Now all you need to do is turn the system ON
and ensure everything works properly.

1. Ensure the antenna has a clear view of the

southern sky.

2. Apply power to the TV and the TracVision

system.

3. Turn on the power switch on the receiver’s

rear panel.

4. Wait while the antenna searches the sky for the

DIRECTV satellite. Once the antenna finds the
satellite, the receiver downloads the program
guide. A progress bar should display on your
TV. (It could take 60 seconds to load the program
guide, once it begins loading.)

If the system shuts off after 30 seconds, simply
press the “Antenna Power” button on the
receiver’s front panel.

5. Once a DIRECTV picture appears on the TV,

verify that the 3 status lights on top of the
receiver are lit green.

A - VOLTAGE Light

B - RECEIVER Light

C - ANTENNA Light

Refer to the Quick Start Guide and Receiver
User’s Guide for complete operation instructions
and troubleshooting information.
