Connecting To The Antenna - Topfield SRP-2401CIplus User Manual

2.4.1 Connecting to the antenna

Normally you do that by using a loop cable to link from the
LNB 1 OUT connector to the LNB 2 IN connector.
If you have two antennas without DiSEqC switch, then you
have to connect the cable from the other antenna directly to
the LNB 2 IN connector rather than using the loop cable.
NOTE
The digital receiver can supply a current of 500 milliampere
at maximum for antenna devices including LNB, DiSEqc
switch and antenna rotor through each antenna input con-
nection separately but not simultaneously. If there are too
many antenna devices to be simultaneously supplied with
sufficient power for a rather long time through the antenna
input connections, then your antenna may lack power to op-
erate. So it is recommended to link the LNB 1 OUT connector
to the LNB 2 IN connector with a loop cable, even though the
digital receiver is designed to operate independently over
two antennas.
NOTE
Perhaps you are expecting that the satellite antenna could
simultaneously catch all frequencies coming from a satellite
2.4 Connecting up your digital receiver 13
Whatever sort of connection you have be-
tween the digital receiver and the television,
you need to connect the digital receiver to the
antenna so that it can receive digital televi-
sion broadcasts. Connect the antenna cable
to the LNB 1 IN connector on the back panel
of the digital receiver.
Also, you must ensure that there is a connec-
tion to both the LNB 1 IN and LNB 2 IN con-
nectors on your digital receiver, so that both
tuners work properly.
