2.4Connecting up your digital receiver

There are several ways to set up the digital receiver. Set up the digital receiver suitably to your television and other appli- ances. If you have any problem with your setup or need help, contact your dealer.

2.4.1 Connecting to the antenna

Whatever sort of connection you have between the digital re- ceiver and the television, you need to connect the digital re- ceiver to your television antenna so that it can receive digital television services.

Connect the antenna cable to the ANT 1 socket on the back panel of the digital re- ceiver.

However your digital receiver is connected to the television, you must ensure that there is a connection to both the ANT 1 and ANT 2 connectors on your digital receiver, so that both tuners work properly.

Normally you do that by using a loop cable to link from the RF LOOP 1 OUT connector to the ANT 2 connector.

NOTE

However, if you are in a weak signal area, or are using a signal ampliﬁer with more than one output, you may achieve better results by connecting a cable from the antenna or ampliﬁer di- rectly to the ANT 2 connector rather than using the loop cable.

If you have another digital receiver, link it from the RF LOOP 2 OUT connector.
