Installation Instructions
Overview
These instructions guide you through the installation of a DISH Network DISH 1000.4 satellite reflector,
which consists of an antenna assembly and a DISH Pro Plus Eastern Arc or Western Arc LNBF.
The DISH 1000.4 is capable of receiving digital arc television signals from three DBS satellite locations:
Eastern Arc 61.5°W, 72.7°W, and 77°W or Western Arc 110°W, 119°W, and 129°W. These instructions
cover wall mounting only. For other mounting options (for example, pole mounting or non-penetrating
mounting), see the Retailer Care Site at retailer.dishnetwork.com.
Installation Considerations
The DISH 1000.4 includes enhanced peaking controls for the azimuth and elevation settings that provide
the ability to more easily obtain an optimal peaking of the satellite reflector. Refer to Figure 1 on page 2 for
more details on the enhanced peaking controls for Eastern Arc and Figure 2 on page 3 for Western Arc.
The fine-tune azimuth and elevation settings require the use of a 1/2” wrench. All other nuts and bolts use
a 7/16” wrench.
All DISH 1000.4 Eastern Arc equipment is marked with the circled A symbol shown below to help in
identification. Only MPEG-4 capable receivers are fully compatible with Eastern Arc installations. These
receivers have the Circle A marking. DISH Network ViP-series receiver models must have the circled A
symbol shown on their Contents and Features label to be installed in an Eastern Arc DISH 1000.4 system.
The restriction of equipment marked with a circled A does not apply to Western Arc installations.
About the System
The DISH Pro Plus 1000.4 LNBFs provide reception from the Eastern Arc 61.5°W, 72.7°W, and 77°W or
from the Western Arc 110°W, 119°W, and 129°W orbital locations and provide an LNBF input port to
receive programming from another satellite. The following LNBF types can be connected to the LNBF
input port: DISH Pro Single, DISH Pro Dual, DISH Pro Dual Band, or DISH Network bandstacked
LNBFs.
The LNBF assembly supports connection of up to three satellite receivers in any of the following
combinations:
•
Single-cable connection to DISH Pro Plus (dual-tuner) receivers, when each input is used with a DISH
Pro Plus Separator
•
Single-cable connection to DISH Pro receivers
Attention!
These installation instructions are intended for use by qualified professional
technicians due to the complexity of the installation and compliance to national/local building
and electrical codes.
