Connecting The Aerial To Your Pvr - Topfield TF 5810 PVRt User Manual

1.4.1 Connecting the aerial to your PVR

The first connection you should make is to connect a cable from
your TV aerial to the ANT 1 IN connector on the back of the
PVR.
However your PVR is connected to the TV, you must ensure
that there is a connection to both the ANT 1 IN and ANT 2 IN
connectors on your PVR, so that both tuners work properly.
Normally, you do that by using the supplied loop cable to link
from RF LOOP1 OUT to ANT 2 IN.
However, if you are in a weak signal area, or are using a signal
amplifier with more than one output, you may achieve better
results by connecting a cable from the aerial or amplifier di-
rectly to the ANT 2 IN connector, rather than using the loop
cable.
1.4 Connecting up your PVR 9
Whatever sort of connection you have be-
tween the PVR and the TV, you need to con-
nect the PVR to your television aerial so that
it can receive digital TV channels.
Note that in some areas, you may need to
upgrade your aerial to ensure that you re-
ceive digital television broadcasts — good
reception of existing analogue signals is no
guarantee of good digital reception.
