5.Select Check Switch. Select Test to run Check Switch.

6.When Check Switch is complete, you will see an Installation Sum- mary screen.

9.The receiver will begin taking a software upgrade. You will see the message shown below.

A progress bar at the bottom of the screen will show how the software upgrade is progressing. Once the software upgrade is complete, you will see a second message that the receiver's memory is now being programmed.

This message may disappear, your screen may go blank for a few minutes, and the green light may continue to blink. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the receiver.

10.When the software upgrade is complete, press VIEW TV and you should now be able to watch TV programming. To activate your pro- gramming on this newly installed receiver, call 1-800-333-DISH (3474). See Chapter 1, Introduction.
