Installing a DISH 500 Antenna
15.When the check switch procedure finishes, you will see an Installation Summary screen similar to the one below. The information for Satellite Input 1 and Satellite Input 2 should be the same:
•Satellite - Conn twice.
•Transponder - X twice. This is OK and does not indicate a problem with the receiver.
•Device Type - Twin twice. This indicates that your receiver has confirmed the connection with your DISH Pro Twin LNBF is working.
16.Select OK to return to the Point Dish screen.
17.Make sure the screen shows 119 under Satellite. If not, move the highlight to 119 and press either the UP or DOWN ARROW.
Note: The signal strength bar is used to help you aim the dish by showing the strength of the signal you are receiving. Look at the signal strength bar while you aim the dish.
Note: Don’t stand in front of the dish while you aim it, because your body will block the satellite signal. After you adjust the aim, let go of the dish so that you can get a good signal reading after the dish settles back in place by itself.
18.Turn the dish back and forth very slowly, until the signal strength bar turns green. This shows you’ve found the signal.
Tip: Have one person aim the dish while another watches the signal strength or listens to the signal tone.
