NOTE

Do not try to insert the test meter probes into the

coax cable connectors. This will cause permanent

damage to the connectors. Use a short piece of

coax with a connector on one end, or Winegard’s

TE-1400 voltage tester (available from your

Winegard Distributor).

been selected

for 10 minutes or

more? See

Note. For the

initial search,

time could equal

10 minutes.

YES YES

tenna mounted at

least 3 feet from

system and free

GPS acquisition may

take longer. Also,

obstructions (buildings,

trees, hills, etc.) will

delay acquisition time.

V. On, Search and Off LEDs are on (Will not find signal)

Clear view of

SW sky

Any satellite within 20° longitude of the desired

satellite will be included as a required satellite

in the Search routine. To find 119, for example,

101, 110 and 119 are all required for a success-

ful Search routine.

Satellites 101, 110 and 119 are within 20° of each other Is the satellite

dish level,

within 3° with

horizon?

YES

Try to level dish to

within 1° of horizon.

The unit will find the

signal with a 1° to

3° tilt, but search

time increases.

Did you run Check

Switch within 6 minutes

after unit has acquired

satellite signal on

satellite 119?

YES YES NO

Did you

retest the

Check

Switch

function?

Wait for unit to acquire

satellite signal on 119.

Run Check Switch again

within 6 minutes.

Retest Check

Switch function.

dish move

while per-

forming the

Check

Switch?

Does the dish rotate almost a full

revolution while trying to locate

the second satellite during the

Check Switch function? Fig. 20.

Connect LNBF correctly.

mary coax connected

from the Satellite In jack

on the receiver back to

the coax connection of

the left side of the elec-

tronics box? Fig. 14, 15.

YES

Is the LNBF coax con-

nected from LNBF to

coax connection on the

right of electronics

box? Fig. 16, 17.
