Using Auto Detection to set the dish type

To function properly, the DIRECTV® HD Receiver needs to know what type of satellite dish you are using. You can specify the dish type using the instructions on the previous page, or you can follow the steps below to use Auto Detection to automatically set the dish type.

Before you can use Auto Detection to set the dish-type, the dish must be correctly aligned and the HD Receiver must be receiving a strong signal from the satellite. To check the satellite signal, use the signal meter (see the next page for details).

1.Press the MENU button on your remote control.

2.Highlight SYSTEM SETUP and press SELECT.

3.Highlight Installation and press SELECT.

4.Highlight Dish Setup and press SELECT.

5.Highlight Auto Detection and press SELECT.

The Auto Detection screen appears. The HD Receiver starts attempting to identify the dish type. You can stop the detection process by pressing SELECT during the auto-detection procedure.

Once the dish type has been identified, a screen appears telling you what type of satellite dish you have.

6.To accept the detected dish type setting, use the arrow buttons on your remote control to highlight Back and press SELECT. The HD Receiver will reboot.
