Winegard in motion wired wrong?

Sure hope i can get some help with this...
2017 Isata 5 36DS
Finally decided to purchase a Wally receiver to use with the in-motion satellite installed from factory.
There are 2 coax cables in the bedroom tv enclosure...no HDMI cable.
There is 1 HDMI cable in cabinet above entry door and no coax.
How can the Wally receiver be installed?

Somebody with a 36DS will have to help you with the location of the satellite coax. I will tell you that the Winegard satellite is setup for DirectTV and not Dish. The Dip Switches in the dome on the roof have to be change to receive Direct TV.

If you have the Matrix switch gear in your RV, I would think the satellite coax would be in the same location as your Matrix.

Well after speaking with Dynamax on phone they informed me the rv is incorrectly wired... Should be a coax and hdmi in bedroom ... Not... two coax in bedroom and hdmi in cabinet above entry.
Basically reduced to running a coax from bedroom to entry cabinet...not behind walls but just out in the rooms.
Or purchase an hdmi wireless system... haven't checked pricing yet.

I have a series 4 31DS. I got the wireless on amazon and it works perfectly. Easy install.
