Using the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit with Multiple
Receivers
Since the antenna can only track one satellite at a
time, all receivers can only view channels carried
by the currently tracked satellite. Therefore,
switching channels on one Tri-Sat AutoSwitch-
equipped receiver might cause televisions
connected to other receivers to display different
programming, no programming, or an error
message. TV viewers can simply change the
channel until they select a channel carried by the
new satellite, or they can use any Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver to switch back to
the original satellite.
NOTE: Only Tri-Sat AutoSwitch-equipped
DIRECTV H21-200 and H20-600 receivers control
satellite selection. Other receiver models and
additional DIRECTV H21-200 and H20-600
receivers without a mated Tri-Sat AutoSwitch cannot
control satellite selection, but they can change
channels on the currently selected satellite.
Using the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit with Additional Tri-
Sat AutoSwitch-equipped DIRECTV H21-200 or H20-
600 Receivers
The Tri-Sat AutoSwitch enables automatic
satellite switching for one DIRECTV H21-200 or
H20-600 receiver. However, when two or more
Tri-Sat AutoSwitches are installed, any Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver can control
satellite selection. The last Tri-Sat AutoSwitch-
equipped receiver to change satellites controls
satellite selection until another Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver changes satellites.
