SECTION 9
CAMPING & OPERATING
Lowering the antenna
Rotate the antenna until the pointer on the
directional handle aligns with the pointer on
the ceiling plate. Turn the elevating crank
counterclockwise in the DOWN direction until
resistance is noted. The antenna is now
locked in the travel position.

ELEVISION
(
IF SO EQUIPPED
)
Your motor home has been equipped with a
stationary and/or in-motion satellite TV
antenna. This enables you to toggle between
satellites while stationary or in-motion using a
remote control, if subscribing to multi-satellite
programming.
NOTE:
All dome satellite systems are
motorized single dish / single LNB
mechanisms. They can only point toward and
receive programming from one satellite at a
time. The automatic satellite dish is
compatible with DISH Network® and
DIRECTV® standard definition programming
and DISH Network HD programming.
The following is an overview of the satellite
operation and functions. Refer to the
manufacturer’s user guide included in your
Warranty packet for detailed operating
instructions, or visit the manufacturer’s
website (refer to Sec. 10 of this manual for
the website information).
Your unit is preset for DIRECTV receivers.
To change this setting, refer to the
manufacturer’s operation manual.
Modes of Operation:
Whether stationary or in-motion during
satellite signal acquisition, the unit enters
tracking mode.
In this mode, the unit will
actively follow the satellite as the vehicle
travels, even if the vehicle is stationary for the
first six minutes. Tracking mode ends when
the antenna has successfully finished its
search and the vehicle has not moved for six
(6) minutes. The antenna will resume tracking
mode if it detects movement in a straight line
at 10 mph or more.
Make sure the television antenna is in the
travel position (cranked down) before
moving the motor home. Failure to lower
the antenna into the travel position before
traveling may damage the antenna.
In sleep mode, the unit is at rest. The antenna
enters sleep mode
six (6) minutes after a
successful search if stationary, or six (6)
minutes after the vehicle stops moving.
Recovery From Signal Interruption
While traveling, the signal will be interrupted
when the line of sight to the satellite is
blocked
.
Signal is acquired again after line of
sight is restored. If signal is interrupted for
more than 15 seconds, the system
automatically enters the search routine. The
length of time for the TV picture to recover
depends on the receiver model you are using.
NOTE
: You must drive in a straight line at 10
mph or more when starting to operate in
motion.
Toggle In-Motion
The satellite antenna will automatically toggle
between the primary and alternate satellites
for your service provider. For toggling in-
motion, you may
notice a slight delay in
satellite switching which could cause a loss in
picture. This is normal. Picture loss should be
no longer than three seconds. If the alternate
satellite the antenna is trying to toggle to is
blocked for more than 25 seconds, the
system automatically enters the search
routine.
NOTE
: Use your on-screen guide to locate
your channel rather than “channel surfing”.
This will result in smoother operation.
