DIRECTV Latin America Wiring
Follow these steps to connect DIRECTV Latin
America receivers to the TracVision system
(DIRECTV L.A. circular LNB required).
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 29).
Connecting Multiple Receivers
a. Run a second RF cable (RF2) from the
antenna (see "Wire the Antenna" on page
Be sure to connect a grounding block in-line
with the RF1 and RF2 cables from the antenna
(see Figure 30 and
Requirements" on page
b. Connect the RF2 cable from the grounding
block to the "13V" jack on the power inserter
(supplied in the kit).
c. Connect the "V-OUT" jack on the power
inserter to the "18V" jack on the multiswitch
(supplied in the kit).
NOTE: If you need to connect more than four
receivers, install a multiswitch that has more outputs.
KVH offers an 8-output multiswitch (KVH part no.
19-0573).
d. Set the power inserter's switch to the
"17/18V-HORZ, 13/14V-VERT" position.
e. Connect the "Receiver" jack on the TV-Hub
to the "13V" jack on the multiswitch.
f. Connect the multiswitch outputs to the
"Satellite In" jacks on the receivers.
g. Terminate any unused outputs on the
multiswitch with 75terminators and verify
all connections are tight.
