1.DIRECTV receivers must be set for oval dish 2 sat selection to enable toggling between primary 101°W satellite and alternate 119°W satellite only. (Consult receiver manual for procedure.) After receiver is set for the correct dish selection, when you request a channel located on a differ- ent satellite, the unit will automatically move to that satellite.
If a switch other than SW42 appears, or you have an X in one of the boxes below the satel- lites, repeat Check Switch Steps.
5.Your system is now set up to toggle between sat- ellites. It will automatically move to the correct satellite when a channel is selected with your re- mote control.
NOTE: Once these steps are completed, you won’t have to perform this test again, unless Check Switch was performed on another satel- lite dish, such as a home dish.

You now have 6 minutes to complete Check Switch test. Consult your receiver manual for instructions on running this test. Be sure that Superdish and Alternate are unchecked if appli- cable. Onscreen options may vary by receiver.
4.During the Check Switch Test, the receiver will begin checking the switch by toggling between satellites. When this is completed, SW42 will ap- pear on the screen. It will be at the top of the screen, satellite designations will be below, show- ing odd and even transponders. See illustration.
