I have tried both but can't get a signal inside. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You need to be using the twin Satellite connectors. The Park Cable connector is for cable TV at your campsite pedestal. It won't work for satellite because it's a different type of cable (RG-59 vs RG-6) and it's routed first to the antenna booster which blocks Sat signal.
As you look at the twin Sat connector panel outside, the left side/inside should be Living Room and the right side/outside is Bedroom.
If you're not getting signal, pop open the panels inside and out to check that the cable behind is tight (the connectors on the panels are just pass-thrus)
