Connection and Setup
The following section is intended specifically for specialist dealers.
You only need to pay attention to this section if you are carrying out
the installation yourself.
The “Connection Examples” section provides a range of sample
configurations.
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
Sat IF Connection
Connect the Sat IF inputs on the receiver to the satellite reception
system.
Use coaxial cable with a standard F connector.
If the F connectors are not yet fitted on the cable, strip the insulation
from the cables as shown in the following illustration and carefully
twist the F connectors onto the ends of the cables until they are
securely fitted.
When fitting the connector, make sure that no wires from the braiding
are touching the inner conductor, so no short circuit can occur.
The quality of the reception signal depends on the connection.
Reception Requirements
Make sure that your own satellite antenna system is equipped at least
with a universal LNB for digital reception in the high-band range.
Reception System Presets
The presets for the control signals have been made for standard
reception systems, i.e. 14/18 V for polarity reversal and 22 kHz
switching signal for low/high band changeover on multi-feed reception
systems.
The preset will need to be changed in the installation menu under
“DiSEqC™” if UFO
® micro or tone burst switching matrices are used in
the receiving system.
Refer to the section headed “Installation menu, DiSEqC™ menu”.
Be sure to follow the operating instructions for the matrix used.
