Second connection
(optional)
1. The coaxial cable is routed inside the vehicle.
2. When choosing the location for the controller and the satellite receiver, make sure
that both units are in a dry and sheltered place.
3. Keep the controller and the satellite receiver away from heat sources and provide
adequate ventilation.
4. The basic connection options for the antenna system are shown below:
• Connect the power supply (red-black wire) for the controller to your vehicle‘s
battery via a fuse (7 amps) to prevent cable burn in the event of a short circuit. The
yellow cable is connected to the ignition plus of the vehicle and also secured with
a fuse of 7 amps (this cable only needs to be connected if the antenna is to start
automatically when the engine is started.). The remaining black cable is connected
to the corresponding negative pole of the ignition system (ground).
• Connect the cable coming from the antenna to the controller:
- 10 m coaxial cable with F-connector in „ANTENNA“
• Connect the controller to the satellite receiver:
- 1 m coaxial cable with F connector from „RECEIVER“ to the satellite receiver
2.4 Indoor installation
Note:
If you want to operate two televisions, connect a second coaxial cable from the
antenna directly to the second satellite receiver.
