GlassLink™ Installation
Part ONE: installation of
GlassLink™
OUTSIDE
1. Using the instructions included with your satellite system, install the
dish and locate the satellite receiver in the house.
2. Identify a convenient window, through which the signals from the
dish can be routed to the receiver. Usually the GlassLink™ will be
located in a lower corner out of sight, but it can be located anywhere,
in any orientation, on the glass. Make sure the window uses dual
pane thermal glass, ½" to ¾" thick. Contact factory for pane
thickness outside this range.
3. Clean the glass thoroughly with glass cleaner. Remove any stickers,
paint, decals, heat reflecting films, etc. from the surface of the glass
both inside and out. The glass must be perfectly clean and dry. If the
glass feels cold to the touch (less than 60º F), use a blow dryer to
warm the glass, evaporating any moisture that might be present.
4. Install the
GlassLink™ first. Remove the protective papers
from the face of the
GlassLink™ and press it firmly
against the glass. Push on all of the edges to make sure it is
seated uniformly all around.
5. Connect the cable from the dish to the
GlassLink™. Make
sure the cable is properly secured and does not "pull" on the
GlassLink™.
6. From the inside, inspect the outside seal. Make sure that it is firm,
has no air bubbles, gaps or wrinkles. If there are, go back
outside and press until a good, even seal has been achieved.

GlassLink™ Installation
1. It is important that the
GlassLink™ be carefully aligned to
the
GlassLink™.
2. From the inside, to eliminate a parallax view, look directly through the
glass at the
GlassLink™. Place the
GlassLink™
on the glass such that:
a. The notch of the
GlassLink™ corresponds to the
notch of the
GlassLink™.
b. The outline of the
GlassLink™ is aligned with
the outline of the
GlassLink™.
3. Once confident that you can repeat this location, remove the
protective paper and firmly press the unit into this position.
4. Now attach the cable from the satellite receiver to the
GlassLink™. Make sure the cable is properly secured and does not
"pull" on the
GlassLink™.
5. Power up your satellite receiver. LED indicators should be visible on
the
GlassLink™. As you change channels on the satellite
receiver, you may notice that the LED indicators change color. If the
LEDs blink, or there are situations when both LEDs are
simultaneously lit, this may indicate the need for the GlassLink™
Power Booster. Call our technical support line at 1-800-999-5225 for
additional instructions.
