2 Safety notes
For your own protection, you should read the safety notes carefully before installing the
equipment. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by inappropriate hand-
ling, or by ignoring the safety instructions.
> Components should be mounted in a dry room, on a horizontal plane, consisting or
flame-resistant materials.
> When installing the equipment keep the electricity switched off.
> Ensure the antenna installation is earthed.
> Ensure the antenna installation is protected from lightning as per local regulations.
> Ensure that you are in compliance with relevant European standards and VDE regu-
lations, where applicable, with regard to electrical safety.
>You must comply with national regulations pertaining to broadcast reception installati-
ons.
> Never open the housing of the equipment. Any repairs necessary should only be car-
ried out by a qualified specialist. If the following apply, disconnect the equipment from
the mains power supply, and call a qualified repair person:
> the unit was subject to humidity, or water has run into the unit,
> in case of malfunctions,
> in case of severe external damage.
3 Installation
3.1 General
>We recommend a star-shaped distribution, with the distributor being located either in
the attic or near the centre of the building. If you are using a cascade matrix, please
note Point 3.5.
> Please ensure that the levels of the satellite signals fed into the system are approxi-
mately equal. This ensures that the very good decoupling characteristics are not limi-
ted.
> As cables are very sensitive to damage, you should install these as late as possible
duriung the building process. If possible, lay the cables inside a protective tube or
pipe. Do not bend cables too sharply!
> Install the equipment while the electricity is switched off, or disconnected.
3.2 Selecting the external unit/LNCs
>You may use Quatro or Dual-Output LNCs. Please note the maximum possible
current strength for inputs, as per the technical data.
> Quatro-Switch LNCs, Twin LNCs and Single Universal V/H LNCs are not suitable.
> The current feeding the LNCs ia approx. 18V (load-dependant).
3.3 Cable
> Because of the amplification provieded by the units, you can use small-calibre, easy-
to-use cables in spite of the higher damping this means.
> When connecting the LNCs with the multi-switch, resp. several multi-switches with
each other, we recommend the use of MULTYMEDIA cable (Art. No. 0001/3014).
> we recommend you use mini coaxial cable to connect the multi-switch with the anten-
na sockets.
>To isntall longer sections of cable to connect to the antenna sockets, please use the
low-damping co-axial cable CoaxSat 2150.
> Damping values are specified in Point 6.
> Please use crimp-type connectors wherever possible!
