Home EL

The TRAV’LER will find its home position. Then, it will begin to look for a satellite. When the TRAV’LER antenna finds a satellite, it will peak on the signal and determine which satellites have been found. Once the TRAV’LER knows which satellites have been found, it moves to the correct satellite(s).

In automatic search mode, the TRAV’LER antenna will lock onto three different satellites. As the antenna finishes searching, the antenna will display an asterisk for each satellite found.

TIP If you want to turn off the power to the TRAV’LER antenna after the antenna has locked onto satellites, press [POWER] and [SELECT] at the same time. Before traveling, make sure to press [POWER] and wait for antenna

to start to power up. Then press [POWER] again to initiate the stow sequence. See page 4 for more information on stowing before traveling.

Continue to page 5 if setting up the receiver for the first time or if setting up the receiver after moving the receiver from the house to the RV. If the receiver is already set up in the RV, you are now ready to watch TV!
