The following is an overview of the automatic multi satellite TV antenna operation. For
detailed operating instructions, including receiver set up, refer to the manufacturer’s user
guide.
When you press “POWER,” the antenna will automatically begin searching for satellites.
The instructions assume that the antenna is already in the stowed position.
1. Press and hold “POWER” for two seconds or until the TRAV’LER interface displays
“POWER ON.” Once the unit has been powered on, release “POWER.
2. The interface screen will display the type of satellite dish on the top line.
3. The antenna will enter the search mode as part of its normal operation and will display
“Searching” on the bottom line.
4. The antenna will nd its home position and begin to look for a satellite. Upon nding
a satellite, the antenna will ne-tune or “peak” on the signal.
5. In automatic search mode, the antenna will lock onto three dierent satellites: 99°,
101°, and 103°. The antenna will display an asterisk for each satellite found.
Before traveling, make sure to press “POWER” and wait for the antenna to start to power
up; then press “POWER” again to initiate the stow sequence. See below for information on
stowing before traveling.
The interface includes a user menu for some advanced features. The options most com-
monly used are the ability to change the dish type, check software/hardware versions, change
desired satellite conguration, or manually move the dish.
The antenna is not meant for use while traveling. To stow the unit for travel, press “POW-
ER” one time. The unit will stop what it is doing and return to the stowed position. The
interface will not turn o unless the antenna is successfully stowed. Visually inspect that
the antenna is in the stowed/travel position before traveling. Do not move the vehicle until
the antenna is stowed.
If unable to stow the antenna, it may be necessary to use emergency manual stow. Emer-
gency manual stow is meant as a last resort and is not meant for common usage! To use
emergency manual, stow, unplug the interface box. Then, remove the black plastic bolt
from the back of the mount. Insert a 3/8 socket extension into this auxiliary drive. Turn the
auxiliary drive clockwise to lower the unit. Do not use a drill!
If you want to turn off the power to the antenna after it has locked
onto satellites, press “POWER” and “SELECT” at the same time.
Improper use of the user menu could cause damage to the antenna and/or ve-
hicle. Do not enter the user menu for regular operation.
