After re-directing the antenna, you must rescan channels.
NOTE: Due to Tiffin Motorhomes’ commitment to continuous research and development, some units may also contain televisions manufactured by other companies (e.g. Panasonic, Samsung, etc.). Please refer to the information in your Owner’s Information Package on setup for these brands.
Television Satellite Dish (Optional)
The RV may be equipped with an optional in-motion TV satellite dish control system (Figure 6-1) to permit access to satellite television. If so, the satellite will be equipped with a high definition Direct TV receiver.
If your motorhome is equipped with an optional satellite dish it is capable of receiving High Definition (HD) satellite signal from Dish Network. However, you must subscribe to HD service and install a HD receiver. Factory installed satellite dishes must have a HD receiver in order to obtain a clear picture. Your satellite dish will not receive High Definition programming from Direct TV; however, it is capable of receiving standard definition programming from Direct TV’s Satellite 101.
Follow the directions in the Owner’s Manual for this dishcontrol mechanism to obtain the best orientation of the satellite dish for desired television reception.
To set up your satellite receiver for Dish Network
1. Remove the satellite dome cover on top of the motorhome by releasing the screws around the dome.
2. Change dish settings to 4-7-8 by adjusting the dipswitches to the DOWN position (8 is already in the DOWN position).
3. Re-install the dome.
On the Dish remote:
1. Press MENU.
2. Press the no. 6 button.
3. Press the no. 1 button.
4. Press the no. 1 button again.
This will bring up the Dish screen. Go to the right-hand column where it says “CHECK SWITCH.”
Once this is done, EXIT the system, then press 0-0-0 to download the information.
Television Sets
Your motorhome is High Definition (HD) ready and is capable of receiving channels that are broadcasting in High Definition.
In order to receive a clear picture from your satellite dish, you must subscribe to high definition (HD) service. Your Allegro RED is equipped with an automatic switching box that allows you to easily change between TV input modes.
To change the mode of your television, press INPUT on your remote control. Then, select TV, Blu-ray, or Satellite, and press OK.
NOTE: The booster must be “on” for ANT (a green light will appear) and “off ” for the cable. |
Detailed operation of the televisions is provided in the accompanying owner’s manuals found in the Owner’s Information Package included with the motorhome.
INFRARED REPEATER
The Allegro RED features an infrared repeater which enables the owner to utilize the satellite remote control from various areas of the coach. An infrared repeater will be located in the bedroom and by the overhead TV located in the driver’s area. If your Allegro RED has the optional outside entertainment system, this feature will be located on it also.
To utilize the infrared repeater, locate the one inside the cabinet that contains the DVD player. Peel the adhesive backing from the back of the infrared repeater and line the infrared repeater against the satellite receiver’s infrared repeater. This will allow the infrared repeater to operate when the satellite remote control is directed toward the infrared repeater situated next to the TV. You will now have the convenience of changing the satellite receiver channels from various areas of the coach.
NOTE: The infrared repeater will not work with a Dish Network receiver.
