Operation
1.Turn on receiver and television set. The
2.Verify that you are getting the receiver’s menu screens on the television. These screens are avail- able with or without the dish finding the signal.
3.Turn the power switch on for the MV-4000.
The dish should start moving, making one or two revolutions before it stops to acquire GPS. This can take a few moments or up to
4.Once the unit has acquired GPS, the dish will begin its search.
The dish will pause on the signal long enough to determine which satellite it has found.
If it moves off the signal, it is in an effort to verify the signal and it should return to the signal shortly.
5.After the unit has verified that it has the correct satellite, it will continue to track the signal.
6.If the vehicle does not move for 6 minutes the unit will toggle to it’s alternate satellite then toggle back to the primary satellite and go to sleep. Refer to page 3 for a description of Sleep Mode. If vehicle begins movement, the unit will resume tracking mode.
7.While the vehicle is in motion, the unit will not enter sleep mode after a successful search. Instead it will wait until the unit has stopped moving for 6 minutes before entering sleep mode.
8.If you do not have signal, see Troubleshooting, p. 11.
Recovery From Signal Interruption—
While traveling, the signal will be interrupted when the line of sight to the satellite is blocked. Signal is acquired again after line of sight is re- stored. If signal is interrupted for more than 15 seconds, the system automatically enters the search routine. The length of time for the TV pic- ture to recover depends on the receiver model you are using.
Must drive in straight line for 10 seconds when starting to oper- ate in motion.
