Connecting the Receiver to a Nearby TV

This section describes how to connect receiver TV 1 output ports to a nearby TV. The easiest way to connect the receiver to the TV is using coaxial cable connections, but you may also use RCA or S-Videooutputs.

Coaxial Cable Connections

1.Connect a coaxial cable from the CH 3-4output on the receiver to the nearby TV’s tuner port.

2.Place the white CH 3-4sticker on the cable near where the cable connects to the receiver (see the picture in the margin).

3.Plug in the power cord for the receiver.

4.Turn on the receiver with the front panel power button and make sure the green TV1 indicator is lit.

5.Turn on the nearby TV.

6.Tune the TV to channel 3.

7.You should see the Point Dish screen.

8.If you do not see the Point Dish screen, tune the TV to channel 4.

Note: If you want to change the channel that the CH 3-4port provides to your TV, see Changing the TV1 and TV2 Output Channels on page 37.

9.If desired to remind you of which TV channel (3 or 4) to tune to watch satellite programming, place one of the channel stickers (3 or 4) near or on your TV. The stickers are located in the inside front cover of this guide.

Tip: Using cable labels makes it easy to tell which cables connect to the receiver ports. Inside the front cover of this guide are stickers that are color coded the same way as the coaxial connections.
