Winegard MV-4000 manual Directv programming, To install the SW42 switch

While in Sleep Mode, the MV-4000 will toggle be- tween the primary and seconday satellites for either DISH Network or DIRECTV. Both have program- ming on more than one satelite.When a channel is selected on the remote control and is not on the satellite currently selected, the unit will automati- cally move to the correct satellite.

DIRECTV programming

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.

DISH Network programming (DISH 500)

DISH Network receivers must have the “SW42” switch installed in order to toggle between the pri- mary 119 satellite and the alternate 110 satellite. (Consult your receiver manual for the procedure to reach the “check switch” menu.)

To install the “SW42” switch:

1.Before turning on your MV-4000 system, make sure that your satellite receiver and television are turned on and your receiver is on the “point dish” menu. (Consult your owner’s manual to reach this menu.)

2.While the vehicle is stationary, turn on the MV- 4000 system and wait for signal acquisition on satellite 119.

3.After signal is acquired, the system will continu- ously track the signal for approximately 6 minutes. At the end of 6 minutes, the unit will en- ter sleep mode. 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.

!Toggle: Your Winegard Automatic satellite dish will move from the primary to the alternate satellite in order to receive multi-satellite programming.
