If you are installing the HD Satellite Interface as an add-on to a previously installed
Winegard Satellite Antenna, you should install the software update to your satellite antenna
first, then proceed with cable and HD Satellite Interface installation.
Refer to 3.7 Install
Software Update with Clone Box for instructions.
3. Route Cables (If Necessary)
If your Winegard Satellite System on your roof came installed with the power/data cable,
or if your coach was pre-wired for a Winegard Satellite System and HD Interface, you may
proceed to the next step. If your system was wired using only the red/black power wire,
you must route the new 30’ power/data cable included.
If you are replacing the current power wire, remove the sealant and 8 screws from the roof
top cable entry plate using the drill and 5/16” nut driver bit and discard. If not already
done, remove the dome from the antenna by removing the eight dome screws with a Phil
-
lips head screwdriver. Do not lose dome screws!
Trace the current power wire to the Heyco Connector going into base. Remove the large
nut, Heyco Connector, and small nut inside base using the 3/4” wrench or crescent wrench
and discard.
See Figure 3.
.
Locate the green connector that connects the power wire to the electronics board. Using a
small flat head screwdriver, unscrew the 2 side screws and disconnect from board.
Unscrew top two screws and remove connector from cable. Do not lose green connector!
Cut wire ties and pull power cable out of dome.
Locate end of new power/data cable with
LONGER
exposed data cable. Route this end
of the power/data cable through power wire hole. With top screws facing up, insert power
wire into saved green connector and screw down top screws to secure.
See Figure 3.
.
Plug green connector into power connector on electronics board. Screw in 2 side screws
to fasten. Do not connect data cable yet if software update must be done. Pull slack out
of cable from outside base, and push new Heyco connector into base. Pull on Heyco to be
sure it is secure. Fasten cable to base cleats or wire tie holders using wire ties.
Route power/data cable through existing roof hole and into Interface/Receiver location.
You may want to attach new cable to old power cable using electrical tape to help pull wire
through. If not already done from a previous installation, route primary coax into hole to
receiver as well. If necessary, route second coax to location.
Be sure to verify your
previously installed antenna’s
wiring. You may be able to
save installation time if it
already includes the data
cable.
Figure 3.
One end of the power/
data cable has a longer data
cable. Use the longer end
inside of the dome and short
end inside of the RV.
Be sure loose cables
inside of dome will not inter-
fere with dish LNB.
