Satellite Dish Guided Setup Satellite Dish Guided Setup Satellite Dish Guided Setup tells the DIRECTV DVR what type of satellite dish antenna you are using, so you must go through it at least once, even if you are only replacing a DVR that was already working. Satellite Dish Guided Setup usually takes about five minutes, plus whatever time you may need to position your dish. Connect Cables. After you press SELECT on the Welcome screen, you'll see a reminder to make sure all cables are properly connected to the DVR and to your TV. Press SELECT when you are ready to continue. Satellite Dish Type. Choose the type of satellite dish antenna you have installed. If the manual for your satellite dish antenna is available, you can find its type there. Most people should select "Round dish (Single or Dual LNB)." The most important feature of this type of dish is that it receives a signal from one satellite in the sky. Some manufacturers produce a dish that receives a signal from one satellite but is slightly oval in shape. If you have such a dish, choose "Round dish (Single or Dual LNB)." An oval 2 satellite dish antenna can receive signals from two satellites. An oval 3 satellite dish antenna receives its signal from three satellites. 2 and 3 satellite dish antennas are always Dual LNB. To see the next screen, highlight the type of satellite dish antenna you are using, then press SELECT.

One cable extends from a single LNB dish to a home; two cables extend from a Dual LNB dish to a home (or to a multiswitch). 25
