• Do not route cables where they might be cut, crimped, or crushed
by normal activities.
• For the best appearance, route the cable through the attic and
walls, and terminate each cable in a wall mount box with an F-
connector. Wall mount F-connectors, coaxial cable, and other
video accessories are available at your local RadioShack store.
MAKING CONNECTIONS
1. Connect coaxial cables (not supplied) to the amplifier terminal
using screw-on F-connectors.
• Connect the input source's coaxial cable to the terminal labeled
.
INPUT
• Connect the receivers' coaxial cables to terminals
located under
OUTPUT
used, attach the supplied terminators to any unused output.
Caution: To prevent damage, do not use pliers or any other tool
to tighten screw-on F-connectors. Hand tightening is adequate.
2. Connect the other ends of the coaxial cables to the receivers and
input sources.
• To connect more than one input source to the amplifier, use a
high isolation A/B switch or video selector (not supplied, both
available at your local RadioShack Store) to switch between
the inputs.
• To connect the output from both the amplifier and another
source to the receivers, use a high isolation A/B switch at the
receivers.
Caution: Never connect both an outdoor antenna and the output
from the amplifier to the antenna input of your TV or VCR without
using a high isolation A/B switch. Doing so could cause interfer-
ence with other nearby receivers.
3. To provide additional grounding, remove a rubber foot and back
out the #6 grounding screw. Place a grounding wire (not supplied)
over the grounding screw and tighten the screw back into the
housing.
Caution: This is an additional grounding method and is not to
replace the outdoor antenna system or cable system grounding
described in the safety instructions at the beginning of this man-
ual.
4. Connect the supplied AC adapter to the jack in the side of the
amplifier.
5. Plug the AC adapter into a standard AC outlet. The amplifier's red
power indicator lights when it has power.
6. Turn on every receiver connected to the amplifier.
7. Use a flat-head screwdriver to adjust the amplifier's
until you get the best picture.
Note: In extremely long cable runs (distances over 200 feet between
your outdoor antenna and the rest of your system), additional amplifi-
cation might be needed. Your local RadioShack carries a variety of
signal amplifiers.
