Once a storm passes, reconnect all antenna cables to the correct connectors. If you live in an area that has many lightning storms, buy polarized surge protectors and surge protectors for the power line, telephone line, and RF cable to protect your system from damage. Never attempt to connect or disconnect any wires during a thunderstorm or lightning storm.

Note to the system installer:

The purpose of this reminder is to call your attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. The illustration is an example of antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code Section 810, "Radio and

Television Equipment." Check your local building and electrical codes for other restrictions on antenna grounding.

1.

For the ground wire, use No. 10 AWG (5.3mm2) copper, No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) aluminum, No. 17

AWG (1.0mm2) copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or larger.

2.

Secure the antenna lead-in wire and ground wires to the house with stand-off insulators spaced 4 ft.

(1.22mm) to 6 ft. (1.83mm) apart.

3.

Mount the antenna discharge unit as close as possible to the place where the lead-in enters the house.

4.

Use a jumper wire that is no smaller than No. 6 AWG

Using Your Remote

All around the world, people just like you are enjoying entertaining, educational, and informational programming with a Motorola digital satellite receiver. In addition to offering outstanding picture and sound quality, your receiver comes with a remote control that can be programmed to operate your receiver, TV and auxiliary equipment.

A Word About Modes. To enable the remote control to operate your receiver, your TV, and your VCR, it may have as many as five main modes of operation: SAT mode, TV mode, DVD mode, VCR mode and AUX mode. This means that when you press the SAT, TV, DVD, VCR or

AUX keys on the remote control, you enable it to control each of these devices, one at a time. Naturally, some of the remote control keys have more than one function, depending upon which mode you are using at the time.

Keep this in mind as you read the descriptions for each remote control key. Also keep in mind that some SAT functions are available only within SAT mode. Among these special functions are access to the menus through the

OPTIONS key, use of the Interactive Program Guide (IPG) through the GUIDE key, and the ability to select a satellite by using the SAT key.

Programming the Remote Control

The remote control is set at the factory to control all of the satellite receiver functions, but to use it to operate your TV, DVD, VCR and auxiliary components as well, you must "program" it for the brand you own. Follow these instructions to program the remote to control your TV, DVD, VCR and auxiliary (AUX) components.

Follow these instructions to program the remote to control your TV.

1. Turn on the desired component for programming.

2. Use the table that appears later in this section to find the manufacturer brand.

3. After the manufacturer’s brand name is a four-digit code number (or several four-digit codes).

4. Press and hold the appropriate mode key on the remote control for at least three seconds—until the light on your remote flashes.

5. When the light flashes, key in the first of the four-digit codes (listed in the table) for your component using the number keys on the remote control. Make sure to do this accurately and without a long delay.

6. If the remote control "accepts" the code, you will see several rapid flashes of the light. If it does not flash, repeat steps 4, and 5. After the remote control accepts the code, press the POWER key on the remote control to make sure the remote control is able to turn your component off. This means it is functioning properly.

7. If your component does not respond to the remote control POWER key, even though it has "accepted" the manufacturer’s code, repeat steps 4 and 5 using the second four-digit code from the table. If this does not work, try the third code, etc., until the remote control accepts the code and your component responds to the remote control POWER key.

NOTE: Some cable box brands are also programmable using these instructions.

Check the table that appears later in this section for applicable cable box brands and codes. You will press the TV key to program your cable box. Your remote can only accept a TV or cable box code for this programming step.

Using Your Remote

If Your Four-Digit Code is not in the Tables (Scanning)

If you try to program your remote control using the four-digit codes, and the remote control does not work correctly, you may be able to find a code that works by using the "scanning" process.

1. Turn on the TV.

2. Press the TV key for at least three seconds—until the LED blinks.

3. The following steps explain how to "scan" through the TV codes stored in your remote control using the vkeys. (The LED will not be lit while the vkeys are depressed.

- While pointing the remote control at your TV, press the

5 key to scan upward to the next code. (Use the

6 key to return to the previous code.)

- If the transmitted code is the correct one, your TV will turn off, responding as if its POWER key were pressed.

- If your TV does not respond, depress the

5 key to try the next code.

When your TV turns on or off as a result of the transmitted code, you will know that you have found the correct code.

- When you have found the correct code (power to your TV is toggled on or off), press the ENTER key. This will store the manufacturer’s code.

If You Have More Than One Satellite Receiver

If you have more than one receiver, you may want to prevent the remote controls from affecting the other receivers. To prevent this kind of interference, you must

"pair" each remote control with one receiver. In order to do this, you will have to assign a new "address" to each pair of remote controls and receivers so that each pair functions independently of the others.

Using the remote control press the Menu button to bring up the Menu screen on the receiver monitor (TV).

• Choose Options, choose Change System Settings.

• Choose Installation Settings.

• On the Installation Settings menu, choose Set Remote Control Address. Now follow the instructions on the Remote Control Address screen.

• If you have multiple receivers, you will have to change the address on each of them. Choose from following addresses: 0000, 0001, 0002, or 0003.

To program your remote control for each receiver, hold down the SAT key on the remote control until the light flashes. Once the light begins to flash enter the desired address.

Replacing the Remote Control Batteries

When the remote control batteries are worn out they must be replaced. Replace both batteries within two hours of removing the batteries to retain your programmed codes. The remote control uses two AA batteries. Use only high quality, non-corrosive batteries designed for use in electronic equipment.

To replace the batteries:

- Remove the cover by pressing down the back panel indentation and removing the panel off the remote control.

- Position each battery in the battery compartment so that the flat base (-) is against the spring and so that the raised contact (+) is against the terminal. Make sure the batteries are securely seated.

- Replace the cover.

Most viewers find it more convenient to use the keys on the remote control rather than the keys on the front panel of the receiver. But even though there are far fewer keys on the receiver, they still allow you to control most receiver functions.

After plugging in your receiver, allow it to "warm up" for 30 seconds before use.

Make sure to tune your TV to Channel 3 or 4 (the channel you use for your VCR) when using the receiver if instructed to do so by your installer.

View (IPPV) screens to purchase a program through your receiver. This section explains how to purchase

IPPV events. The prices shown in these examples are purely for demonstration.

Your receiver must be connected to a telephone jack for IPPV to operate.

How to Purchase an IPPV Event

• Tune to a channel that displays IPPV programs.

• Follow the instructions on the Purchase menu.

Free Preview Period. There is a free preview period at the beginning of an IPPV event when you can watch the program without purchasing it. You can purchase a program or cancel your purchase anytime during the free preview period.

Passwords. You may be asked to enter your password before you can view the program. If you forget your password or the system does not accept it, you may have to call your service provider for assistance.
