Vu qube 2000 manual#
Please read this entire manual before beginning the installation. Failure to use one of these brackets will void the product warranty. This VuQube must be installed with a King Controls bracket MB100, MB101 or MB200. See the ANTENNA CONFIGURATION section in this manual for specific instructions. If you also receive your local channels from DIRECTV’s 119 satellite or if you subscribe to Dish Network ® or Bell TV programming, you must re-configure the antenna to work with your satellite service.ĭoing this will allow the VuQube to lock on the correct satellites to receive your programming and also enable automatic satellite switching via the receiver’s remote control for multi-satellite service.Īntenna configuration is a one time procedure that MUST BE COMPLETED before using your VuQube antenna. If your VuQube does not operate as outlined in this manual please call King Controls at (800) 982-9920 or visit our website at This VuQube is factory pre-set for DIRECTV ® standard digital programming broadcast from the 101° W satellite. The information in this manual was accurate at the time of printing. In that case, both of these systems work perfectly well with a DVR since all of the DirecTV SD programming comes from only one satellite.The satellite TV market is expanding and changing. Since neiter VuQube nor the Carryout can receive the DirecTV HD signal we will speak of SD programming only. That is something for me to do if winter ever goes away. They can work one day and not the next, depending on when Dish updates the firmware.Īs for DirecTV, I have not personally tested DVR use on either antenna. Other Dish receivers may work fine and they may not. The Vip211k is supposed to be the only receiver "officially" supported by Dish for RV use. The receiver is DVR ready (you supply the USB hard drive) but being a single tuner device, you can not record one channel and watch another one.

Both work very nicely with that receiver. I have used the Dish Vip211K receiver with both the Carryout and V2000. I personally lean towards the Carryout, only because of the slightly better ( and I do mean slightly) signal levels I normally see when comparing the two antennas side by side. Looking at the differences between the two units there is VERY little reason to choose one antenna before the other. The stumbling block with most Dish Network receivers attached to a "dome" is getting the "Check Switch routine" completed properly in the Dish receiver. This issue can cause unexpected results, depending on which receiver and which firmare it is. That being said, if you are operating a dual tuner receiver (which is MOST DVRs), only one tuner will control which satellite is being watched. Both the VuQube2000 and Carryout WILL work with a DVR.
