Introduction
Congratulations! You have purchased one of
Winegard’s latest developments in the mobile satellite reception product line —the Movin’ ViewTM. This
system, used with your digital satellite receiver, will
deliver the best reception possible.
How Does Digital Satellite
TV Work?
Satellite programming originates from an “uplink”
facility on Earth — the facility receives many signals
from different sources, combines the signals digitally
and transmits to the satellites. The satellites (22,300
miles above Earth) receive the uplink signal, amplify
it and then transmit it back to earth in the Ku frequency band. This signal is
concentrated and reflected to the
LNBF* located at the “focal point”
of the dish. The LNBF amplifies and
converts the signal to the 950 to
1450 MHz range. The signal is then
passed through a coaxial cable to the receiver where individual channel selection
and processing take place.
For Programming information call:
DISH NETWORK® - 1-800-333-DISH (1-800-333-3474)
DIRECTV® - 1-800-DIRECTV (1-800-347-3288)
EXPRESSVU® - 1-888-SKYDISH (1-888-759-3474)
Your new Winegard RV Digital Satellite System is an
easy-to-use satellite TV reception system. Because it
mounts on the top of your recreational vehicle, it goes
where you go and provides quality reception of digital
satellite signals. Check with your program provider for
exact coverage area.
MV3500T features:
• Two receiver compatible
• GPS Technology
• Easy “one-button” operation
• Compatible with most digital satellite receivers
• Ability to toggle between satellites using remote
control, if subscribing to multisatellite programming
• Winegard warranty
• Integrated DVB Technology

MOUNTING
DirecTV® receivers must be set to the two satellite, oval dish setting. Refer to your receiver manual.
DISH Network receivers must either have the check switch set for SW42 or unknown, no satellite found. See
page 5.
The satellite system has two modes of operation; Tracking Mode and Sleep Mode. When you first turn the unit
on, it enters Tracking Mode. In this mode the unit will search and actively follow the satellite as the vehicle travels. Tracking mode ends when the unit has successfully finished its search and the vehicle has not moved for
six minutes.
Sleep Mode, this is the unit at rest mode. During Sleep mode the dish will toggle between primary and secondary satellites as you change channels with the remote. The unit enters Sleep mode about six minutes after a
successful search if stationary, or six minutes after the vehicle stops moving.
