A LT E R N ATIVE ANTENNA OPTIONS

A LINEAR antenna is supplied with your receiver. Alternatively, you may use a WorldSpace CIRCULAR antenna, or a LINEAR Yagi antenna with 2.3 volts LNA (Low Noise Amplifier). You may also have an in-house CABLE-connected outdoor antenna. Optional antennas, LNAs and in-house installation are available separately. When changing antennas you will need to select the appropriate antenna mode: LINEAR, CIRCULAR, or CABLE.

NOTE: receivers are factory-set for the LINEAR antenna mode for the supplied antenna.

In LINEAR mode the antenna voltage supply is 3.0 volts. This mode is suited for the linear antenna provided with the receiver, or a Yagi antenna with 2.3V LNA.

In CIRCULAR mode the antenna voltage supply is 2.4 or 3.0 volts. This mode is suited for a circular (patch) antenna. In this mode, the receiver will automatically select the voltage.

In CABLE mode the antenna voltage supply in the receiver switches off. This mode is for an in-house cable installation with separate voltage supply for an active outdoor antenna.

NOTE: All antennas options require an unobstructed line-of-site to the WorldSpace satellite so that the antenna can receive the transmissions.
