Before you can begin connecting your receiver to your dish antenna, you must first
complete the preceding sections on connecting your TVs to the receiver.
2
Connect two RG-6 coaxial cables between the Satellite In 1 and Satellite In 2 ports on the
receiver’s back panel to two available ports on either the switch, DISH Pro Plus Seperator,
LNBF in your existing system.
Note: If you are installing your receiver into a system with DISH Pro or DISH Pro Plus
LNBFs (and/or switches), you can have as much as 200 feet of cable between the LNBF
and the receiver. However, you must use only RG-6 coaxial cables rated up to at least
2150 MHz. Some cables may say “Swept tested for 2150 MHz.” If you have any doubt
about this, ask your DISH Network retailer, or look on the container the cable came in. Do
not use cable company TV cables or cables from other satellite TV systems not rated up to
at least 2150 MHz. These other cables may cause signal loss. Do not use existing cables
such as RG-59. Use waterproof F-connectors outdoors.

Peel off the blue stickers and affix them to the cables close to where they connect to the
Satellite In 1 and Satellite In 2 connections on the back of the receiver. The stickers are in
the front cover of this guide.

On Remote Control 1, press Menu, select System Setup (6), Installation (1), and then
