Appendix A
Installing a DishPro Receiver into an Existing
System
These instructions guide you through the installation of your new DishPro
satellite receiver in an existing system where your satellite dish(es) has
already been installed and pointed for the strongest possible signal. If your
DishPro dish antenna(s) is not already installed, you will need to follow
the
Installation Instructions found in Chapter 4 .
There are two dish antenna systems that are covered by these installation
instructions.
• DishPro antenna systems which have the DishPro logo shown below.
• Legacy antenna systems which do not have the DishPro logo.
Installation Instructions
1. Connect an RG-6 coaxial cable (see notes below) from the S
AT
I
N
port on the receiver's back panel to an available port on your switch or
LNBF in your existing system. See
Chapter 4 wiring diagrams for
appropriate receiver connections in your system. See
Running Coaxial
Cabling .
Note : If you are installing a DishPro receiver into a system with
DishPro LNBFs (and/or switches), you can have as much as 200 feet
of cable between the LNBF and the receiver. However, you must use
only RG-6 coaxial cables rated for 950 to 2150 MHz. Some cables
may say "Swept tested for 2150 MHz." If you have any doubt about
this, ask your Dish retailer, or look on the container the cable came in.
Do not use cable company TV cables or cables from other satellite TV
systems not rated for 950-2150 MHz. These other cables may cause
signal loss. Do not use existing cables such as RG-59. Also, be sure
that any outdoor connections are made using waterproof F-
connectors.
Note : If you are installing the DishPro receiver into a system with
Legacy LNBFs and/or switches (that do not have a DishPro logo), you
can have as much as 100 feet of cable between the LNBF and the
receiver. However, you must use only RG-6 cable - do not use existing
cables such as RG-59. Also, be sure that any outdoor connections are
made using waterproof F-connectors.
