To operate your system —
To toggle between satellites when subscribing to multi-satellite programming—
MV-0022 will toggle between two different sat-
ellites. Both DIRECTV and DISH Network have
programming on more than one satellite.
When a channel is selected on the remote con-
trol and it is not located on the satellite the unit
is currently on, the system on the vehicle will
automatically move to the new satellite. (When
using multiple receivers, toggling is controlled
by the primary receiver.)
IMPORTANT! Model MV-0022 will not
toggle while vehicle is moving. Toggling can
only occur after vehicle has stopped for six min-
utes and unit is in sleep mode.
DIRECTV programming
1. There is NO SETUP required for DIRECTV.
When you request a channel located on a differ-
ent satellite, the unit will automatically move to
that satellite.
DISH Network programming
NOTE: This must be a DISH 500 system. These steps
must be done each time the receiver is turned off.
NOTE: For MV-0022, do not perform the steps below
until the unit is in sleep mode. Toggling cannot occur
until unit is in sleep mode.
1. Let unit acquire the satellite signal on satellite 119.
2. After signal has been acquired, press the MENU key on
the remote control or receiver.
3. Go into the SYSTEM SETUP menu.
4. Go into the INSTALLATION menu.
5. Go into the MULTI-DISH installation.
6. Scroll down to the CHECK SWITCH button and select.
7. The receiver will verify that you want to perform a
“Check switch.” Select CHECK.
8. The receiver will begin checking your switch by tog-
gling between transponders. When this is completed, a
message stating “satellite reception is verified” will show.
When it does, select OKAY. If this message does not ap-
pear, repeat steps 1 - 7.
9. Your system is now set up to toggle between satellites.
It will automatically move to correct satellite when chan-
nel is selected.
1. Turn on receiver and television set. This unit
will not operate unless receiver is on. Be sure
your TV is turned to channel 3 or 4.
2. Turn your +12VDC tracking power switch
to ON position.
3. Allow up to 3 minutes for signal location.
Satellite signal acquisition will occur with normal
operating conditions. The signal acquisition time
is faster if the vehicle is going in a straight line, or
is stopped.
NOTE: Acquisition time will be longer if the
vehicle has traveled more than 600 miles without
the unit in use. If you have traveled this dis-
tance without using the unit, signal acquisition
may take up to five minutes.
4. If you do not have a signal after three minutes, be
sure there are no obstacles preventing signal acquisition.
(Trees, hill, buildings or other structures can block the
signal.) Move to an open area so your system can “see”
the satellite signal.
5. Signal interruption occurs while traveling when the
line of site to the satellite is blocked. This corrects itself
when blockage is cleared. The amount of time it takes
your TV picture to recover will be dependent on the re-
ceiver model.
6. If you do not have signal, see Troubleshooting, p. 10.
* If vehicle does not move for 6 minutes or more,
MV-0022 will go to SLEEP MODE. It will remain on the
last selected satellite. Moving vehicle will cancel SLEEP
MODE and unit will resume tracking mode.
