Read the suffix: i6, i6P, i6PE and i6W have separate downloads. WorldView applies to i6W; do not infer it from an unmarked i6.
How it connects
- i6 antenna RF1 feed
- Intellian ACU Configured satellite service
- TV receiver
The i6 antenna connects through its control unit to a configured satellite TV receiver. Some Dish installations add an Intellian MIM for switching. Antenna tracking does not itself confirm channel authorization.
Lights and messages
- Compare ACU tracking status with a free channel and an affected subscribed channel. If only Dish switching fails, note the MIM Master indicator.
A light is one clue, not a complete diagnosis. Match the indicator’s label and the on-screen message.
Before buying parts
- i6W WorldView LNB, i6P auto-skew and the Dish MIM serve different configurations. Do not buy a generic LNB, MIM or splitter until variant, provider and receiver compatibility are confirmed.
These are compatibility notes and official reference links. Confirm the fault and exact part before buying.
Model-specific parts: start with the official source
