Receiver Setup for Currently Active or Previously Used Receivers
If the receiver you will be using with the Pathway X1 antenna is an older receiver that has not been used in several years, you may need to connect the receiver to a home satellite dish to be updated before proceeding with the mobile setup.
1.After the receiver has been powered on, the receiver will enter the Mobile Setup menu.
2.Select the state of your current location, and then select “Scan” to begin the search routine (see fig. 6).
Figure 6
3.The satellite will begin searching and will locate the desired satellites (see fig. 7).

4.After the satellites have been acquired, the Electronic Programming Guide will download (see fig. 8).

Updating Receiver Software
For optimal performance, update receiver software occasionally. To allow the software to update, leave the satellite on signal, and press the Power button on the remote or front panel of the receiver; this will put the receiver in Standby mode (see fig. 9). Do not unplug the receiver at this time.
TIP If the receiver is in Standby mode for more than five minutes, no software update is necessary. Turn the receiver back on to
resume normal operation.
Figure 9
After being in Standby mode for a few minutes, the software will automatically begin to update (see fig. 10). Upon completion of the update, the receiver will reboot. Return to step 1 of “Receiver Setup for Currently Active or Previously Used Receivers” to

Operation of Secondary Receiver
When using a secondary receiver with the Pathway X1 antenna, the secondary receiver does not have the full function of the primary receiver. The primary receiver will determine which satellite is viewed, and the secondary receiver will need to be set up for that satellite.
If the primary receiver changes to a channel on a different satellite, the secondary receiver will lose reception and need to complete setup again on the new satellite. For steps on setting up the secondary receiver, see section “Receiver Setup for a Secondary Receiver” on page 5.
Note The secondary receiver’s program guide will only download and display available channels from the
installed satellite.
