Planning Installation
2.1 Installation Location
• Make sure that the MIM2 is mounted in a dry, cool location, avoiding
any wet locations. Yet still be visible and accessible.
• Easily accessible from your main TV viewing area to be able to check
the status LED's and for manual selection of master receiver. It can
be hidden in a locker or cabinet.
2.2 Power Requirements
• DC Power Cable: Connect the DC Power Cable to use DC power source from the
i-Series ACU.
1000 mm (39.37")
• AC-DC Adapter: Connect the AC Adapter if using an AC power source.
(Input 100-240V AC 50/60Hz, Output : 12V DC 3.33A)
350 cm (137.8")

Connecting the Cables
3.1 Single Receiver Installation
1. Connect the RF cable from the "RF1" connector on the antenna to
the "ANT.RF" connector on the rear panel of the Antenna Control Unit (ACU).
2. Connect the RF cable from the "RECEIVER" connector on the rear panel of ACU
to the "RF INPUT-RF1" connector on the MIM 2.
3. Connect the RF cable from the "RF2" connector on the antenna to
the "RF INPUT-RF2" connector on the MIM 2.
4. Connect the RS-232C cable from the "PC interface" connector on the rear
panel of the ACU to the "ACU-RS-232C" connector on the MIM 2.
5. Connect the RF cable from any "TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN" on the rear of
the MIM 2 to the "Satellite In" on the rear panel of the receiver.
6. Push the "Select" button on the front panel of the MIM 2 to setup
the "Master" control receiver. Then the LEDs on the front panel indicate Master
STB when you push the button on the front panel of MIM 2 .

3.2 Multi-Receiver (up to four) Installation
1. Connect the RF cable from the "RF1" connector on the antenna to the
"ANT.RF" connector on the rear panel of the Antenna Control Unit (ACU).
2. Connect the RF cable from the "RECEIVER" connector on the rear panel of the ACU
to the "RF INPUT-RF1" connector on the MIM 2.
3. Connect the RF cable from the "RF2" connector on the antenna to the
"RF INPUT-RF2" connector on the MIM 2.
4. Connect with the RS-232C cable from the "PC Interface" connector on the rear
panel of ACU to the "ACU-RS-232C" connector on the MIM 2.
5. Connect the RF cable from any "TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN" on the rear of MIM 2
to the "Satellite In" on the rear panel of the receiver.
6. If you have more than one receiver, repeat step 5 to connect RF cables
between the other receivers and the MIM 2 connectors.
7. After completing connections, select one as "Master" by pushing
the "Select" button on the front panel of the MIM 2. Then the LEDs on the front
panel indicate Master STB when you push the button on the front panel of MIM 2.

Select the Master Control Function
1. When you have a receiver connected to "TO RECEIVER SATELLITE IN" number 1
of the MIM 2, the STB1 light turns on when you push the button the first time.
2. If you have other receivers connected, the STB light will move from STB1
through STB4 when the button is pushed. This light means the receiver using
this connection will be the "Master". You can designate any receiver as the
Master using the "Select" button.
3. When using multiple MIM 2 devices, first select a Master MIM 2. When the
button on the Master MIM 2 is pushed, all lights on the other MIM 2 turns off
because only one MIM 2 can be a Master. Once the Master MIM 2 is selected,
you can select STB1 through STB4 as the Master receiver using the "Select"
button.
