Setting Up the Satellite Antenna

Selecting RETURN returns you to

the Installation Menu.

To install the satellite antenna, or to check the current signal level of the
antenna, use the Set Up Antenna screen.

Note

Make certain that the signal strength of the satellite antenna is optimized. If

the signal is not optimized, you may experience losses in audio or video,

especially during rain, snow, or other conditions that tend to degrade signal
performance. See the Satellite Antenna Installation Manual for details on

using the Set Up Antenna screen to point the dish and optimize the antenna's
signal strength.

To determine the elevation and azimuth settings for the satellite
antenna, select ZIP CODE or LAT/LONG.

□ ZIP CODE uses your five-digit zip code to determine the

elevation and azimuth settings.

□ LAT/LONG uses your location's latitude and longitude to

determine the azimuth and elevation settings.

□ The Signal Strength Meter indicates the current signal

strength of the antenna.

□ The Transponder option allows you to select a transponder

number from 1 to 32. You should not need to change this
number (the default is 2) unless you're instructed to do so by
your program provider.
