RAISING THE DISH – Using the Remote Panel 
Press the “Power” button on the MAGELLAN Remote Control Panel. The Green power 
light will come on in a second or two. If red lights are blinking wait a minimum of 90 
seconds for the system to fully boot. This booting process is actually the MAGELLAN 
system waiting for the DW7000 HughesNet modems to boot. Once the modems are read 
by the MAGELLAN, only the Power light will remain on but the other lights will stop 
blinking. 
Press the “Find Satellite” button. This dish will begin to rise up, and search for the 
satellite. Once found, it will peak Azimuth and Elevation on the satellite signal, and then 
move the skew of the dish face for a final “Cross Pol” test. 
The “On Signal” light will glow a solid green when the satellite is found. 
The “TX Enabled” light will go solid green when the system is online.

WARNING 
The HughesNet dish transmit power 
is about 1 Watt, and is relatively 
harmless (Your cell phone transmits 
about .7 watts). However, there is a 
danger zone of the dish between the 
LNB and the Dish Reflector. 
Do not place any part of your body 
in this danger zone while the dish 
can transmit. The roof of the vehicle 
is off limits to both adults and 
children.

STOWING THE DISH – Using the Remote Panel
