The TRAV’LER interface box will try 
to determine the type of dish that it is 
working with. The TRAV’LER interface 
will display the type of satellite dish on 
the top line.

The TRAV’LER interface offers a simple one button operation. This one button operation is used for both general 
operation and for selecting the antenna type. The steps below show the screens that will be displayed as the TRAV’LER 
antenna searches for satellites. For steps on how to set up the TRAV’LER antenna for Bell TV, see pages 3–4.

The TRAV’LER antenna will enter the search 
mode as part of its normal operation. 

Press and hold 

[POWER]

 for two 

seconds or until the TRAV’LER interface 
displays “POWER ON.”

Now that the power is on, release the 

[POWER]

 button.

The TRAV’LER will find its home 
position. Then, it will begin to look for a 
satellite. When the TRAV’LER antenna 
finds a satellite, it will peak on the signal 
and determine which satellites have 
been found. Once the TRAV’LER knows 
which satellites have been found, it 
moves to the correct satellite(s).

TIP

 

If you want to turn off the power to the TRAV’LER antenna after the antenna has locked onto satellites, press 

[POWER]

 and 

[SELECT] 

at the same time. Before traveling, make sure to press 

[POWER]

 and wait for antenna 

to start to power up. Then press 

[POWER]

 again to initiate the stow sequence. See page 6 for more information on 

stowing before traveling. 

Continue to page 5 if setting up the receiver for the first time or if setting up the receiver after moving the receiver 
from the house to the RV. If the receiver is already set up in the RV, you are now ready to watch TV!

In automatic search mode, the TRAV’LER 
antenna will lock onto three different 
satellites. As the antenna finishes 
searching, the antenna will display an 
asterisk for each satellite found.

The TRAV’LER antenna is a versatile satellite antenna and can be manually set to find many different satellites 
individually. The instructions below assume that the TRAV’LER antenna is already in the stowed position. Note: this 
function is rarely used.

The TRAV’LER interface will ask if 
you want to turn the power off. Press 

[ENTER] 

to choose “No” and start a new 

search for your chosen satellite. Press 

[SELECT]

 then 

[ENTER]

 to choose “Yes” 

and turn off the antenna. 

The TRAV’LER antenna will remain in 
manual mode until you select “Multi-Sat 
Mode” again.

The TRAV’LER interface will ask you to 
confirm the change. Press 

[SELECT]

 

to move the asterisk to “Yes.” Then, 
press 

[ENTER]

The TRAV’LER interface will then 
acknowledge which satellite has been 
selected. Press 

[ENTER]

.

Once in the Search Menu, you may 
choose from the following: MULTISAT 
MODE (normal search mode), MANUAL 
110, MANUAL 119, MANUAL 129, MAIN 
MENU (returns to the User Menu), or 
EXIT (enters the search routine). 

NOTE

 

MANUAL 82 

&

 91 will be 

options for BELL TV users.

Press 

[SELECT]

 to cycle through these 

satellites until the asterisk is next to the 
satellite you wish to find. Then, press 

[ENTER] 

to select a satellite.

The User Menu consists of four choices: 

Search Mode

, Diagnostics, Installation, 

and Exit.

NOTE 

Diagnostic and Installation 
menus are not required for 

normal operation and should only be 
entered by a trained professional.

Press 

[ENTER]

 to choose Search Mode.

Press and hold the 

[ENTER]

 button for 

two seconds. The TRAV’LER interface 
will ask if you wish to enter the User 
Menu. Press 

[SELECT]

 to choose “Yes.” 

Then, press 

[ENTER]

.

Press and hold 

[POWER]

 for two 

seconds or until the TRAV’LER interface 
displays “POWER ON.”
