Bay Star portable satellite/cable install questions

We are planning on getting a Pathway X2 and DISH and are trying to figure out how to connect it to a receiver in the tech cabinet and have it go to both TV's (living/bedroom).

We have read some threads that say Newmar does not provide portable satellite input unless you ask for this as a special.

1. Just confirming that the white coax cable in the tech cabinet is antenna and sends the signal to both LR/BR TV's.
2. What was the "satellite prep" we added as an option? Only for roof satellite? Does anything that was done help us with a portable install?
3. Does anyone have diagrams on the electronics in a Bay Star to help answer all our questions? Another example is there is a connection in the BR tech cabinet that is labeled "connect to satellite receiver from satellite antenna". What does that cable connect to on the outside?
4. At this point, how do we accomplish what we want to do?

So confused...

If I were you, I'd ask Newmar. We did a factory pickup and our tech explained the whole setup to us, but I'm sure with a new coach they must have a tech in customer service that understands exactly what you purchased. Just my 2 cents.

Did you get your build number?
