Connecting to Your TV	EN

For this antenna to work properly, you must access the menu on the television you are connecting this antenna to (consult your television owner’s manual) then set it to receive the signal from an ANTENNA instead of CABLE or SATELLITE.

Connections to your TV

fig.7 As previously noted the amplifier (Power Injector + Power supply) must be placed in-line between the antenna and before any splitter or additional devices.

1. Connect the coaxial cable from the antenna to the F connector labeled ANT on the Power Injector.

2. Connect Power Injector to the antenna input on your TV, Splitter and / or any other device.

3. Connect the Power Supply DC plug to the Power Injector then plug the power supply adapter into a 110/120 Volt AC receptacle.

Safety Note - The power injector and power supply is for indoor use only!

Alternate connections

1.If your TV has separate inputs for UHF and VHF you will need to purchase a signal splitter that will separate the two different signals.

2.If your TV has only two screw type antenna inputs you will need to purchase a 75 Ohm to 300 Ohm transformer.

A note about coaxial cable – Your MANT940 includes a 20 foot roll of RG-59 coaxial cable. If you should find that this is not adequate for your needs we recommend for best possible signal integrity that you do not extend this cable. A better choice is to replace the cable with either RG-6 or RG-6 Quad Shield cable. Both of these cables are designed for minimal signal loss over longer cable runs. This will ensure the best possible picture and overall performance.
