ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS
4. Turn the power switch on for the antenna. Within
10–15 seconds, the dish will begin moving and
should make one or two revolutions during startup.
During this process, it is normal to hear a slight
grinding sound as the unit checks its rotational limits.
This does not harm the unit. The system will pause
to acquire GPS.
5. Once the dish begins its search, it pauses on signals
long enough to determine which satellite it has
found. The antenna may move off the signal in an
effort to verify the signal and should return shortly.
TIP: Because the T4 antenna uses information from the
last location where it was on signal, satellite acquisition
may take longer if the dish is inactive over long distance
traveling.
6. After the T4 has verified the correct satellite, it
will continue to track the signal. The unit will go
into “Sleep Mode” if the vehicle is stationary for 6
minutes. This involves a quick verification process
where signal may be lost, then return to the signal
and be silent. If the vehicle begins moving greater
than 10 MPH, the in-motion T4 will resume tracking
mode. For smoother operation, use your on-screen
guide to locate your channel rather than “channel
surfing.
•
NOTE There are certain areas within the U.S. where
the T4 antenna may experience limited or no
coverage of the 129° satellite for HD programming.
DISH home coverage has the same limitations.
Problem areas include Washington, Oregon and
California, but limited coverage may extend past
these areas. Contact DISH for additional coverage
questions (1-888-825-2557).
•
ALSO when the T4 dome is blocked (example:
while going through a tunnel, under a bridge, by a
building, etc.) programming will not be available.
Once the block is removed, the programming will
return.
DirecTV®
The RoadTrip® T4 antenna switch settings are preset for
DIRECTV. If you have a DISH or Bell TV receiver, you must
change the numbered switches found on the electronics
box under the dome.
Maintenance
The RoadTrip® T4 antenna is designed to be
maintenance free. However, it is a good idea to clean
the dome from time to time with a soft cloth, water, and
dish soap.

RECEIVER SETUP
Connect the receiver to a power source, and complete
receiver setup. Check out online receiver setup guides for
your antenna at www.winegard.com/support.
RECEIVER RECOMMENDATIONS
The RoadTrip® T4 antenna will operate with most
DIRECTV receivers. Winegard does not recommend
using receivers with hard drives, as they are not intended
for mobile applications. Winegard does not recommend
using an HD receiver since HD programming will not be
available. SWM only receivers require a SWM-840 kit.
SATELLITE COVERAGE
The antenna will locate and toggle between satellites 101°
and 119°. The RoadTrip® T4 antenna will not operate in all
areas where satellites 101° and 119° are available. The T4
antenna is not compatible with 110° or KA-band satellites
99° and 103°. Satellite coverage maps are based on level,
stationary operation. Reception interruption may also
occur during adverse weather conditions.
