Description

Antenna State

Current state of the antenna:
• Idle

• Initializing

• Searching

• Tracking

• Error

Service

Satellite TV service currently set up in the
TracVision system:
• DTV (DIRECTV)

• DISH (DISH Network)

• EXVU (ExpressVu)

• MAN (Manual)

Satellite

Satellite that the antenna is currently tracking

This number refers to the satellite’s “orbital slot,”
which is its longitudinal location above the equator.

Signal Strength

Strength of the satellite TV signal, as measured
by RF level

The more bars, the stronger the signal, just like a
cell phone. Three bars = good reception.

Operating Mode

Mode of operation currently set up in the
TracVision system:
• Dual-Sat (DIRECTV or ExpressVu)

• Single-Sat (ExpressVu)

• DISH 1000/129 (DISH Network)

• DISH 1000/61 (DISH Network)

• DISH 500 (DISH Network)

For a list of satellites tracked in each operating
mode, see
