Dish Antenna Installation

These instructions guide you through the installation of a satellite system which
includes your receiver (included with this manual), and a DISH Pro DISH 500
antenna system that can be identified by the DISH Pro logo shown below.

Installing a DISH 500 Antenna

The first step in installing your dish antenna is to assemble the satellite dish,
mount it, and point it in the general direction of a satellite. To do this, follow
these instructions:

Finding the Satellites

You need to find the satellites in the sky. To do this, you need to know the azimuth
angle (the south, southeast, or southwest direction to the satellites) and the elevation
angle (the angle up to the satellites) from your location, and the skew angle

.

1. Make sure that the batteries are fresh in both remote controls, and are installed

properly. If needed, make sure that the remote is in SAT mode to control the

satellite receiver.

2. Make sure your satellite receiver is connected to your TV(s) and confirm that

the remote controls are controlling the menus properly using the instructions in

Chapter 2. Turn ON the television and receiver.

3. Display the

Point Dish

menu on the nearby TV by pressing MENU and then

6-1-1 using Remote Control 1 (unless your TV already displays this menu).

4. Enter your ZIP code in the

ZIP Code

field.

5. Make sure that
