For Use With a Satellite Dish
TV55 Installation Procedure for use with a Satellite Dish
If you have a satellite dish it is possible to install the TV55 using the same wiring as the satellite dish. To do this you will need to purchase a set of diplexers (Terk model BDS-P1). The instructions listed below are for a basic satellite system. If you have a more complex satellite system and wish to install the TV55 in this manor please call TERK Support at 1-800-290-6650.
Note: THE POWER-INJECTOR SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED WHEN USING A SATELLITE SYSTEM WITH THE TV55.
