SEA-KING CONFIGURATION: HD PROGRAMMING FROM THE 110 SATELLITE
1. Make sure your current region is selected (see page 21).
2. Select your satellite pair
(see page 20).
Your channels are broadcast from 5 different satellite locations, and the antenna can be set
to automatically switch between two satellites (101/110) or (101/119). If you select the
(101/110) satellite pair on the controller, the antenna will automatically switch to the
appropriate satellite when a channel broadcast from the 101 or 110 satellite is selected. In
this example, if you select a channel that is broadcast from the 119 satellite, you will need to
select the (101/119) satellite pair on the controller and then the antenna will automatically
switch to the appropriate satellite when a channel broadcast from the 101 or 119 satellite is
selected.
3. To change the selected satellite pair, simply press the button on the controller.
IMPORTANT! Select your current region first. Failure to select your current region may result in
extraordinary delays in channel acquisition (see page 21).
Note: The program guide will show all channels available from the 101, 110, 119 satellites, however it may take up to
an hour for this information to be downloaded into the receiver after the satellite is acquired. If all of your
channels do not load in the guide within an hour, press the reset button on the front of your DIRECTV receiver.
When switching between satellites, the TV picture may be disrupted for a brief period while the receiver
processes the signal from the satellite.
