DISH Network/ExpressVu Receiver Configuration
If your TracVision M5/M7 system is set up for DISH Network or
ExpressVu service, your receiver(s) should have been configured
during installation. In most cases, you do not need to reconfigure your
receiver(s). However, Figure 2-14 lists special scenarios that require
DISH Network/ExpressVu receiver configuration.
Figure 2-14 Receiver Configuration Requirements
If you need to configure a receiver(s) for DISH Network/ExpressVu
use, follow the instructions for configuring the receiver for your
selected service type in Chapter 3 ”Settings” on page 25.
Linear Receiver Configuration
If the TracVision system does not include a multiswitch, you can
configure the receiver(s) to enable automatic satellite switching.
TracVision systems with a multiswitch installed require switching
satellites using the MCP, which does not require receiver
configuration.
To configure the receivers for automatic switching, the satellites must
be set up in the receiver in the same order they were set up in the
TracVision system (see Figure 2-15).

*NOTE: Only European Tri-Sat configurations track three satellites.
Receiver Configuration is Required When...
• DISH 1000 only - You change satellite coverage
areas (see Figure 2-5 on page 14)
• You add a receiver
• You have reconfigured a receiver for home use
