test. The result
should be what is
shown here.
If you are missing
any satellites or
have low signal
on a satellite, the dish will need to be adjusted.
Once accurately
pointed, the
signal meter will
turn green.
Make small
adjustments to
get the signal
as high as
possible. Check
that the bar at
the bottom of
the screen is green and that the satellite displayed is the
desired satellite.
1) In the first column, input zip code of current location. Note that whenever
you move the satellite antenna to a new location, you must enter the zip
code of your new current location.
2) In the second column, choose Dish 500. With this option selected, use the
angles on the screen as a starting point for pointing your satellite dish. The
actual angles for pointing your dish will be slightly different than those shown
on screen; make small adjustments until getting the signal as high as possible.
3) In the third column, use Transponder 11 for Satellite 119.
4) In the fourth column, the satellite should be whatever satellite you want to
point at. Satellite 119 is the primary satellite, and the majority of
programming is located here. Satellite 119 should be used for initial aiming.
Note: If using a 311 or previous model receiver, select Peak Angles to enter your satellite and zip code.
With all information entered, an azimuth, elevation, and skew angle will be displayed under the four columns. Record
these angles. Now, follow the instructions in the TR-6100 manual to point the dish using the azimuth, elevation, and
skew angles. Continue with step 9 of receiver setup after successfully pointing the dish.
