Setting Up Dish Pointing
Setting Up Dish Pointing
The Dish Pointing page allows you to configure the satellite dish position. There are two modes: User
Action (default) or Installer Action. The User Action mode allows you to select from stored Satellite
Numbers, which are stored satellite locations, as stored in the dish motor, but does not provide any dish
control.
Proceed as follows to set up the dish in User Action mode:
Step 1 From the user interface of the D9865 Satellite Receiver, choose Input > Satellite > Tuning Setup > Dish
Pointing. The Dish Pointing page is displayed.
Step 2 In the Satellite Number field, enter the satellite number identifying the saved satellite location, as
defined by the dish motor manufacturer. You can enter a value in the range from 1 to 255.
Step 3 From the User Action drop-down list, choose the Goto Satellite as the user action to move the dish to
the selected pre-stored satellite position. Satellite positions are stored in the dish motor, if supported, not
in the receiver. Select None if no action is performed.
Step 4 The Tuner Performance area displays the current satellite dish information. The following table
describes the satellite dish information displayed:
Parameter Description

displayed in the range from 0 to 100.
