Before using your Carryout®antenna, there may be some initial steps
required to set up your Carryout antenna for use with your receiver. This
is a one-time process. Follow the steps here for a typical installation. If
you have additional questions, consult the full Users Manual.

1)Programming the Carryout Antenna
The Carryout antenna comes factory pre-set for DIRECTV®.
DISH®users should follow the steps shown below.
DIRECTV users can skip to Wiring the Carryout Antenna.
First you’ll need to identify
the electronics box on
the Carryout antenna.
After removing the dome,
you will find the main
electronics housing
located directly behind the
reflector.
On the side of the electronics board, you will see dip-switches that control
what service provider the Carryout antenna is set for. It is factory pre-set for
DIRECTV with
the 8th switch
down.
Factory pre-set for DIRECTV
DISH settings
To set for DISH,
push the 4th
and 7th switches down,
and leave the 8th down.
There are additional switch options shown in the Carryout manual
for alternate DISH settings or Bell TV™settings.
Connect the supplied power cable
to the quick disconnect socket.
Connect a coax cable from the
primary receiver to the main port.
If applicable, connect a second
coax cable from the secondary
receiver to the secondary port.
The coaxial cable needs to run
DIRECTLY from the Satellite In
port on the back of the Satellite
Receiver. If wiring through a wall plate
on the side of the coach, consult
Using Outside Receptacle
steps on back.
2)Wiring the Carryout Antenna
Before plugging in power, be sure that your satellite receiver is set up
for use with the Carryout antenna, as shown inside this guide.
The power plug needs to be
connected to a 12V power source
- or -
connect to an AC to DC
power converter
(like GM-1200 below).
Then, plug converter
into 110V outlet.
If using a Power Converter, it must be able to supply up to 5 amps of current.

Next, select Test again.
This time it will install the
proper switch for use with
the Carryout antenna. Once
the steps are complete, you
will see a similar screen to
what is shown to the right.
The wording and look used
in your receiver may differ
slightly. Press Menu, then
select Parental, Fav’s &
Setup.
Then select
System Setup.
In your Receiver’s Menu,
you will need to identify
the Satellite Menu.
Once there, find the option
for Satellite Setup.
Select the option for
3 LNBs or 3 Satellites.
If given the option of
SWM or Multiswitch,
select Multiswitch.
The receiver will
automatically verify
your setup.
You may see errors
for certain satellites
during this step, but
that is normal.
DISH Receiver Setup DIRECTV Receiver Setup
BEFORE turning the antenna on, follow the steps
below to clear any existing receiver settings.
Now turn on the Carryout antenna. Allow it 3–4 minutes to acquire satellites.
When you see SW64 as the Installed Switch, the Carryout antenna is ready for use. The Carryout antenna is now ready for use.
Check out online receiver setup guides for your antenna at

Plug in the antenna and allow it a few minutes to acquire
the satellites. Then, follow the steps shown below.

Using Outside Receptacle
Cable
If your outside TV receptacle is wired for satellite, locate where the oustide
receptacle leads to in your RV, and connect
your satellite receiver directly to this
corresponding inside receptacle.
If the outside TV receptacle is wired for
cable, the wiring will have to be modified
for use with satellite. The coaxial cable
cannot run through any other devices or
switches BEFORE the satellite receiver.
Typically, if wired for cable, the wiring will either run through a Winegard
power supply or video switch. The easiest way to fix this is to disconnect the
cable from that device, use a barrel connector, and connect a new cable that
runs directly to the receiver, bypassing the power supply or video switch.
TIP: If experiencing problems, connect the Carryout coaxial cable directly to the receiver by
running the cable through your RV door to ensure the antenna is running properly.

Installing the Dome
Installing the Carryout Handle
Selecting a Location for the Carryout
Connecting the Power
Connecting the Cables
Plug the power cord into the quick disconnect socket in the Carryout base. Make
sure that the lock ‘clicks’ when you plug the cord in. This will ensure a good
connection.
Connect coax to the main connection on the base of the antenna. Do not use a
wrench to tighten the cable. The coax provided uses weatherproof connectors,
which can be damaged if over-tightened.
If you have changed the switch settings under the dome, you will need to re-install
the dome. Place the Carryout Dome over the unit so that the Carryout decal on the
Dome is directly above the connections on the base of the unit. Line up the holes
in the dome with the inserts in the Carryout base. Insert all of the dome screws
except the two nearest to the cable connections on the base. Do not tighten the
screws at this time. Continue with “Installing the Carryout Handle” below.
If you have changed the switch settings under the dome, install the Carryout
handle by threading two screws through the handle and then through the two
holes nearest the cable connections on the base. Installing the handle here will
help protect the cable connections from accidental damage.
If using DIRECTV, simply remove the two screws nearest the coax and power
connectors on the base and use these screws to install the handle.
Tighten all of the dome screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
Try to find a location that is fairly level and has a clear view of the southern sky.
The location should provide a stable enough surface to keep the Carryout from
falling over during use, and the surface must be ±5° of level.
Other things to consider when choosing a location for the Carryout are traffic
patterns and the weather. Placing the Carryout near a walking path may cause
people to trip over the cables or knock the Carryout off of the signal.
TIP The Carryout antenna comes with 50’ of cable. Keep this in mind when
selecting a location.
NOTE If the receiver is used for DIRECTV HD programming at home, make sure that the B-Band converter has been removed prior to connecting the
Carryout antenna.
The Carryout antenna comes with two coax ports set in the base. The MAIN
port will control the toggle function and should always be connected when the
Carryout antenna is in use. This cable should run to the “Sat In” port on the back
of the receiver that will be used most often.
Once the Carryout antenna is connected to your receiver, you can plug it into a
12 V Cigarette plug outlet in your vehicle or a 120 V to 12 VDC converter with a
cigarette style outlet.
When connecting the Carryout antenna, Winegard recommends using a 120 V
to 12 VDC power converter or 12 VDC power source that meets power supply
specifications.
Before turning the Carryout antenna on, refer to “DISH Receiver Setup” on page 5
or “DIRECTV Receiver Setup” on page 11.

DISH Satellite Coverage, Cont.
DISH Eastern Arc
The Carryout antenna will operate with most DISH receivers. Winegard does
not recommend using receivers with hard drives not recommended by the
manufacturer for mobile applications. Winegard recommends using a single
tuner DISH receiver.
The antenna will locate and toggle between satellites 110°, 119° and 129° in
Western Arc Mode. The Carryout antenna will not operate in all areas where
satellites 110°, 119° and 129° are available.
The antenna will locate and toggle between satellites 110°, 119° and 61.5° in
Hybrid mode. The antenna will not operate in all areas where satellites 110°, 119°
and 61.5° are available.
Satellite coverage maps are based on level, stationary operation. Reception
interruption may also occur during adverse weather conditions.

Hybrid mode is for use with DISH in the Northeast where the 129° satellite is not
available. If neither DISH Western Arc nor DISH Hybrid Mode will provide an HD
signal, then the Eastern Arc may be used.
Consult the map above. If you are in the 61.5° coverage area, use the DISH
Eastern Arc. See switch settings below.
