 Installing a Multiple Dish DISH Pro System
If you do not have good signal strength with 110, go back to step 18, and 
fine-tune the dish but with 110 selected instead of 119. While the 
110
 and 
119
 signals will not be equal, you should be able to fine-tune the dish until 
you have the strongest possible signal from both satellites.
23. Select 
Cancel
 to exit the Point Dish menu. An 
Attention
 screen will open 
asking the mounting and positioning of your dish is complete with a 
Locked
 indication in the 
Point Dish
 screen. If the answer is yes, select 
Yes
If the answer is No, you will need to repoint your dish following the 
preceding steps until the mounting and positioning is complete and you do 
have the 
Locked
 indication.
24. After you select Yes, the receiver will begin taking a software upgrade. You 
will see a Warning that 
Vital program information will now be 
downloaded into your receiver
. You will also see a status bar showing the 
progress of this upgrade.
Once the software upgrade is complete, you will see a message that your 
receiver’s memory is being upgraded.
Do not disturb the receiver while the receiver’s memory is being upgraded.
25. When the memory upgrade is complete, you should be watching TV. Your 
dish antenna installation is now complete.
Note
: If you are installing other DISH Pro or DISH Pro Plus receivers, be 
sure to run 
Check Switch
 on all of them, and allow them to take the 
necessary software upgrade.
Installing a Multiple Dish DISH Pro System
Note
: You cannot use DISH Pro LNBFs and switches (those marked with the 
DISH Pro logo) with Legacy switches and LNBFs (those without the DISH Pro 
logo). You must install your DISH antenna system with either all DISH Pro 
LNBFs and switches or all Legacy LNBFs and switches. If you mix the two, the 
system will not work.
Note
: You can have as much as 200 feet of cable between the DISH Pro LNBF 
and the DISH Pro receiver. However, you must use only RG-6 coaxial cables 
rated for 950 to 2150 MHz. Some cables may say "Swept tested for 2150 MHz." 
If you have any doubt about this, ask your DISH retailer, examine the cable’s 
outer jacket, or look on the container the cable came in. Do not use cable 
company TV cables or cables from other satellite TV systems not rated for 950-
2150 MHz. These other cables may cause signal loss. Do not use existing cables 
such as RG-59. Also, be sure that any outdoor connections are made using 
waterproof F-connectors.
Once you have installed the DISH 500 with its DISH Pro Twin LNBF using the 
preceding instructions, you can add a single satellite dish with a DISH Pro 
LNBF and switch as follows:
1. Turn on the television and the receiver if they are not already on. You 
should see the 
Point Dish
 screen. If not, open the 
Main Menu
 and press 6-
1-1 on the remote.
