Operation

STEP 1. The more accurately you determine North, the easier it is to locate the satellite. Step outside and away from your vehicle. (Standing to near your vehicle can give incorrect compass readings.) It is helpful if there is a landmark on the horizon to represent North. Return to the vehicle and point the Directional Dial North, or to the landmark.

STEP 2. Turn on receiver and television. Tune the television to channel 3 or 4. Using your receiver manual for instructions, go to the Signal Meter screen. Enter nearest Zip code for your location using receiver’s remote control. After the Zip code is entered, the receiver will indicate numbers for Azimuth (compass heading) and Elevation. See chart below to determine number of turns needed for each elevation. Turn the elevation handle CLOCKWISE to raise the antenna. Turn the elevation handle COUNTERCLOCKWISE to lower the antenna.

STEP 3. Press button on Winegard Digital Display Wall plate. If antenna is in travel position, the display will show LL for Low Limit. HL for High Limit will appear when dish is in up position.

STEP 4. Crank elevation handle to raise antenna. Stop cranking when readout displays correct elevation for your location, found on the receiver’s signal meter screen.

STEP 5. Rotate antenna VERY SLOWLY until correct satellite signal is acquired. NOTE: Rotate 3°, then stop. DO NOT rotate continuously, even if you are rotating slowly. If you notice the elevation angle has changed, it could be due to the following reasons:

1.RV is not parked level.

2.Antenna system is mounted to a slightly sloped RV roof. (This is not a problem. When you have rotated the antenna so it is facing in approximately the right azimuth [compass direction], simply adjust to correct elevation and continue searching for signal.

Special Notes: When you have detected the satellite signal, adjust the antenna up/down and left/right for the strongest signal the receiver displays. Due to variations in receivers and installation methods, you may find the elevation numbers, after peaking on the strongest signal, no longer match what the receiver recommended. This is normal. The elevation sensor should always get you close enough to pick up a signal to peak on. If the display turns off while you’re searching, just push button for another minute of operation. After a little practice, most people find the signal in 30 to 50 seconds.
