FEATURES:
Infrared Remote Control. Direct access satellites are A, D, F, G, M, S, T and W for Cband, K and Z for Ku (for Ku-band you will need an external C/Ku switch). Parental Locks via the Menu however a password will be needed to defeat/remove them. 1 set of RCA Audio / Video output jacks and 1 set of RCA RCA Audio / Video input jacks and a 70 Mhz Loop output/input. Receives stereo audio only on the VC channels. No Favorite Channel capability but
audio frequency changes can be stored. Also has auto-peak for dish position and skew (they call it polarity though). There was an option available called the Chaparral Remote Eye. This was a transmiter for using the remote

PROGRAMMING A SATELLITE

• If you start with the receiver on the correct location of the new satellite. Press the TUNING MODE button one time. You will see DISH POSITION and SIGNAL STRENGTH displayed on the screen.
• On your remote control, press the SATELLITE button then letter and number of the satellite. Use the Channel UP or DOWN button to locate a picture, if needed, press the AUTOTUNE button to automatically adjust the
  dish position and skew (polarity) When the beep sounds and the picture has improved, use the tuning tool (or a toothpick), and press the recessed STORE button to save the satellite at this position. When reprogramming
  satellites you have 5 seconds to press the store button or the dish will move to the old stored position, if the dish moves, press the UP or DOWN tuning arrow once and the dish will stop. If the dish moved too far from
  where you started, use the UP or DOWN tuning arrows to adjust the dish position back).
• Press VIEW or the TUNING MODE button until you return to the normal
  viewing mode.

RENAME A SATELLITE
As an example we'll rename S3 to W3.

• Start with the receiver on S3/5, confirm the channel as Univision. Press the TUNING MODE button one time. You will see DISH POSITION and SIGNAL STRENGTH displayed on the screen.
• On your remote control, press the SATELLITE button then W, then 3. Use the tuning tool (or a toothpick), and press the recessed STORE button to save G9 at this position. On most models you will get the message "TUNING VALUE STORED" to confirm it is stored. (when reprogramming satellites you have 5 seconds to press the store button or the dish will move to the old stored position, if the dish moves, press the UP or DOWN tuning arrow once and the dish will stop. If the dish moved too far from where you started, use the UP or DOWN tuning arrows to adjust the dish position back).
• Press VIEW or the TUNING MODE button until you return to the normal viewing mode.

SKEW ADJUSTMENTS (This receiver refers to skew as polarity):

Press the TUNING MODE button until POLARITY is displayed on the screen. Press the AUTOTUNE button and wait for the beep. The skew can be adjusted manually rather that automatically by using the TUNING UP or DOWN buttons
while in polarity mode. Press STORE if you wish to keep the adjustment.
