DISH Network and Bell TV Wiring
Follow these steps to connect DISH Network or
Bell TV receivers to the TracVision system
(circular LNB required).
IMPORTANT!
Receivers must be DISH Pro-compatible. Look
for the DISH Pro logo on the box.
Connecting 1 Receiver
Connect an RF cable from the "Receiver" jack on
the TV-Hub to the "Satellite In" jack on the
receiver (see Figure 31).
Connecting 2 or More Receivers
a. Connect an RF cable from the "Receiver" jack
on the TV-Hub to the "Antenna" jack on the
DC block splitter (supplied in the kit).
b. Connect the "Primary" jack on the DC block
splitter to the "Satellite In" jack on the first
receiver. This receiver will be able to control
satellite selection in Automatic satellite switching
mode.
c. If you need to connect just a second receiver,
connect the "Secondary" jack on the splitter
to the "Satellite In" jack on the second
receiver (see Figure 32).
If you need to connect three or more
receivers, connect the "Secondary" jack on
the splitter to the "18V" port on a
multiswitch (see Figure 33). KVH offers a
4-output passive multiswitch (KVH part no.
72-0676) and an 8-output active multiswitch
(KVH part no. 72-0677).
d. When using a multiswitch, connect the
multiswitch outputs to the "Satellite In" jacks
on the receivers.
IMPORTANT!
To enable any of the additional receivers to
control satellite selection in Automatic
satellite switching mode, install an optional IP
Autoswitch (KVH part no. 72-0634) in-line
with its RF input. See Appendix A on
for details.
