Mitsubishi SR-HD5 HD DIRECTV Plus Receiver

When you have received a strong signal from several transponders on each of the satellites you are setting up, you have completed the setup for digital satellite channels. A numeric value for the signal strength ranges from 0 to 99. While your signal strength may vary, refer to the following map to determine the suggested signal strength for your area:

70’s

Typical signal strength results. Your actual signal strength may vary.

Check to see if you are receiving the DIRECTV Promotional Channel on Channel 100. If you are receiving that channel, you can now telephone 1-800 DIRECTV to subscribe to DIRECTV Programming®. If you have difficulties receiving a strong signal on one individual satellite, the pointing of the dish antenna will need fine tuning.

Fine Tuning the Pointing of the Dish Antenna

It often takes two people to fine tune the pointing of the dish antenna. One person watches the signal strength indicator on the INSTALLATION screen and relays the information to another person who is adjusting the dish antenna. To fine tune the pointing of the dish antenna, you will need to select a satellite on the Source pop-up menu. Then select one or more transponders from that satellite by using the XPONDER pop-up menu. Once the pointing of the dish antenna has been fine tuned to receive a strong signal from Satellite A (101°) and Satellite B (119°), the pointing of the dish antenna at Satellite C (110°) should be correct.

Selecting Transponders

The XPONDER pop-up menu will display the signal strength from individual transponders on each of the satellites. A transponder is a group of circuits on the satellite that transmits the satellite channels. There are numerous transponders on each satellite; however, not all of the transponders will be in use. All of the transponders on Satellite A will provide some signal strength indication. But not all the transponders on Satellites B and C may be fully utilized at this time.

To check the signal strength of individual transponders, first select the satellite using the Source pop-up menu. Then highlighting the Xponder button on the INSTALLATION screen and pressing the SELECT key on the remote control will display the XPONDER pop-up menu. Use the
