Guide for using DIRECTV SWM Technology with Winegard Mobile Satellite TV Antennas Guide for using DIRECTV SWM Technology with Winegard Mobile Satellite TV Antennas

Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas operate with Multi-switch technology and require separate accessories to

operate with DIRECTV Single Wire Multi-switch (SWM) only technology receivers. For an up-to-date list of DIRECTV

DVR and non-DVR receiver models that are only compatible with SWM technology, visit www.winegard.com/directv.

This website also lists Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas that are compatible with DIRECTV. If unsure of your

receiver model, check the back of the receiver or the inside front door of the smart card slot.

Winegard mobile satellite TV antennas require separate accessories to operate

with DIRECTV SWM only technology receivers. For proper SWM operation

with Winegard satellite TV antennas, the SWM8, DIRECTV PI-28 or PI-29

power supply, and DIRECTV approved splitter (typically 2, 4, or 8 port) must be

used. Failure to use this equipment may cause issues with your system.

The DIRECTV power inserter PI-28 or PI-29 may damage a DIRECTV receiver

if improperly connected in the system. The SWM output of the power inserter

should never be directly applied to the input of a receiver. During installation,

verify all wiring before applying power to the power inserter.

DIRECTV SWM8 allows the use of up to eight tuners with a Winegard satellite antenna. Count the tuners in your SWM

installation to check that there are less than or equal to eight tuners being used with SWM8.

Keep in mind the following when counting the number of tuners:

• A non-DVR receiver counts as one tuner.

• A DVR receiver has dual tuners and counts as two tuners (even though only one coaxial cable is needed to

connect to a DVR receiver). The exception is the HR34 DVR receiver, which has five tuners and counts as five

tuners when calculating tuners for a SWM installation.

Number of non-DVR receivers + 2 x Number of DVR receivers = Total tuners for SWM8 installation

Example

Two non-DVR receivers and three DVR receivers are being used for a SWM8 installation.

2 non-DVR receivers + 2 x 3 DVR receivers = 8 total tuners for SWM installation

Never use B-Band converters

with SWM8.

Do not use a DIRECTV PI-21 power

inserter with a SWM8. Use a DIRECTV

power inserter PI-28 or PI-29.

Never power on all receivers at

once. Sequentially power receivers

since every receiver must get a

SWM assignment.

*DIRECTV primary 101 programming only. Toggling to alternate satellites is not supported.

**Availability of channels on Satellites 110 and 119 is dependent upon the satellite port to which Port C of the TRAV’LER interface is connected.

***Each antenna will see satellites as listed in the above table. Note that additional parts (not included) are needed for the combined setup of the

TRAV’LER antenna and domed antenna with SWM technology.
