The King-DomeAIRis factory pre-set for DIRECTV® standard digital programming broadcast from the

101° W satellite. If you also receive your local channels from DIRECTV’s 119 satellite or if you subscribe to Dish Network® or Bell TV programming, YOU MUST RECONFIGURE THE ANTENNA to work with your satellite service. Doing this will allow the King-DomeAIRto lock on the correct satellites to receive your programming and also enable automatic satellite switching via the receiver’s remote control for multi-satellite service.

Antenna configuration is a one time procedure that MUST BE COMPLETED before using your King-DomeAIRantenna. Configuration may be done with the supplied wall mount controller, or the #1844 Keypad (dealer tool). See the antenna configuration section in this manual for specific instructions.

The King-DomeAIRcan receive available HDTV programming from DIRECTV Ku band satellites at 101° and 119°. It will not receive channels broadcast from DIRECTV’s Ka band satellites at 99° and 103°.

Please read this entire manual before beginning the installation.
