Winegard WB-2000, Installation & Operation Manual

A confirmation message will appear.  The satellite antenna will reset and begin its search 

routine for satellite 91°W .  Your satellite antenna is now set for Bell ExpressVU program-

ming.  Each time your power on the Satellite Interface, the satellite antenna will locate Bell 

ExpressVU programming.

Configure Bell ExpressVU Receiver

In order to use the satellite antenna in automatic mode, the Bell ExpressVU must be config

-

ured with the proper 

switch 

installed.

The Bell ExpressVU switch tells the receiver which satellite to look at, 

depending which channel the receiver is tuned to.

If you use your receiver in your RV only, you should only have to run the 

“Check Switch” test during the initial installation.

If you move your Receiver between your RV and your home, you must run the 

“Check Switch” test each time you move your receiver.  For example, if your 

receiver is in your home and you move it to your RV, you must run the check 

switch test once your RV’s satellite system is on signal.  If you move your 

receiver from your RV to your home, you should run the check switch after you 

have connected your receiver to your home antenna.  Refer to your receiver 

manual for more information.

Install the Satellite Switch

For 

most 

Bell ExpressVU receivers, the following commands will help you navigate to 

the correct menu locations.  If you need help reaching the following menu’s, refer to your 

receiver’s manual.

The Bell ExpressVU 

switch

 is a receiver setting, 

not a physical part.

Power on your satellite receiver and press 

[POWER] 

on the Satellite 

Interface.

The antenna will begin its search routine and lock on to and come to rest on

satellite 91°W after some satellite verification.  

If you have an in-motion system, the antenna will enter “tracking” mode for 

7 minutes after locking on to the signal.  After 7 minutes, the dish will enter

sleep mode.  For best results, wait until the unit is in sleep mode to run the

check switch test.

You now have 6 minutes to run the check switch test.

Press the “Menu” button on the Bell ExpressVU remote control.

Select “System Setup” option “6”.

Select “Installation”, option “1”.

If you will install a 

second receiver, you should 

connect the secondary 

receiver to the primary coax 

and run the switch test.  Af-

ter test is complete, connect 

the receiver to secondary 

coax at receiver’s perma-

nent location.
