Receiver Description and Installation

16. You may need to change the cable connection on the splitter that sends the

TV signal throughout your house. The change that needs to be made is

move the cable coming from the receiver

CH 21-69 O

from the output of

the splitter to the input of the splitter using the instructions that follow.

The following figure shows an example of what your splitter may look like.

Your splitter may look different. The places where the splitter indicates

refers to all TVs connected to your cable system. The places where the

splitter indicates In refers to where the TV signal is fed into the splitter.

17. Find where the TV signal is distributed throughout your house. It should be

near where the cable TV service enters the house.

18. Disconnect the cable TV service cable or antenna cable from the splitter

input, if necessary. Make sure the disconnected cable is capped or otherwise

protected from the weather.

19. Disconnect the cable coming from the receiver CH 21–69 Out port from the

splitter. If you do not know which cable this is, go to the next step.

Otherwise, go to step 21.

20. If you have multiple TVs on the cable system, do the following to determine

which cable on the splitter is coming from the receiver:

•

If you have at least some picture on your TV(s), turn on all remote TVs

connected to the cable system. Disconnect and reconnect each cable one

by one observing what happens to the TV(s). When all remote TVs lose

the signal, you have disconnected the receiver’s cable. If only some or

one TV loses the signal, then you have disconnected a cable from the

TV(s).

•

If the above step does not work, disconnect one of the output cables and

connect to the splitter input. If you do not see a picture, connect the

cable back to its output. Repeat this step on every connection until you

get a picture on the remote TV(s).

21. Reconnect the receiver’s cable to the input of the splitter.

22. Make sure you have a good picture on your remote TV(s).

1 Input, 4 Output (4-Way) Splitter
