Introduction

SLx Link System

USER GUIDE

The SLx link allows you to both watch and control your Sky™ or Sky+™ receiver from a second TV in your home regardless of its location. The SLx link is compatible with Sky™ and Sky+™ receivers using your existing or additional remote control.

What you may need (not supplied)

•Suitable length of coaxial cable to route from your Sky™/Sky™+ receiver to your second television.

•For coaxial cable runs of over 10 metres, a suitable amplifier, such as the SLx 27822BM, is required.

•Male (plug) coaxial connector.

•Female (socket) coaxial connector.

Important

1.It is IMPORTANT that you follow ALL sections of the installation instructions in order to fully install your SLx link.

2.Please switch off all equipment and remove the plugs from the wall sockets before attempting to install any cabling. Please do not switch on any equipment until

you reach Step Three of this installation guide.

3.We have provided the instructions below for self installation, however for best results we suggest that the SLx link is fitted by an experienced electrical/aerial installer.

Figure 1 shows a typical system setup. Please read the following instructions carefully for full details of how to install your SLx link.

Installation instructions

1Step One

Installing your coaxial cable

1.Fit your female coaxial connector to one end of the coaxial cable and fit your male coaxial connector to the other end. It is important that when fitting coaxial connectors that the cable makes full contact with the pin of the coaxial connector. This is best acheived by soldering the cable into the connector. Failure to make a full contact between the cable and the connector pin will disable the remote control function of the SLx link.

2.Route your length of coaxial cable from the Sky™/ Sky+™ receiver location (female socket connector) to your second TV location (male plug connector). You can route the cable indoors or outdoors but it is important to ensure that there are no kinks or twists in the cable and that tight bends are avoided as this can damage the cable core.

Note: It is important that the coaxial cable signal is not interrupted by isolated wall plates, non-bypass aerial amplifiers or aerial splitters as these will disable the remote control function.

If necessary, please use non-isolated wall plates or a digital bypass kit with your aerial amplifier/splitter to avoid such problems (contact your local electrical or satellite installer for details).

3.Once your length of coaxial cable is in place, connect the female coaxial connector to the RF2 socket on the back of your Sky™/Sky+™ receiver.

2 Step Two

Installing the SLx link (Figure 3)

1.Connect the short lead with a male plug which is attached to the SLx link to the aerial input socket on your second TV. If you are using a separate VCR (excluding TV/VCR combination systems) then you must connect the SLx link to the VCR aerial input, not the TV aerial input.

2.Connect the male plug on your length of coaxial cable to the female socket on the SLx link.

3.Position the SLx infrared eye in a clear line of sight from where you will be using the remote control, (eg on top of your television).
