Before You Begin
Your satellite dish antenna must be installed before you can begin following the procedures in this User
Guide. (Professional installation is highly recommended.) Your dish needs to be mounted in a position
where it has access to the satellite signals, and RG-6 coaxial cables must be run into the room(s) where
your receiver(s) will be located. If you choose to install the dish yourself, see the separate instruction
manual that came with your satellite dish antenna.
