AUTOMATIC SATELLITE SWITCHING

1. After you have properly configured the King-Dome

AIR

antenna and your satellite receiver, the

dish will automatically switch between satellites by simply selecting your desired channel
using the receiver’s remote control.

Note: For better performance when using the automatic satellite switching feature, change channels by selecting your

program from the channel guide rather than channel surfing.

It is common for the picture to pixel or display an error message when the antenna is switching between
satellites, or the signal has been temporarily blocked. PLEASE BE PATIENT. THE PICTURE WILL RETURN.

If an error message appears for an extended period, selecting CANCEL on your receiver’s remote control may
help clear the message more quickly.

When the status light is steady green, the target satellite is found and the unit is tracking.

Note: While driving and in tracking mode, objects such as bridges, buildings and trees may occasionally block the

freeze, pixel or be lost temporarily. PLEASE BE PATIENT. THE PICTURE WILL RETURN.

If the antenna does not sense vehicle motion after several minutes, it will enter sleep mode. The antenna will
automatically wake and begin tracking if it senses vehicle motion or a severe drop in satellite signal.
