8-7. Initializing the System

Step 3. Signal Strength

Depending on the Dish Type you have selected, the Signal Strength menu shows you up to three sig-

nal strength bars for Satellite Networks A, B, and C, in order to help you adjust the dish to the cor-

rect position with the elevation, azimuth, and tilt values obtained from the Your Location menu.

While the maximum signal strength is 100, there will be no apparent difference in picture quality

between signal strengths of 60 to 85. The higher the signal, the less likely you are to experience pic-

ture quality degradation during adverse weather conditions such as heavy rain or snow.

A transponder is a receiver/transmitter on the satellite. It receives signals from DIRECTV and retrans-

mits them to your dish. The DIRECTV

®

HD Receiver is capable of displaying the signal strength of

most transponders by using the following method.

To see the signal strength:

1. Move the highlight to select the desired satellite using “

FG

”.

2. Set an each transponder using “

DE

3. Press “

” to move to the next step of the initial setup.

8. CUSTOMIZATION

NOTE

Depending on your location in the

United States, certain transponders

may not be available. It is normal for

the signal strength level of a few

transponders to be at zero.

NOTE

If you have selected an Oval Dish and

SAT B and/or SAT C do not display a

signal strength on any transponder, re-

check your dish installation or perform

Step 1: Dish Setup again.
