Connection and Setup

8

The following section is intended specifi cally for specialist

dealers. You only need to pay attention to this section if you are

carrying out the installation yourself.

The “Connection diagram” section contains a sample

confi guration.

Do not connect the unit to the mains until all installation work

has been properly carried out. Refer to the information in the

“Safety instructions” section.

Connecting the Unit

Connect the SAT-IF input on the UFD 170 to the satellite receiving sys-

tem. Use a coaxial cable with a standard F connector.

If the F connector is not yet fi tted on the cable, strip the insulation from

the cable as shown in the following illustration and carefully twist the

F connector onto the end of the cable until it is securely fi tted on the

cable.

When fi tting the connector, make sure that no wires from the braiding

are touching the inner conductor - this could result in short circuit.

The quality of the reception signal depends on the connection.
