Online receiver setup guides are
available for the TRAV’LER antenna
at www.winegard.com/receivers/
setupguide.php.
If it is not possible to install the
reflector with the unit in the stowed
position, press “POWER” to turn on the
unit, and as the antenna raises, press
“POWER” and “SELECT” at the same
time; when the antenna stops moving,
the reflector can then be installed.
If the TRAV’LER antenna cannot find
the primary satellite (119° for DISH,
101° for DIRECTV, 91.5° for Bell TV,
or 107° for Shaw Direct) due to an
obstruction, the search routine will fail.
In this case, the TRAV’LER antenna will
stow, and the interface box will indicate
a failed search.
