  3. TV · HDMI
Simplified signal path, not an installation or rewiring diagram. Follow the linked manual for power connections, grounding and your exact hardware revision.

Keep the existing SWM installation and power arrangement. A simplified TV path is not a wiring plan for moving the receiver to another wall outlet.

Lights and messages

  • Use the receiver’s on-screen message with its power indicator. A lit receiver alone does not establish satellite reception.
  • 771 concerns satellite communication. Record whether menus still appear, then use the 771 guide.

A light is one clue, not a complete diagnosis. Match the indicator’s label and the on-screen message.

Before buying parts

  • Use the Genie remote compatibility instructions and have DIRECTV confirm a replacement power supply or satellite-network part for HR54.
