Pre installation
Introduction
Tools Required
Congratulations!
You have selected the Winegard
TRAV’LER Automatic Multi-Satellite
TV Antenna. The TRAV’LER will
deliver the ability to view up to five
satellites at the same time with
unmatched signal strength, the lowest
travel height on the market, maximum
HD capabilities and easy to use
functionality– just like you get at
home.
This course provides important
information on the installation and
operation of your Satellite Interface
Box. After completing this course, you
will be able to understand the steps
involved in installing and operating
TRAV’LER antennas.

Safety
Unpacking Unit
Install only in dry conditions. DO NOT
attempt to install this system in the rain
or under any wet conditions. Moisture
may affect electronics and void your
warranty!
For best performance and to reduce
signal acquisition time, park the vehicle
on a level surface, free of obstructions
such as trees or large buildings.
Before beginning the installation of the satellite dish system, note these important recommendations.
Let’s get started with the installation.
Using a knife or sharp object, cut open the cardboard
box. Use caution when opening the box, taking care
not to cut the unit.
Remove the unit and all packing material from the
cardboard box. Use two people when removing the
unit.
Do not attempt to paint the TRAV’LER. Painting

The minimum roof space required for the TRAV’LER is 43″L x 24″W. The operational space
requires that no obstructions taller than 8 inches be mounted within 3 feet of the base.
The unit must be level for best
operation.
Make sure that the location
offers enough support to attach
the TRAV’LER securely.
Mount
Parallel to
Center line
of Coach
Using the level, locate a level spot on the RV roof for installation.
Check with your RV dealer or manufacturer, your RV may be pre-wired or have a reinforced
area for this system, DO NOT install this unit on an arch that will create a gap larger than
3/16″between the RV roof and the base (as shown in the graphic.)
The base is marked “FRONT” and “BACK”. Be sure “FRONT” faces the FRONT of the RV.
Level the base of the satellite unit front to back and side to side. The more level the base is, the
faster it will be to locate the correct satellite. An unleveled base may also prevent the unit from
acquiring a satellite signal.

Roof Location Requirements
65
It is important to find a location on the roof that provides enough space for the TRAV’LER
antenna to operate. The TRAV’LER antenna has a front and a back and must be mounted
correctly to avoid damage to the antenna or to the coach. The base for the TRAV’LER unit is
marked FRONT and BACK.
Be sure there are no obstructions in close range to where the satellite unit will be installed. Use
the provided graphic and measure to ensure adequate space between the obstruction and the
satellite unit. The TRAV’LER antenna must be mounted parallel to the center line of the coach.
66
TRAV’LER Mount Installation
Verify the “FRONT” of the transition plate is facing the front of the vehicle then place the
mount on the roof where you plan to install it. Mark through the screw holes on the base so you
can see them on the roof. Then move the mount out of the installation area.
Use a solid bead of sealant to connect
these marks in the shape of the base.
Carefully place the TRAV’LER back
onto the markings/sealant and screw it
to the roof. Check with your vehicle
manufacturer for any special screw
requirements before using the supplied
screws.
Run a solid bead of sealant around the
OUTSIDE of the transition plate,
making sure to cover each screw head.
Be careful not to
g
et an
y
sealant above
this lip.
The mount comes pre-attached to the transition plate. It is important not to seal the mount to the
transition plate so the unit can be removed from the plate without breaking the sealant.
Decide where the wires will enter the vehicle. One coaxial cable per receiver and a control cable
will need to be run into the vehicle.
Warning: Do not run the wires through the gray area shown on this graphic: anything in
the gray area will interfere with the operation of the TRAV’LER antenna and may cause
damage to the object or the antenna.
67
Cable Entry Plate Installation
Decide the best location for the cables to enter the vehicle.
You will need to run:
A coaxial directly to each receiver location.
A control cable to the Internal Display unit.
Drill a hole in the roof and push the required
wires through. (Installations for multiple receivers
may require a larger hole or multiple holes as each
receiver requires a dedicated coax cable.) See the
receiver manual for wiring details.
Make all the necessary connections to the receiver. For best operation, use the coax ports on the unit
in order. (Port “A” for the main receiver, Port “B” for a secondary, etc.)
Connect the coax cable from the dish to the “SATELLITE IN” on the rear of the receiver.
If connecting a second receiver, feed the opposite end of the coax cable through the hole
in the roof and connect it to the “SATELLITE IN” on the rear of the secondary receiver
in the vehicle.
Cable Installation
Attach the TRAV’LER control cable to the
TRAV’LER interface box as shown in the
graphic.
Attach the output cable from the power
supply to the TRAV’LER interface box.
Then, plug the power supply into a 110 AC
outlet.
Finally connect a separate coaxial cable to
each of the receivers being used with the
TRAV’LER Automatic Satellite Dish.
68
After completing the wiring, return to the roof.
Follow the steps listed below.
Apply approved sealant around the outer
edge of the hole.
Use the cable-entry plate and position it over
the hole and cables.
Use the appropriate number of screws to
secure the plate to the roof.
Apply sealant around the perimeter of the
plate and over the screws.
69
Once the wires are run and the sealant has started to cure:
Press the POWER button and hold for one second to turn the TRAV’LER interface box on.
Then press ENTER and hold for two seconds or until the unit enters the menu mode.
Press SELECT until the asterisk is on “Yes”
and press ENTER to go into the user menu.
TRAV’LER®Interface Box
Press the SELECT button to move the asterisk to “installation” and press ENTER.
When asked to provide a code, press ENTER four times, to enter 0000 for the code.
Press SELECT to move the asterisk to “Raise Antenna” and press ENTER. The TRAV’LER will
raise about half way up and make it possible to attach the reflector.
If the LED displays an “EL MOTOR STALL” this is normal and the reflector is ready to be
installed. This message is used to verify that the antenna has raised completely to the upper limit.
70
WARNING: Pay attention to these pinch points as the antenna raises.
Attach the reflector to the mounting
bracket, using the nuts and bolts
provided.
Pinch Points
Press POWER to stow the antenna to the travel position.
Once the antenna is stowed, the power will shut off.
