Chapter 4 Installation Instructions GROUNDING THE SYSTEM After you have installed either the DishPro or Legacy system, you must ground the system, and then connect each receiver to a telephone line, following these instructions. INSTALLING THE GROUND BLOCK A properly grounded multi-dish switch can take the place of a ground block. The following instructions apply to a block or a switch.
Grounding the System A ground wire must always be a single piece of wire. Never splice two wires together for a ground. Corrosion and weathering can lead to a poor connection at the splice, making the ground ineffective and dangerous. If you cut the ground wire too short, replace it with a single wire cut to the correct length. 4. Use cable clips to attach the cable to the side of the building. This helps prevent damage. RUNNING THE COAXIAL CABLE(S) TO THE RECEIVER(S) 1.
Chapter 4 Installation Instructions CONNECTING EACH RECEIVER TO A TELEPHONE LINE You must keep each receiver connected to an active telephone line. Otherwise, you may not be able to order pay per view programs. Run a telephone cable with a standard RJ-11 connector from each receiver’s back panel Phone Jack to an active telephone connection. Note: You may be able to use a wireless telephone extender. However, this may not support all the features of some receivers.

Chapter 5 Reference TROUBLE-SHOOTING TABLES Use these tables if you have problems using the system. Look in this section for a description of the problem before calling the Customer Service Center. Many problems arise from basic misunderstandings of how the system works, especially when you are just becoming familiar with it. These tables cover many problems, usually with a simple solution for each one. To solve a particular problem, do the following: 1.
Chapter 5 Reference ON-SCREEN MESSAGES Note: This table describes some on-screen messages in the order of their message numbers. Just find the message number in the upper right-hand corner of the message, and then find the matching number in this table. Message Number Possible Reason What to Do There may be a problem with the multi-dish switch. Check the coaxial cables and their connections to and from the multi-dish switch.
Trouble-Shooting Tables You may have just plugged in the receiver, and it is acquiring the satellite signal. Or, the receiver may have temporarily lost the signal. Wait a few minutes to see if the message is removed. Make sure that all required cables are in place, and check that all cable connections are tight and dry (for outdoor cables). Make sure that the satellite dish has a clear line of sight to the satellite. Check whether branches or leaves have grown into the line of sight.
Chapter 5 Reference 061 You may have set up the receiver to accept a transmission (a “download”) of the latest operating software via the satellite signal. It is very important for the receiver to get the latest operating software, so let the receiver do so. The “download” may take several minutes. Do not disturb or unplug the receiver during this time. 074 The receiver gives you three chances to enter the correct password.
Trouble-Shooting Tables HEARING A PROGRAM What Is Happening Possible Reason What to Do The receiver front panel Power light is on and there is a good picture on the TV set, but you do not hear any sound. You may have muted the sound, or set the volume so low that you cannot hear it. The audio connections may not be properly connected. Check the volume level on the TV or audio device. Turn off the mute or turn up the volume, as required.
Chapter 5 Reference USING THE MENUS What Is Happening You were using a menu, and it suddenly closed. Possible Reason The receiver has a time-out feature that closes any menu after several minutes of no activity. This will discard any changes you have made, but otherwise does no harm to the receiver. What to Do Start over again. USING THE PROGRAM GUIDE OR THE BROWSE BANNER What Is Happening Possible Reason What to Do In the Program Guide, some channels have a red background.
Trouble-Shooting Tables CHANGING CHANNELS What Is Happening You enter a desired channel number. The channel changes, but the new channel is not exactly the channel you entered. You are scanning up or down through the channels, and the receiver is skipping channels that you know you have bought. Possible Reason You may have made a mistake entering the channel number, or the channel number you entered may be invalid. If so, the channel displayed is the closest possible to the channel you entered.
Chapter 5 Reference USING LOCKS What Is Happening Possible Reason What to Do You set a lock (for example, a lock on programs by ratings), but the lock does not take effect. You may not have locked the receiver. You must lock the receiver to apply any lock that you have set. You forgot the password, so that you are unable to unlock the receiver. You may not have written down the password, to keep it in a safe place. Call the Customer Service Center.
Trouble-Shooting Tables Your computer or facsimile (FAX) machine tries to send a FAX or modem transmission, but fails. The receiver was calling the Customer Resend the FAX or modem transmission. Service Center to send pay per view information. When the receiver found that the telephone was busy, it automatically disconnected. The FAX or modem found that there was no dial tone, and cancelled the transmission. Your computer or FAX machine was receiving a FAX or modem transmission, but an error occurred.
Chapter 5 Reference You set up a VCR Event Timer, but the VCR does not record the program you want. You may not have turned the VCR ON, inserted a tape, or rewound the tape. Or, the write-protect tab on the tape may have been removed. If you use the receiver back panel RF or VHF connections in the wiring setup, you may not have set the receiver channel 3/4 setting and both the VCR modulator output and viewing channel to either 3 or 4. There may be obstacles between the receiver and the VCR.
DEVICE CODES These tables contain the manufacturer codes for programming the remote to control your TV, a VCR, DVD player, or audio amplifier. Every attempt has been made to include all codes. If your device brand is not listed or if the codes do not work, the remote may not control your device. In some cases codes may operate some but not all buttons shown in this guide. TV Codes.
