2. Start on a satellite next to or near the satellite that is being programmed.

3. Press TUNING or TUNING SELECT to bring up the dish tuning on the screen. The word DISH should be displayed near the bottom of the screen. If dish does not come up, UNLOCK THE TUNING MODE. After turning the locks off and DISH still will not come up, turn off the parental locks. PARENTAL LOCK MENU.

4. Press SAT then the satellite name your looking for. (EX: SAT S 4). If it says "Satellite Not Defined" when press SAT S 4. DEFINING A SATELLITE. The receiver will change channels from what it was on. Go to an active channel on both the satellite you are starting from and the satellite you are programming with the channel up or down button. If you are starting from a satellite with the same format you should still have a picture on the satellite that you are on, if the satellite has an opposite format there will not be a picture. It will also have the name of the satellite that you are programming on the screen. If this step does not work, try the ALTERNATE METHOD.

5. Start tapping left arrow (East) or right arrow (West) to move the dish toward the satellite you are looking for. Stop when you see either a picture or a clear black screen, check to see what satellite they are on. If the picture is the correct satellite, then proceed to step 6. If it is the wrong satellite, then continue to move and if it is moving the wrong direction, go the other way until desired picture is found. If you can’t find a picture, the correct picture or a clear black screen, try the ALTERNATE METHOD.

6. If all the above steps worked correctly, you should be on the correct channel you were looking for and it should say "Not on Satellite" at the top of the screen. It may have another satellite name at the top, if it does that’s OK as long as you have the correct picture. It also still should have the name of the satellite you are looking for on the screen.

7. Press STORE on the remote control with a sharp instrument. STORE is a hole with a button in it or a recessed button. After pressing store the screen may display "Setting Polarity" and then "Setting Dish". After that goes off the screen or if it does not come up, the satellite should be stored. Press CANCEL to exit the dish tuning mode and then hit VIEW to verify that it stored it.

-If it still says "Not on Satellite" or the incorrect name is still on the screen, proceed from step 6 again.

-If it auto tunes to a different satellite, then you must erase the satellite you just stored and then attempt to find and store the satellite again. First, you need to erase the satellite. ERASING A SATELLITE Next the auto tuning needs to be turned off. TO TURN OFF THE AUTO TUNING

8.Proceed to the Alternate Programming Method if this method did not work again. If everything is OK, then you are finished. ALTERNATE METHOD.

Programming Instructions for 2nd Alternate Method

*This procedure will only work if there are satellites already programmed correctly near the satellite that is to be programmed in. Check a few satellites to see if they are correct before proceeding. If they are not, then this method will not work.

1. Go to a satellite next to or near the one to be programmed, verify that you are getting the correct channels. Press TUNING or TUNING SELECT until the DISH tuning mode is displayed on the screen. Write down the dish position number (usually a four-digit number). Then go to a satellite next to/or near to the one to be programmed on the opposite side if possible, verify they are getting the correct channels. Write down the dish position for this one also.

2. Now, use a satellite guide to get the degrees of each satellite

-If the satellite to be programmed is the same distance from both satellites (or centered between them) then take the two dish positions that you wrote down and add them together then divide the sum by two. This should give you the dish position for the satellite to be programmed.

EXAMPLE:

F3 (131 deg) G1 (133 deg) F4 (135 deg).

1020 ? 1000

since G1 is 2 degrees west of F3 and 2 degrees east of F4

then 1020 + 1000 = 2020 / 2 = 1010

then the dish position for G1 should be 1010

-If the satellite to be programmed is not the same distance from the two satellites. Take the two dish positions and use the formula below to calculate the dish position for the satellite to be programmed.

EXAMPLE:

G5 (125^O) F3 (131^O) G1 (133^O)

1082 ? 1050

A) Subtract the two dish positions

1082 - 1050 = 32 dish counts

B) Subtract the degrees of the two satellites you got the dish positions for

133^O - 125^O = 8^O

C) Divide the difference of the dish positions by the difference of the degrees

32 dish counts / 8^O = 4 dish counts per every 1^O

(This gives you the number of dish counts the dish moves for every degree between the satellites.)

D) Subtract the degrees between the satellite to be programmed and the closest satellite

133^O - 131 ^O = 2^O

E) Multiply (D) by (C)

2^O * 4 = 8 dish counts away from the closest satellite

F) Add or subtract (the answer of E) to the dish position of the closest satellite, so

that it falls in the correct order.

1050 + 8 = 1058

G) 1058 should be the dish position of F3

3. After calculating the dish position, press TUNING OR TUNING SELECT to make sure it is in the DISH mode. Use right arrow or left arrow and move to the dish position that you calculated.

4. Return to step 4 in the Alternate method of programming.
