Help
on Installing your New 4DTV DSR-922 digital receiver
last updated January 26, 2006
It is recomended that you follow your owners user guide
when installing your 4DTV. This information should only be used in
accordance with your users guide.
If your are replacing an existing IRD with a 4DTV, before disconnecting
your old unit, position your dish on G9-24 this would be the(Outdoor
channel). Disconnect your old unit then connect the 4DTV receiver.
Refer to the installation guide for the correct locations of the Motor,
Sensor, Polarizer Wires and LNB cables. After the Hardware is
connected, connect power to the receiver and turn it on.
After plugging in the receiver, the display will briefly show two boxes
and three 8's, followed by 'WM UP.' The warm up process may take a few
moments before the receiver is ready to turn on. Programming satellites
is performed through the use of the remote control, so insert the two
supplied AA batteries into the remote.
After warm up, turn on the receiver. Press
OPTIONS, 6, 4, then
Enter on remote. Select
YES to allow dish movement for
updates.
Select '
Change Dish Settings'
through your remote (arrow keys or
2).
Select either Linear West (customers east of the Mississippi River. )
or Linear East (customers west of the Mississippi River).
Select '
LNB Type.' Use the
left/right arrow keys on the remote to scroll through the types of
LNB’s to find the correct configuration, select standard for the
feedhorn.
Press
Go back on the remote
Press 3 (set Limits) to get to
the east/west limits screen. Now you have a choice. If you are not
knowledgable about satellite locations skip to next paragraph below. If
you are knowledgeable and feel comfortable about satellite locations
you can set your limits as you program the satellites by switching back
and forth between the Program Satellite Screen and the Set Limits
screen.
Press 3 to get to the
Program Satellites screen.
Program satellites as you need. You should know what you are doing if
you have selected this method. Be careful when setting the limits you
could damage the dish, acuator, roof, ect. If in doubt call a dealer in
your area to come do this for you.
Use the arrow keys on the remote control and position the
yellow cursor over the
G0 tile then press
ENTER.
You are now shown the Satellite Adjustment screen. Because the 4DTV
always puts you on channel 1 when you program a satellite you may want
to change to a known channel of the satellite you intend to identify as
the satellite you are on. You can do this by scrolling to it or
entering the channel number.
This being G0 you could use channels 24
(OUTDOOR CHANNEL) or 15
Showtime
as a target channel. If you are subscribed to Showtime and have already
installed a VC module, you should get a picture, if not you will get a
black screen and a pop-up message that will identify the channel as
Showtime West or if on 24 you will see the OUTDOOR CHANNEL as it is in
the clear. We will use channel 24 the outdoor channel for reference.
The Outdoor Channel should appear on TV screen. Adjust the dish
position and the skew to improve the picture quality.
Press 'Go Back' on the remote and
save the dish position by
Pressing
ENTER
The menu displaying the satellite names will show G0 checked and
highlighted.
Press ENTER to go to
G0 again. Select channel
17.
of opposite polarity and adjust the skew again to optimize quality. Do
not go back to the original polarity. You should see CMTV on the screen
if subscribed or a message saying you are not subscribed. If picture is
not clear, adjust the dish position or skew to tune in the channel
manually or use the "AutoPeak Dish" and "AutoPeak Skew". After
adjustments have been made, select
"Go
Back" then
ENTER to save the settings.
Press "Exit" on the remote to
leave programming mode and turn to channel 13. A message should appear
that says “Cannot find channel, continuing to search” and a green “DC”
light should light up on the DSR-922.
Press Options, 6 (Change System
Settings),
5 (Data Screen),
ENTER on the remote control to
display the Data screen. Let the unit sit for about 30 minutes to “map
in” all the channels. The channel count number should begin increasing
slowly from approx. 570 to approx. 4500. Once the channel count number
stabilizes, all of the channels for the DSR-922 will be mapped.
once the mapping is complete call us at
1-605-247-3371 or
1-888-266-4460 to authorize your
4DTV. We will need your UNIT ID to process the account
information and to send a rehit to your system.
You can watch the trip counter by placing your system on G0-101 or
G0-13 option 6,5 and on line 7 the first 4 digits are the trip counter.
when they have increased 5 digits you have received your signal. The
clock should be correct and the free digital channels should be on as
well as any subscription channels will be activated.
To download the IPG (interactive programming guide)
Press guide on your remote and hold
down for approximately 15 seconds.
Press info this will allow the guide to come in more quickly.
Once you have the guide you will be able to programming the rest of
your satellites in by using this to locate more satellites and channels
that are available.
Select

(Set Limits) and begin setting the Western Limit. In order to prevent
the dish from going off the ends of the actuator, it is best to be
conservative when setting this limit. The limit will be different for
each user, so increasing the limit west (right on arrow keys) 100 units
or so is a safe increment. It is also a good idea to check the
satellite dish at this time to insure that the dish is moving west as
you set your limits. Contact your local satellite dealer if you
are not comfortable setting limits. Once the satellite limit has been
reached, select '
Go Back.'
Press
Exit and the
blue 'SAT' button to move the
satellite back to G0.
Select Options,
6 (Change
System Settings),
4 (Change
Installation Settings),
3 (Set
Limits),
3 (Program
Satellites),
Enter to program
the next satellite. Select satellite G5, which is the satellite
immediately to the west of G0. Select Channel 3 and move to the
satellite position selection. Push the right arrow key to increase the
4 digit Dish Position until the free feed Trinity Broadcast Network
appears. Tune in the channel by modifying the Satellite position and
skew in order to obtain an optimal resolution. Select "Go Back" to save
the channel.
Now you can program all of the satellites in one at a time by selecting
Options,
6 (Change System
Settings),
4 (Change
Installation Settings),
3 (Set
Limits) ,
3 (Program
Satellites) ,
ENTER. If a
message received that the limits have been reached, Press "
Go Back" and
Cancel to get back to the Set Limits
screen. Increase your limits accordingly until you reach the western
most satellite.
The DSR-922 should be able to predict the location of the remaining
satellites. The Satellite Location Screen will provide a option to
'Move Dish to XXXX.' The accuracy of this option increases with the
amount of satellites programmed and saved.
After finding W7 & storing in that last satellite, go to the SET
LIMITS screen & program in the West Limit to be about 3 counts
higher than W7 position.
Now, the satellites east of W0 can be programmed. Follow the same
instructions for programming easterly satellites that were used for
programming westerly satellites. Remember to set the East Limit as
needed to include all the satellites that need to be programmed.
After storing the Satellite W9 into memory, go to the set Limits screen
& set the East limit about 2 or 3 counts lower than W9’s position.
This completes the installation of your DSR-922 digital receiver.
