Television Interference

The XPower is shielded to minimize interference with TV signals. If TV signals are weak, you may see interference in the form of lines scrolling across the screen. Try one of these suggestions to minimize or eliminate the problem:

•Use an extension cord to increase the distance between the XPower and the TV, antenna, and cables.

•Adjust the orientation of the XPower, television, antenna, and cables.

•Maximize TV signal strength by using a better antenna, and use shielded antenna cable where possible.

•Try a different TV. Different models vary considerably in their susceptibility to interference.
