1 Important Information
2 Planning Installation
3.1 Single Receiver Installation
1. Connect the RF cable from the “RF1” connector on the antenna to
the “ANT.RF” connector on the rear panel of the Antenna Control Unit (ACU).
2. Connect the RF cable from the “RECEIVER” connector on the rear panel of ACU
to the “RF INPUT-RF1” connector on the MIM 2.
3. Connect the RF cable from the “RF2” connector on the antenna to
the “RF INPUT-RF2” connector on the MIM 2.
4. Connect the RS-232C cable from the “PC interface” connector on the rear
panel of the ACU to the “ACU-RS-232C” connector on the MIM 2.
5. Connect the RF cable from any “TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN” on the rear of
the MIM 2 to the “Satellite In” on the rear panel of the receiver.
6. Push the “Select” button on the front panel of the MIM 2 to setup
the “Master” control receiver. Then the LEDs on the front panel indicate Master
STB when you push the button on the front panel of MIM 2 .

Quick Installation Guide
2.1 Installation Location
• Make sure that the MIM2 is mounted in a dry, cool location, avoiding
any wet locations. Yet still be visible and accessible.
• Easily accessible from your main TV viewing area to be able to check
the status LED’s and for manual selection of master receiver. It can
be hidden in a locker or cabinet.
3.2 Multi-Receiver (up to four) Installation
1. Connect the RF cable from the “RF1” connector on the antenna to the
“ANT.RF” connector on the rear panel of the Antenna Control Unit (ACU).
2. Connect the RF cable from the “RECEIVER” connector on the rear panel of the ACU
to the “RF INPUT-RF1” connector on the MIM 2.
3. Connect the RF cable from the “RF2” connector on the antenna to the
“RF INPUT-RF2” connector on the MIM 2.
4. Connect with the RS-232C cable from the “PC Interface” connector on the rear
panel of ACU to the “ACU-RS-232C” connector on the MIM 2.
5. Connect the RF cable from any “TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN” on the rear of MIM 2
to the “Satellite In” on the rear panel of the receiver.
6. If you have more than one receiver, repeat step 5 to connect RF cables
between the other receivers and the MIM 2 connectors.
7. After completing connections, select one as “Master” by pushing
the “Select” button on the front panel of the MIM 2. Then the LEDs on the front
panel indicate Master STB when you push the button on the front panel of MIM 2.
2.2 Power Requirements
• DC Power Cable: Connect the DC Power Cable to use DC power source from the
i-Series ACU.
1000 mm (39.37”)
• AC-DC Adapter: Connect the AC Adapter if using an AC power source.
(Input 100-240V AC 50/60Hz, Output : 12V DC 3.33A)

4 Select the Master Control Function
1. When you have a receiver connected to “TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN” number 1
of the MIM 2, the STB1 light turns on when you push the button the first time.
2. If you have other receivers connected, the STB light will move from STB1
through STB4 when the button is pushed. This light means the receiver using
this connection will be the “Master”. You can designate any receiver as the
Master using the “Select” button.
3. When using multiple MIM 2 devices, first select a Master MIM 2. When the
button on the Master MIM 2 is pushed, all lights on the other MIM 2 turns off
because only one MIM 2 can be a Master. Once the Master MIM 2 is selected,
you can select STB1 through STB4 as the Master receiver using the “Select”
button.
NOTE
Please ensure that the Select
button is not accidentally pressed
and switches to another Master
receiver. This can cause loss of
signal message on screen.

6 Setup a Single Receiver
5.1 Triple Sat conguration
To Congure the correct set of satellites for MIM 2 to use, ACU needs to
be setup as follows.
6.1 Initial Setup and Mobile Antenna Setup
1. If the receiver is an existing and previously activated receiver, continue with this
guide. For brand new receivers, please us the instructions for
“Setup the Single Receiver - Brand New Receivers” (Refer to the User Guide).
2. After all the cables are connected completely, turn on the power of the ACU. Ensure
that the ACU is tracking “B: DISH110”.
3. After the ACU is tracking “B: DISH110”, power on the Wally Receiver.
When setting up Load Region and Select North America, then select Dish West (even
if you are in the East), this sets the correct Triple Sat sequence automatically.
7 Setup for up to four Wally Receivers
7.1 Setup and Mobile Antenna Setup for 1st Receiver.
