Calculating Tuners for SWM Installation
Trademarks
Disclaimer
DIRECTV SWM8 allows the use of up to eight tuners with a Winegard satellite antenna, and DIRECTV SWM16
allows the use of up to 16 tuners with a Winegard satellite antenna. Count the tuners in your SWM installation to
check that there are less than or equal to eight tuners being used with SWM8 or less than or equal to 16 tuners
being used with SWM16.
Keep in mind the following when counting the number of tuners:
• A non-DVR receiver counts as one tuner.
• A DVR receiver has dual tuners and counts as two tuners when calculating tuners for your SWM installation.
• Even though only one coaxial cable is needed to connect to a DVR receiver, the DVR receiver still counts as
two tuners in the system.
Total tuners for SWM8 installation = (Number of non-DVR receivers) + (2 x Number of DVR receivers)
Total tuners for SWM16 installation = (Number of non-DVR receivers) + (2 x Number of DVR receivers)
Example: Three DVR receivers and two non-DVR receivers are being used for a SWM8 installation.
(1 x 2 non-DVR receivers) + (2 x 3 DVR receivers) = 8 total tuners for SWM8 installation

**Availability of channels on Satellites 110 and 119 is dependent upon the satellite port to which Port C of the TRAV’LER interface is connected.
Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas operate with Multi-switch technology and require separate accessories to
operate with DIRECTV Single Wire Multi-switch (SWM) only technology receivers.
For an up-to-date list of DIRECTV DVR and non-DVR receiver models that are only compatible with SWM technology,
visit www.winegard.com/directv. This website also lists Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas that are compatible
with DIRECTV.
If unsure of your receiver model, check the back of the receiver or the inside front door of the smart card slot. See
below.
Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas require separate accessories to operate with DIRECTV SWM only technology
receivers. The following hardware must be used with Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas for proper SWM
operation: SWM8 or SWM16, DIRECTV PI-28 or PI-29 power supply and DIRECTV approved splitter (typically 2, 4, 8
port). Failure to use this equipment may cause issues with your system.
The DIRECTV power insert PI-28 and PI-29 may damage a DIRECTV receiver if improperly connected in the
system. The SWM ouput of the insert should never be directly applied to the input of a receiver. During
installation, verify all wiring before applying power to the power inserter.
