Connection and start-up
Connection and start-up
The following section is specifically intended for the specialist dealer. You only
need to read this section if you are carrying out the installation yourself.
You will find sample configurations in the section "Connection examples".
First, carry out all installation work before connecting the receiver to the mains
power supply.
Refer to the information provided in the section "Safety instructions“.
To connect receiver
Sat IF connection
Connect the Sat-IF input of the receiver to the satellite receiving system (satellite
dish).
Use a coaxial cable with a standard F connector for this purpose.
If you need to fit the F-connector onto the cable,
strip the cable insulation as shown in the diagram (you will need to fold back
the braid) and ·
· slide the F-connector onto the cable, then turn it clockwise until it locks.
When fitting the connector make sure that no wires of the shield braid make con-
tact with the inner conductor. This could otherwise cause a short-circuit.
The quality of the reception signal depends on a good connection!
Preconditions for receiving digital signals
Make sure that your satellite antenna system is equipped with at least one univer-
sal LNB to facilitate digital reception in the high band range.
Presetting receiving system
The control signals for conventional receiving systems (satellite dishes) are preset,
i.e. 14/18 V for polarisation changeover and 22 kHz switching signal for LOW/HIGH
band changeover on multifeed reception systems.
The presetting will need to be changed in the installation menu, menu point "DiS-
EqC" if UFO or tone burst switching matrices are used in the receiving system.
Refer to the section "Installation menu, DiSEqC menu“ for this purpose.
It is important that you observe the application information provided for the matrix
used.
