Direct TV

I have direct TV in my house and was able to use my boxes in my last RV. I have a Sabre 5th wheel and can't get them to work. I am using a portable dish and tried both connecting it strait to the TV and into the Sat connection in the outside compartment. These pics show the outside compartment, bedroom connections and dish. Any suggestions. Click image for larger version

Two things, I needed to reprogram the dish after not using it for several months, and the new mini genie boxes will not work unless they are connected with the main genie box. I was able to use one of my older boxes and can return the mini genie and activate another one of my old boxes.
