Connecting and Setting-up the Receiver
8
Connecting the Equipment
Voltage-Supplies
When used as a mobile receiver, plug the supplied adapter cable (adapter cable
with universal plug for car cigarette lighters or car socket and low voltage plug-
socket.) directly into the onboard power unit (12 - 24 V).
Connect the low voltage adapter cable to the power-supply socket (6).
Warning! If the power-supply cable has been modified or another is to be used, ensure that
the polarity is correct. The receiver will be damaged if the polarity is wrong.
For stationary applications use the supplied 230V AC / 16V DC power unit.
Satellite signal connection
•
Connect the receivers Sat ZF-input to the Satellite reception system.
•
For the connection use a co-axial cable with a standard ”F” plug.
If the ”F” plug is not already fitted,
•
Prepare the cable as shown in the following diagram and
•
Rotate the ”F” plug on the cable end until it fits tightly.
Warning! This should only be hand tight, do not use tools to connect the ”F” plug to the cable
or when fitting the plug to the socket.
Warning! Ensure that there are no fine wires from the braiding shorting to the centre
conductor.
Pre-installation reception system
The control signal for conventional reception systems has already been pre-set by
the manufacturer, also the 14/18V polarity switching and the 22 KHz-switching sig-
nal for changing satellites when using multi-feed reception systems.
If a DiSEqC switching-matrix has been installed in the receiving system, the setting
”ON” i.e. ”Tone Burst” must be selected from the sub-menu ”DiSEqC” during the
basic ”DiSEqC” setting-up.
See also the section ”Basic Setting-up”, DiSEqC menu.
Also read the Matrix technical instructions, and contact your qualified technician
regarding the satellite reception system as well.
TV and Video-recorder (VCR) Connection
•
Connect the satellite receiver (TV scart-socket) to the TV with a scart-cable.
If you have a stereo TV, the scart connection will supply stereo quality tone.
•
The video-recorder should also be connected to the satellite receiver (VCR
scart-socket) with a scart-cable.
