Mounting the Switchplate
Support Frame and Front Cover
Before securing the switchplate to
the mounting surface, be sure to

Several tie-wraps have been
provided to aid in strain relieving
the wires.
The IRD that is connected to the

The RF signal cable is fitted with F-type connectors. One end
should be connected to the plug labeled "RF1" on the base of the

the IRD plug labeled "LNB" or "ANT/SAT." If a second IRD is to
be hooked up to the TracVision 6 antenna unit, the RF cable for
the second IRD should be connected to the plug labeled "RF2"
while the other end is connected to the IRD plug labeled "LNB"
or "ANT/SAT" on the second IRD.
