6Getting Started
An occasional “0” indication may be
considered normal.
Results should generally resemble those in the figure, but the actual values will
vary somewhat from those shown in the figure depending on your geographic
location and specific installation. However, if your results are very different
from these examples (i.e, rows of zeros or single-digit numbers) or you receive
no signal indication:
•Highlight the Install tab on the INSTALLATION menu. Verify your settings.
•Re-enter your ZIP code if necessary to verify you have used the correct
antenna pointing parameters for your location.
•Check your cable connections.
•Ensure the DIRECTV® Receiver is connected to a modular telephone jack.
Once you have successfully obtained a signal and your test results resemble
those shown in the figures, call DIRECTV (or your subscription service
provider) to activate service if you have not already done so.
