Appendix E

EchoStar Commissioning

Procedure

If you have purchased a DISH Network system, there is a

chance that your EchoStar IRD will fail to acquire the satellite

when you first activate it. This has been known to happen in

IRDs that have not been commissioned within several months

of their manufacture. The following process is a manual

method of acquiring the satellite for the first time so that the

IRD can download the most up-to-date satellite and

programming data, allowing it to automatically acquire the

satellite from then on.

Please refer to your EchoStar IRD user manual for complete

instructions on the IRD, the remote control, and the command

screens.
