Selecting a Location for the Antenna
Choose a location with a clear, unobstructed view of the southern sky. Avoid
obstructions such as trees, hills, vehicles, or buildings—these can block the signal
from the satellite.
Make sure the antenna is not placed in the path of people or vehicles; otherwise, the
antenna may be knocked off of the signal if run into, or cables may be disconnected
from the unit.
Try to select a location that will allow the Pathway X2 antenna to sit within three
degrees of level. The antenna may take longer to lock onto signal if the antenna is
not level.

NOTE
Satellite signal will not pass
through solid objects. For this
reason, it is vital to select a location with a
clear, unobstructed view of the southern sky.
NOTE
A 25 foot coaxial cable is
included and recommended
for use with the antenna. Longer coax
runs could potentially cause intermittent
problems. Maximum cable length should
never exceed 50 feet.
Connecting the Antenna to the Receiver(s)
Align the antenna so that the main
and secondary coax ports are pointing
approximately North.
and secondary coax ports are pointing
approximately North.
TIP
Run the coaxial cable directly from
the satellite receiver to the Pathway
X2 antenna when searching for signal.
Connect a coax cable from the main
port to the “Sat In” port on the back
of the receiver that will be used most
often. The main port should always
be connected to the primary receiver
when the antenna is in use, or there will
be no power to the electronics.

If hooking up the Pathway X2 antenna
to two receivers, remove the cap from
the secondary port, and run a second
coaxial cable from the secondary port
on the base to the “Sat In” port on a
second receiver.

NOTE
The receiver provides power to
the electronics via the main port.
There will be no power to the electronics
if a coaxial cable is connected to the
secondary port but not the main port.
DISH Receiver Setup
After connecting the antenna to the receiver(s), connect the receiver to a power source, and complete receiver setup. Receiver setup
for the primary receiver follows; if setting up with a secondary receiver, see “Receiver Setup for a Secondary Receiver” on page 4.

If using a brand new receiver, follow the steps under “Receiver Setup for New Receivers.” If using a receiver that is currently active
or has been previously used, follow the steps under “Receiver Setup for Currently Active or Previously Used Receivers.”

NOTE
While the antenna is compatible with DISH eastern and western arc, in some cases the antenna may need to initially be set up using the western
arc to allow the receiver to update its software. Once the software is updated, the antenna will work on either arc where coverage is available.

Receiver Setup for New Receivers
If using a new receiver with the Pathway X2 antenna, the receiver will go through an Installation Wizard to help with the setup process.
Follow the on-screen instructions to program your remote control.
During step 2 of the Installation Wizard, the unit will need to acquire satellites and update the receiver (see fig. 1). This step will
require a search initiated by the Mobile Setup screen. Depending on the manufacturing date of your receiver, either figure 2A or
2B will be used. Fill in the required information, and then select “Scan” to begin the search routine.
