light is on, and
there is a picture on the
TV screen, but the picture:
has sparkles or is grainy,
has a herringbone pattern,
lacks color or vertical
hold, or wobbles, or
looks “washed out” or
fuzzy.
• The TV set may not be working
properly.
If the receiver is connected to the
TV using only the RF or VHF
connections, there may be a
strong local broadcast on the
same channel, or a channel
adjacent to the one to which the
TV is tuned.
There may be interference from
other nearby electrical devices
(such as cellular telephones,
computers, microwave ovens,
radios, stereos, or TVs).
• Make sure that the TV brightness and contrast are adjusted
correctly, and that the TV is working properly.
Make sure that the TV is connected properly to the receiver.
Check other nearby electrical devices as possible sources of
interference. Check that all required coaxial cables are in place.
Check for moisture or water leaking into all connections. Dry
them out if needed, then seal them with coaxial cable sealant.
Check the dish-to-receiver cable run length; if it is over 100 feet,
call your dealer or installer.
A “black box” fills almost
all of the TV screen.
• You may have turned on the
Closed Captioned feature on the
TV, and put that feature into Text
mode.
• Using the TV remote control and/or menus displayed by the TV
(
not
the receiver remote control or the menus displayed by the
receiver), turn off the closed captioned feature.
The TV screen is all blue.
• You may have connected the
receiver to an input on the TV
that is incorrect for the signal
output from the receiver.
• Shared View may be disabled
preventing picture on TV2.
• Check your TV owner’s manual for the correct TV input to use
for the signal output from the receiver.
• Enable Shared View (see page 51).
