Chapter 2 - Operation
During installation, your TracVision system should have been set to
the DISH 1000 configuration that best suits your geographic location
(see Figure 2-5) and local channels requirements. If you change
satellite coverage areas, refer to “DISH 1000 Setup” on page 38 to
change your DISH 1000 configuration.
Figure 2-5 Regional DISH 1000 Configuration Recommendations
DISH 1000 Automatic Mode - Preferred for One or Two Receivers
The antenna switches between satellites automatically as you change
channels using the primary receiver’s remote control. The primary
receiver is the receiver connected to the antenna’s RF1 cable (see
Figure 2-6). If an optional secondary receiver is connected, you can use
its remote control to switch between the channels on the currently
selected satellite.
