Receiver Setup for Currently Active or Previously Used Receivers

If the receiver you will be using with the Pathway X2 antenna is an older receiver that has not been used in several years, you may 
need to connect the receiver to a home satellite dish to be updated before proceeding with the mobile setup.
After the receiver has been powered on, the receiver will enter the Mobile Setup menu.
Depending on the software version in your receiver, the setup screen may differ between figure 6

 and 6

. Fill in the required 

information, and then select “Scan” to begin the search routine.
The satellite will begin searching and will locate the desired satellites (see fig. 7).
After the satellites have been acquired, the Electronic Programming Guide will download (see fig. 8).
If figure 6A was the setup screen seen in step 2, the receiver should be updated to the latest software for full functionality with the 
Pathway X2 antenna. To allow the software to update, leave the satellite on signal, and press the Power button on the remote or 
front panel of the receiver; this will put the receiver in Standby mode (see fig. 9). Do not unplug the receiver at this time.
After being in Standby mode for a few minutes, the software will automatically begin to update (see fig. 10). Upon completion of 
the update, the receiver will reboot. Return to step 1 to re-acquire satellites and complete setup.
