HOOKUP GUIDE

STEP 1 DBS/Phone Hookup

NOTE:

The PowerCenter is intended for hookup of a single phone line only. A second line will NOT be connected through the phone line surge protector. You can use the HTS 5000 MKII as a phone splitter, however. If the OUT 1 outlet is in use, the “PHONE IN USE – OUT1” LED will light up and the OUT 2 outlet will be disengaged. If the OUT 2 outlet is in use, the “PHONE IN USE – OUT2” LED will light up and the OUT 1 outlet will be disengaged. This telephone privacy circuit prevents eavesdropping.

FOR PAY-PER-VIEW DEVICES (SUCH AS DBS)

A)Connect one end of a phone cable into a telephone wall jack. Plug the other end into the HTS 5000 MKII “IN” jack (figure 1a).

B)Connect a second phone cable from either the “OUT 1” or “OUT 2” jacks to the Pay-Per-View input on your DBS receiver (figures 1b and 1c).

FOR STANDARD TELEPHONE LINE PROTECTION (NOT A PAY-PER-VIEW DEVICE)

A)Connect a phone cable from a telephone wall jack to the HTS 5000 MKII “IN” jack. Connect a second phone cable from either the “OUT 1” or “OUT 2” jacks to the telephone (figures 1b and 1c).
