®
The following instructions explain how to install and operate the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit on a
TracVision M3DX system.
The Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit allows DIRECTV HDTV subscribers to enjoy the Ku-band portion of
the overall high-definition (HD) programming package and switch automatically among the
DIRECTV 101, 110, and 119 satellites when using a DIRECTV H21-200 or H20-600 receiver.

Installing the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch
Kit
This section explains how to install the Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch Kit. These instructions require
additional/alternate installation steps than those
specified in the TracVision Installation Guide.
These instructions supersede the TracVision
installation and operation instructions where
applicable.
Step 1 - Check for Flash Wizard Updates
You need to check for flash file updates to ensure
you have the most current software available (see
Figure 1). Follow the Flash Update Wizard’s
onscreen instructions to check for updates. This
procedure requires a PC with the latest version of
the KVH Flash Update Wizard installed and an
internet connection.
NOTE: Refer to the Flash Update Wizard’s Help file
for details on checking for updates.
Step 2 - Flash the System Boards
Follow the Flash Update Wizard’s onscreen
instructions to flash the TracVision system’s
main board, RF board, and interface box board.
NOTE: Refer to the Flash Update Wizard’s Help file
for details on flashing the system.

Step 3 - Connect the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit
Follow the steps below to connect the
Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit and a DIRECTV H21200/H20-600 receiver.

b. Connect the DB9-end of the data cable (B) to
the “RS232” connector on the interface box.
Connect the other end to the “Control
Output” connector on the Tri-Sat

Receiver Installation
Be sure to follow these guidelines when installing
the receiver.
•
The Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit is
compatible only with DIRECTV
model H21 receivers that have
manufacturer ID 200 and DIRECTV
model H20 receivers that have
manufacturer ID 600.
TIP: Model and manufacturer ID information is
printed on the back of the receiver.
•
•
The DIRECTV H21-200 or H20-600
receiver must be configured as an
“Oval, 3, LNB” dish type. Refer to the
receiver manual for configuration
instructions.
Upon startup, the receiver might take
up to 30 minutes or more to fully load
the program guide for all three
DIRECTV satellites. Be sure to only
select channels carried on the 101
satellite until the program guide is
fully loaded.
Step 4 - Reset the System (if necessary)

Step 5 - Set Up the System
Use the interface box buttons and the flowchart
in Figure 5 to set up the system for Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch use.
Step 6 - Test the System
Now you need to test the system to ensure
proper operation.
NOTE: Do not use the interface box buttons to change
satellites or attempt change satellites at the receiver’s
signal strength screen; the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch does
not detect changes at that screen. For complete
operation instructions, see “Using the Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch Kit” on page 6.
a. Select channel 490 using the Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver’s remote.
Verify that the TV screen displays the test
channel text at the bottom of the screen and
the interface box status screen indicates “TriSat Auto Mode” and the appropriate
DIRECTV satellite (see Figure 6).
b. Repeat this procedure for each channel listed
in Figure 6.

Switching Satellites
When the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit is coupled with
a DIRECTV H21-200 or H20-600 receiver, you do
not need to press buttons on the interface box to
change satellites; the antenna automatically
switches among the Ku-band portion of the
DIRECTV 101, 110, and 119 satellites as you
change channels using the receiver’s remote. You
do not need to press any interface box buttons to
change channels.
The interface box status screen displays the
currently tracked satellite and indicates the
antenna is in “Tri-Sat Auto Mode” (see Figure 7).
NOTE: The receiver might take up to 30 seconds to
display video when changing channels, switching
between satellites, and/or switching between
standard-definition and high-definition channels.
TIP: For your convenience, KVH lists the DIRECTV
Ku-band HDTV channels, and the DIRECTV
satellites that carry them, on the web at
www.kvh.com/HDTV. Since DIRECTV changes its
channel lineup frequently, KVH can e-mail updates to
you whenever the HDTV lineup changes. Register for
this free service when you visit the website for the first
time.

Using the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit with Multiple
Receivers
Since the antenna can only track one satellite at a
time, all receivers can only view channels carried
by the currently tracked satellite. Therefore,
switching channels on one Tri-Sat AutoSwitchequipped receiver might cause televisions
connected to other receivers to display different
programming, no programming, or an error
message. TV viewers can simply change the
channel until they select a channel carried by the
new satellite, or they can use any Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver to switch back to
the original satellite.
NOTE: Only Tri-Sat AutoSwitch-equipped
DIRECTV H21-200 and H20-600 receivers control
satellite selection. Other receiver models and
additional DIRECTV H21-200 and H20-600
receivers without a mated Tri-Sat AutoSwitch cannot
control satellite selection, but they can change
channels on the currently selected satellite.
Using the Tri-Sat AutoSwitch Kit with Additional TriSat AutoSwitch-equipped DIRECTV H21-200 or H20600 Receivers
The Tri-Sat AutoSwitch enables automatic
satellite switching for one DIRECTV H21-200 or
H20-600 receiver. However, when two or more
Tri-Sat AutoSwitches are installed, any Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver can control
satellite selection. The last Tri-Sat AutoSwitchequipped receiver to change satellites controls
satellite selection until another Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch-equipped receiver changes satellites.
