Connecting 5 or More Linear Receivers
a. Connect an RF cable from the "Receiver" jack
on the TV-Hub to the "18V" jack on the
multiswitch (see Figure 23).
NOTE: If the desired satellite TV service is limited to
channels carried on high-band transponders (for
example, Sky Mexico), connect the RF cable from the
TV-Hub to one of the "22KHz" tone inputs on the
multiswitch, instead of the "18V" input. In addition,
since you do not need the "18V" and "13V" inputs for
high-band transponders, you only need to connect the
RF1 and RF2 cables to the multiswitch; RF3 and RF4
are unnecessary.
b. Connect a grounding block in-line with each
RF cable from the antenna (see Figure 23 and
"Grounding Requirements" on page
c. Connect the other end of the RF1 cable to the
"Antenna" jack on the TV-Hub.
d. Connect the RF2, RF3, and RF4 cables to the
multiswitch, as shown in Figure 23.
e. Connect each multiswitch output to the
"Satellite In" jack on each receiver.
f. Terminate any unused outputs on the
multiswitch with 75terminators and verify
all connections are tight.
IMPORTANT!
To enable any of the receivers to control
satellite selection, install an optional IP
AutoSwitch (KVH part no. 72-0634) in-line
with the receiver's RF input. See Appendix A
on page 33 for details.
