Winegard WB-2000, WB-2700 Configure Bell ExpressVU Receiver, Install the Satellite Switch

A confirmation message will appear. The satellite antenna will reset and begin its search routine for satellite 91°W . Your satellite antenna is now set for Bell ExpressVU program- ming. Each time your power on the Satellite Interface, the satellite antenna will locate Bell ExpressVU programming.

Configure Bell ExpressVU Receiver

In order to use the satellite antenna in automatic mode, the Bell ExpressVU must be config- ured with the proper switch installed.

The Bell ExpressVU switch tells the receiver which satellite to look at, depending which channel the receiver is tuned to.

If you use your receiver in your RV only, you should only have to run the “Check Switch” test during the initial installation.

If you move your Receiver between your RV and your home, you must run the “Check Switch” test each time you move your receiver. For example, if your receiver is in your home and you move it to your RV, you must run the check switch test once your RV’s satellite system is on signal. If you move your receiver from your RV to your home, you should run the check switch after you have connected your receiver to your home antenna. Refer to your receiver manual for more information.

Install the Satellite Switch

For most Bell ExpressVU receivers, the following commands will help you navigate to the correct menu locations. If you need help reaching the following menu’s, refer to your receiver’s manual.

Power on your satellite receiver and press [POWER] on the Satellite Interface.

The antenna will begin its search routine and lock on to and come to rest on satellite 91°W after some satellite verification.

If you have an in-motion system, the antenna will enter “tracking” mode for 7 minutes after locking on to the signal. After 7 minutes, the dish will enter sleep mode. For best results, wait until the unit is in sleep mode to run the check switch test.

You now have 6 minutes to run the check switch test.

Press the “Menu” button on the Bell ExpressVU remote control.

Select “System Setup” option “6”.

Select “Installation”, option “1”.

The Bell ExpressVU switch is a receiver setting, not a physical part.

If you will install a second receiver, you should connect the secondary receiver to the primary coax and run the switch test. Af- ter test is complete, connect the receiver to secondary coax at receiver’s perma- nent location.
