I have a 211 and Tailgater. The software to drive the Tailgater is in the receiver.
If it did not have the software it could not align it to be able to see the birds to receive the software. Mine was new and I connected the Tailgater and a few moments later was watching TV! 3 birds, all channels, not hassle!
I am playing with mine connected to an old Winegard crank up on the RV. Working. I would bet it can receive it's software that way. Tech support could tell you where to poin the dish to receive the update.
