Manual Mode
Manual Mode should be used to access additional satellites that are not available in Automatic Mode.
Rather than acquiring the primary satellite for your service provider and automatically toggling between alternate satellites, the user must choose the satellite that the antenna will point to. Automatic toggle is not available in this mode.
Each time a new satellite is chosen in Manual Mode, the Antenna and Satellite Interface will reset, and the satellite signal will be reacquired.
See the chart below for a list of satellites available in manual mode:
Service Provider | Available Satellites |
Dish Network | 61.5°W, 110°W, 119°W, 129°W, 148°W |
DirecTV* | 72.5, °W, 101°W, 119°W |
Bell ExpressVu | 82°W, 91.5°W |
* DirecTV Satellite 110°W is not available in Manual Mode
Note for Dish Network and Bell ExpressVU Manual Mode operation.
To operate in Manual Mode for Dish Network or Bell ExpressVU, you must first remove the installed switch from the receiver before operating. See p. 20 for instructions on re- moving the switch.
After the switch has been removed, you may manually select a satellite. The antenna will reboot and will acquire satellite reception. The Guide for the current satellite only will download.
If a new satellite is chosen in Manual Mode, the antenna will acquire the satellite. Depend- ing on the Satellite Receiver used and its software, you may need to reset your receiver to properly acquire satellite reception and download the new guide.
