Optional. Use this step only if there are more than three receivers. Connect switch
and receiver. Connect the cable(s) from the switch’s
PORT 1 (or PORT 2, PORT 3, or PORT 4, as
applicable) to a receiver’s
SATELLITE IN connection(s).
Tighten all indoor coaxial cable connections to the receiver only by hand. If you use a
wrench, you may over-tighten the connections and damage your equipment.
Connect TV and receiver. Connect the receiver(s) to the TV(s) and display the
Point Dish
screen (if not displaying, for most receivers press MENU-1-1 with factory software or with
production software, press MENU-6-1-1 on the remote control).
Run Check Switch. From the
Point Dish screen, run Check Switch. When the Check Switch
procedure finishes, you should see an
Installation Summary screen similar to the ones shown in
Figures 13 or 14. Make sure the summary screen shows reception from the satellites on all available
satellite tuners.

Installation Summary Installation Summary
The summary screen below (see Figure 15) is similar to what should be shown for a legacy receiver
connected to the Western Arc DISH 1000.4. Eastern Arc does not support legacy receivers. Make
sure the summary screen shows reception from 110°W, 119°W, and 129ºW for Western Arc satellites
on all available satellite tuners.
Note: Legacy receiver models 1000, 3000, and 4000 cannot receive signals and will not detect signal
from the 129°W satellite locations. Select 3 SAT or 4 SAT for DISH 1000.4 on a legacy receiver.
