Both the PI and the receiver are powered by the inverter when traveling. I set up at a campsite and let the Traveler lock onto the satellites. My receiver never gets powered off and will not do anything except display the DirecTV screen saver bouncing across the screen even though the Traveler box says it is locked onto 99/101/103 so, instead of sitting and waiting I push the red button. Maybe if I just sit and wait long enough it may eventually come on. I never tried. I have learned to press the red button before I even try to watch tv
I have had problems in the pre-Traveler days when I was manually setting up the dish. I would get "can't connect to lnb", signal and then realized the receiver has changed to multiswitch on its own. I have had it happen several times through the years. I never had a reason to change it myself, because I use nothing but SWM at home or in the RV.
Had to come back and edit what I said about never using anything but SWM. Back when I had my King Dome I had to set it up as multiswitch and single line. The following may be the only circumstance where the problem occurred.
When going back to the Slimline 3 SWM I would change the setup to SWM and align the Slimline 3. My alignment meter would tell me that I had all good signals and would come back inside to see that the receiver could not find the LNB. That's when I would find that the DVR had switched itself back to legacy. The same thing occurred when going the other way, i.e. SWM to the Dome.
