Ur dish remote and press the menu button. Then press the #'s 6-1-1. This is ur check switch screen. Do a check switch. Let me know if this helps, if not we can try something else. -

If I chose to add a second tv to this location to use the dual receiver. Can I split off of the incoming cable to use it in a new room, will this work? -

U can add a 2nd tv, but u can't split the main line. A splitter will mess it up. U can run a wire from the receiver to a 2nd tv and that will mirror that tv. If u do that run the wire from the tv in on the back of the receiver to the 2nd tv. If u do this I'll go step by step with u. Just let me know shelly. -
