Question:

How do I connect a multi-room satellite box?

 

Answer:

To connect a multi-room satellite box, follow these steps:

 

Connect the coax (RF) line carrying the incoming signal to the ANT In Coax (RF) input on your TV.

Run an Auto Program channel scan with the antenna selection set to Air. This should acquire the incoming signal from the multi-room box. Note: You can find the Auto Program function in the Channel section of the Main Menu.

Tune your TV to your service provider's pre-assigned channel.

If the scan on Air does not acquire the incoming signal, try rescanning with the antenna set to Cable instead.
