Dish receiver vip222k manualBy Michael Roennevig VIP 222K, a satellite set-top receiver box from dish network, user-friendly and simple to set up. Even if you lack an understanding of electrical equipment or TV systems, you should not have too many problems installing and running the box. This allows you to watch one satellite channel while recording it at the same time. Connect one end of the coaxialcable to the satellite socket on the wall and the other end to the In port of the signal separator. Connect one coaxial cable to each of the two Out ports of the separator and connect the other end to the port, which is two satellites on the back of the receiver. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI out port on the back of the receiver and the other end to the port that is theHDMI on the back of the TV. If your TV is not compatible with HDMI, you must use a component cable. Connect one end of the phone line cable to the phone socket on the wall and the other end to the phone on the port on the back of the receiver. You can also use an Ethernet cable to connect the receiver to a broadband modem. While recipients work without a phone line orInternet connection, DISH Network recommends that you stay connected to keep important listener data up to date and access paid content per view. Connect all equipment to the power supply and use the remote control on the TV to select input from the satellite. How to do this depends on the manufacture and model of the television.

Satellite Dish Ground Clamp Antenna Discharge Device In grounding dorsal (NEC section)electrical service equipment ground electrode system (NEC Art. 250, Part H), the satellite dish coaxial cable works the receiver using only the type of power indicated on the marking label. Grab the power plug, not the cord, and remove the receiver power cord. The power plug must be easily accessible so that the equipment can be easily disconnected from AC power. Do notoverload wall outlets or extension cords. This can lead to the risk of fire or electric shock. Do not insert any kind of object into the receiver through the opening because the object can touch dangerous voltage points or shorten the part. This can lead to fire or electric shock. Do not find antennas near overhead lights or power circuits, or antennas that may fall into these power linesor circuits. When installing antennas, be careful not to touch these power lines or circuits because contact with them can be fatal. Do not service the receiver directly, as opening or removing the cover may expose you to dangerous voltages. See all services to an authorized service representative. Proper management of equipment always carefully handle satellite receivers.Excessive shock and vibration can damage the hard drive. Remove the receiver from the AC power outlet before cleaning. Always turn off the receiver, unplug it and let it sit for at least 30 seconds before moving. The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the receiver manufacturer voids the limited warranty. Do not place the receiver in an enclosure (e.g. cabinet)without proper ventilation. Do not stack the receiver on top of or under other electronic devices as it may cause heat accumulation and vibration. Do not install the water in areas where the temperature may be less than 40 F or above 113 F. If the receiver is cold to the touch, do not connect immediately. Do not remove it from room temperature for at least 45 minutes beforeconnecting it. Use outlets that contain surge suppression or ground failure protection. If an electrical storm or receiver is left unattended and has not been used for a long time, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, disconnect the line between the receiver and the antenna, and disconnect the telephone line. This provides additional protection against damage caused bylightning or power line surges. On some TVs, a fixed image for a long time can permanently be pinned to the screen.

Satellite TV use satellites in fixed orbits over Earth to provide television and audio programming for incoming satellite television. This type of orbit allows satellites to remain aligned in a place on the Earth's surface. After thesatellite dish is aimed at the satellite, it is not needed for the dish to move to follow it. Rain and snow fade heavy rain, snow, or dense cloud cover can reduce satellite signals, which can interfere with programming services. Service is returned after weather conditions have elapsed. Aiming at the satellite dish to get the strongest signal during installation will help prevent rain andsnow from interfering with the signal. Twice a year of solar interference, the sun moves into Earth orbit to the position behind the Dish Network satellite. This event occurs for several days at the beginning of spring and the beginning of autumn and lasts several minutes. You will not be able to view the program on the DISH network for this short period of time. When the sun movesbehind the satellite, the program reappears. This is an inevitable natural event and has a negative impact on many satellite program providers. 6 14 Reasons to connect to a phone line or broadband Why connect to a phone line or broadband Satellite receiver features a standard phone jack that you use to connect to an active phone line.

Satellite receiver This dual tuner satellite receiver can watch standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) DISH networkprogramming on two TVs, or you can watch aerial front digital/HD broadcasts on nearby HDTV (optional aerial tuner module). A nearby TV (TV1) connects to an HDTV to watch SD and HD DISH network programming and over-the-air digital/HD broadcasts (along with modules). Programming from the receiver is delivered to a nearby TV using a short audio/video cable. RemoteTV(s) (TV2) connects to SDTV to watch SD and down converted HD broadcasts. Programming from the receiver is typically passed to the remote TV using a conventional home coaxial cable. Two remote controls are included in the new remote control. Remote Control 1 - Infrared (IR) remote control control programming for nearby TV (TV1). This remote control is labeled with asimilar indication of the receiver output connection and a green number 1 that matches the menu on a nearby TV. Remote Control 2 - Ultra-high-power pro (UHF Pro) remote control to control programming on a remote TV (TV2). This remote control is labeled with a blue number 2 that matches the menu on the remote TV with a similar indication of the receiver output connection.The remote control must be set up to operate the receiver (see page 57). The 10 dual and single-mode satellite receivers include two operating modes: dual and single. These modes let you choose how you want to watch your favorite shows, increasing your entertainment options. While in dual mode, you can use this dual tuner satellite receiver to watch different programmingfrom two separate locations: a TV program close to the receiver is delivered to the TV near the receiver using a short audio/video cable and controlled using remote control 1. Nearby TV is also called TV1. The receiver's remote TV programming is passed to the TV in another room using an existing home coaxial cable and controlled using Remote Control 2. 18 Satellite receiversdual and single mode video displayed on remote TV are always in standard definition (SD). High-definition satellite programming (for example, on channels displaying HD displays) can be seen on a remote TV. However, these programs are converted down to watch on a remote TV. The front panel mode light lights up and the menus on both TVs and other screens display dualmode (shown below), so you can see that the receiver is in dual mode. 11 19-chapter-2 dual and single-mode offers all connected TVs unique features of dual tuner receivers such as picture-in-picture (PIP). A single mode provides the same programming for all TVs connected to a satellite receiver and can be controlled by remote control. The format of programming displayed onthe remote TV is standard definition (SD). High definition (HD) is only displayed on nearby TVs. High-definition programming (such as channels displaying HD displays) can be seen from any TV location. However, these programs are converted down to watch on a remote TV. The front panel mode light lights up and displays a single mode (shown below) on the menus and otherscreens on both TVs, so you know you're in single mode. 12 20 satellite receivers put satellite receivers in single or dual mode by pressing the front panel mode button to switch between remote control dual mode and single mode.

Point the remote control directly at the receiver without obscuring the view. Remote Control 1 controls receivers and other devices programmed to operate using IR signals. This remote control is identified by the green number 1 at the bottom of the remote control. Remote Control 2 uses uhf pro signals to control the TV2 menu forremote TVs in dual mode. Control the satellite receiver in a single mode. UHF Pro signals travel long distances and pass through walls and other solid objects. To control the receiver using remote control 2, the remote control antenna must be attached to the receiver back panel (see page 15). Remote Control 2 uses an IR signal to work with other devices programmed with theremote control. If there are no objects that are obscuring the field of view, point directly to the remote control on these devices. This remote control is identified by the blue number 2 at the bottom of the remote control. 14 22 satellite receiver Remote control remote control battery remote control is provided with 4 AAA batteries.
