Connecting the Receiver

The receiver is connected by means of an LNB cable with the
connector box of your satellite antenna. You must install the LNB
cable before connecting the receiver, if necessary.
The LNB cable is not included in the scope of supply.
Caution!
Connect the receiver to the mains only after you have connected it
to all equipment and the antenna properly. Otherwise the receiver
can suffer damages.
The wire netting and the inner core of the LNB cable carry current
during operations.

LNB cable installation

A pair of wire strippers and a cable cutter is required for installing the
IF-connector on the coaxial cable.
Cut 8 mm of the coaxial cable at each end up to the inner core.
Carefully cut 10 mm of the outer insulation so that the wire netting
is exposed.
Turn the wire netting backwards and wind it over the outer
insulation in such a manner that it does not touch the inner core.
Remove the inner insulation up to 2 mm from the wire netting.
Rotate the IF-connector onto the turned-back wire netting till the
connector touches the inner insulation.
The wire netting should not protrude from the back of the
connector end.
Cut the inner core with a cable cutter in such a manner that it
projects maximum 1 mm from the connector.
