Satellite Dish (if so equipped)
Your motor home may be equipped with the automatic multi-satellite TV antenna.
The following is an overview of the 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.
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.
For good station reception, the antenna power supply must be turned ON
to view local HDTV television stations. Turning the antenna power supply
ON sends 12-volt DC through the cable to the TV roof antenna turning the
antenna amplier ON. Over-The-Air (OTA) HDTV signals are then fed to
the TV through the coax cable connected to the antenna plate.
The antenna power supply plate is typically located on the wall behind the
main TV or it may be in the overhead compartment above the entrance door.
Turn the antenna power supply OFF to view cable television or to use the
DVD player. The ON/OFF switch is located on the wall plate for the antenna
connection. An LED will light to indicate antenna power is ON.
The antenna is a xed height (8.4” maximum) and cannot be
lowered or raised. Trees and foliage will interfere with receiving a strong
HDTV signal.
