites are blocked, but are able to select alternate satellites and
get signal.
IMPORTANT!
The antenna unit requires a "direct
line of sight" to the satellites in the
southern sky for signal reception.
Any tall objects can block the signal
from reaching the antenna.
1. Turn on the TV and satellite receiver.
2. Press POWER to turn on the controller.
Wait for the lights to stop flashing and for the COAX CONNECTION light to remain on.
3. Press SCAN.
The antenna must locate all of the appropriate satellites before successfully completing the
search process so it can properly configure your receiver.
After the antenna acquisition process is complete, specific SCAN PROGRESS lights will
turn on to indicate which satellites have been found (see chart in section 8).
If you configured the antenna for DISH HD and SD and the antenna cannot acquire the
110, 119, and 129 satellites, you may need to configure the antenna for DISH HD and SD
Alternate (section 4).
