Panasonic Installation Manual TA-DA2420 for DIRECTV PLUS™ Satellite Dish Antenna or DIRECTV PARA TODOS™ Satellite Dish Antenna INTRODUCTION This antenna system, with the equipment supplied, can receive signals simultaneously from satellites located at 101° and 119° West longitude orbital locations. This antenna system also has a reserved position for a satellite located at 110°W for additional services. If such services are offered in your local area, you will be notified. The installation procedures listed in this manual require basic knowledge in construction, assembly and wiring. In order to safely install this antenna system, you must be able to perform the following skills: • Use hand tools for assembly. • Drill and seal holes in mounting surfaces. • Use a bubble level to plumb the mast. (Critical alignment - See Figure 2B.) • Use a compass and inclinometer or protractor to determine clear line of sight to satellite. • Install and run coaxial cables through the home from the antenna to the receivers. • Climb ladders or roofs to mount and wire the antenna. • Know local and NEC grounding codes. (The National Electric Code is published by the National Fire Protection Association, 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts, 02269-9959 and may be available at your local public library.) If you feel this installation is beyond your experience and skill level, then contact the store where the system was purchased for advice on professional installation services in your area. WARNINGS Local building and electrical codes (see latest revision of National Electrical Code) require proper grounding of the antenna mount and coaxial cables. Improper installations may seriously damage the equipment or the building and cause injury or death to you. Contact a licensed inspector or electrician in your area for assistance. WATCH OUT for power lines which may be overhead, buried underground and/or hidden behind walls. Take extreme care to avoid contact with any power lines with ladders, satellite system parts or tools during the installation to avoid serious injury or death.
