WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR RV/TV ANTENNA IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY
DO NOT install couplers, splitters, etc. between power
supply and antenna. Installation of any item on the
downlead MAY CAUSE A SHORT IN THE SYSTEM. The
downlead supplies +12 VDC to preamp in antenna.
HOW YOUR SYSTEM WORKS
Turning power supply on sends +12 VDC up cable to
antenna. Voltage energizes transistors on amplifier in
antenna head. TV signal comes back down cable to
outlets.
TO TEST SYSTEM
1. Make sure TV set is working properly.
2. Switch power supply ON and OFF to see if there is a
difference in the picture quality while watching TV. If NO
difference, use following steps.
CAUTION!
The power supply should be turned OFF when connect-
ing/disconnecting cables to power supply and antenna,
turned ON when testing for voltage.
3. Disconnect cable from antenna and check for +12 VDC
at Test Point #1. If there is +12 VDC, the power supply is
OK and the antenna needs to be replaced.
4. If there is NO +12 VDC at Test Point #1,reconnect
cable to antenna. Remove power supply from wall and
inspect for burned/broken parts. If there are ANY broken
or burned parts, replace power supply.
5. Disconnect cable from antenna jack on power supply.
Check for +12 VDC Test Point 2. If +12 VDC is present,
there is a problem in the cable connecting the power
supply to the antenna. Repair or replace cable.
NOTE: Power supplies manufactured after October
1991 have a polyswitch. The polyswitch shuts the
power supply off if a short in the cable is detected
and will reset itself in approximately two minutes
after the short is removed.
6. If +12 VDC is not present at Test Point # 2, check
green indicator light. If it is not ON, check the polarity of
the red/white wires and +12 VDC source. If there is still
no +12 VDC, replace power supply.
