Pointing the Dish Antenna
The DST-3000 receiver will calculate the correct
pointing coordinates and then display this information
on the

Then highlighting the
OK
button and pressing the
key on the remote control will return to the
DISH SETUP
Menu. Use the coordinates from the
RESULTS
screen to point your dish antenna at the
sky. The separate installation instructions that come
with the dish antenna will explain exactly how to use
the Elevation, Azimuth, and Tilt information.
Note: The round dish has no tilt
information.
Testing Signal Strength
The
INSTALLATION
screen shown at the right will
display the strengths of signals from the different
satellites and the transponders on each satellite. The
screen displays a numerical strength indication and a bar
graph accompanied by an audible tone to indicate signal
strength. The higher the number, the greater the amount
of the bar graph occupied, or the faster the beeping tone,
the stronger the signal.
You can check the signals from each of the satellites that
match the type of dish that you selected on the
DISH
