The receiver may not be 

connected to an active broadband 

Internet connection.

• You must connect the receiver to an active broadband 

Internet connection at all times. If you install two or more 

receivers, you must connect each receiver to an active  

connection at all times.

• Call the Customer Service Center at 1-800-333-DISH 

(3474) for help checking the credit limit and/or to get 

authorization to make a purchase.

022

The receiver may not have 

received authorization for 

programming yet. The satellite 

dish may have moved so that it is 

no longer picking up the satellite 

signal. The cable connections 

may have loosened or have 

moisture inside. There may be an 

interruption of the satellite signal.

• If you have authorized the receiver, wait a few minutes to 

see if the message is removed. Make sure that all required 

cables are in place, and check that all cable connections 

are tight and dry (for outdoor cables).

• Make sure that the satellite dish has a clear line of sight to 

the satellite. Check whether branches or leaves have 

grown into the line of sight.

• Check that the Signal Strength bar in the Point Dish 

screen is green and displays the word Locked. If not, 

contact your installer to re-aim the satellite dish. If you 

have not authorized the receiver, call the Customer 

Service Center at 1-800-333-DISH (3474) for help.

026

The receiver may have 

temporarily lost the satellite signal.

• Wait a few minutes to see if the message is removed. 

Make sure that all required cables are in place, and check 

that all cable connections are tight and dry (for outdoor 

cables).

• Make sure that the satellite dish has a clear line of sight to 

the satellite. Check whether branches or leaves have 

grown into the line of sight.

• Check that the Signal Strength bar in the Point Dish 

screen is green and displays the word Locked. If not, 

contact your installer to re-aim the satellite dish.

028

The receiver may need to get new 

software before you can use it to 

order Pay-Per-View programs.

Turn the receiver off. Doing this allows the receiver to 

download new software via the satellite signal. The 

download may take several minutes; do not disturb or unplug 

the receiver during this time. When the download is done, 

you will be able to use it to order Pay-Per-View programs.

059

You may have tried to close an 

installation menu without having 

done the Check Switch test.

If your setup includes a multi-dish switch, you must run the 

Check Switch test.

060

You may have aimed the satellite 

dish at one satellite, but selected 

the option for another satellite on 

the Point Dish screen.

• Make sure that you have selected the option for the right 

satellite on the Point Dish screen.

• Make sure that the cable(s) for the satellite you have 

selected are connected to the LNBF that receives signals 

from that satellite. Re-aim the satellite dish at the right 

satellite.

061

The receiver is downloading 

current software.

It is very important for the receiver to get the latest software 

to function properly. The download may take several 

minutes. Do not disturb or unplug the receiver during this 

time.

074

The receiver gives you three 

chances to enter the correct 

password. If you fail to do so, the 

receiver “times out” and will not 

allow you to try again for several 

minutes.

Wait a few minutes and then try again to enter the password.

Note:

 The “time out” feature is designed to prevent someone 

from trying password after password until he or she happens 

to guess the right one and so gains unauthorized access to 

the receiver.
