Connecting the CAP converter
The CAP converter V2 may only be operated with a supply voltage of 10.5 to 30.0 V. The earth connection of
the CAP converter must be connected to the negative pole of the motor home or caravan battery. Discon-
nect the vehicle electrical system (main switch “Off ” or disconnect the positive pole from the vehicle elec-
trical system battery) before starting the following work.
●
Connect the master coaxial cable (of the turntable) or coaxial cable (of the HDS 166 plus/CAP 500M plus) to the F
socket “Antenna” on the back of the CAP converter.
●
Connect the “TV/STB” connection of the CAP converter and a receiver or TV set with integrated satellite tuner using a
coaxial cable.
●
Connect the supplied power cable (depending on the power supply available in your motor home or caravan, 12 V or
230 V with mains adapter) to the “12V 2.0A” plug-in connection of the CAP converter.
●
Check the connections before you reconnect the on-board power supply.

Problems may occur if the devices are connected to diff erent connection sockets or circuits/earth potentials. It is recom-
mended to connect the connection sockets of the turntable to the same cable. Check the current carrying capacity of
the circuit used to ensure compliance with the intended application.
