SAMPLE WIRING DIAGRAM
These diagrams show basic examples of wiring setups between the Mount,
NOMAD Controller, and Satellite TV Receiver. On the left, an MSC60 is wired
through the NOMAD and into a single Star Choice

receiver. On the right, an
HD SL-5 is wired to multiple DirecTV © receivers. The basic wiring principles
illustrated here will generally apply to all MotoSAT™ TV systems.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT RECEIVERS
NON-SKEWABLE Open Faced Mounts:
If your satellite receiver is a Dish 500
© or Dish Pro © and you remove it from
your home to your RV, you will need to perform a “Check Switch” while
the non-skewable dish is in the STOWED POSITION. Upon completion
of the “Check Switch”, your screen should have 8 X’s in the check
boxes, meaning that the “Check Switch” failed. This procedure must be
accomplished before you “FIND” satellite. Failure to do so will result in
improper operation of the receiver.
DISH NETWORK © SEPARATORS:
If a Dish Network © Separator is used, it must be placed AFTER the NOMAD
Controller and BEFORE the satellite receiver. Failure to do so will result in
improper operation of the satellite receiver.
DirecTV
©
B-BAND CONVERTERS:
If a DirecTV © B-Band Converter Module (BBC) is used, it must be placed
BEFORE the NOMAD. Failure to do so will result in not receiving one of
the Ka Band satellites.
