RECEIVER INFORMATION NONSKEWABLE Open Faced mounts. If your satellite receiver is a Dish 500 or Dish Pro and you remove it from your home to your RV, you will need to perform a “Check Switch” while the nonskewable dish is in the STOWED POSITION. Your screen upon completion of the “Check Switch” should have 8 X’s in the check boxes meaning that the “Check Switch” failed. This procedure must be accomplished before you “FIND” satellite. Failure to do so will result in improper operati

EMERGENCY STOW Stowing the dish when all else fails. If you are able to go onto the roof 1. Unplug the “Green” 9 pin connector from the back of the NOMAD 2. This will release “dynamic braking” that holds the mount in position. The mount may now be rotated manually. 2. Go to the roof where you can carefully apply a slight continuous amount of force to move the dish into an acceptable position for traveling. In Azimuth, rotate the mount in a counter clock wise direction to move to t
