Connecting the Mediamaster
GB 9
Connecting to the TV aerial
You can connect the Mediamaster to the following type of aerials:
Standard outdoor aerial
Where possible, use an outdoor roof aerial intended for receiving
UHF channels between 21 and 69.
Please note the following:
• In some block of flats, the roof-mounted aerial system includes
a filter and channel selector. If so, the aerial will probably not
work with the Mediamaster. Please consult the landlord.
• Many older roof-mounted aerials may only receive a limited
number of channels. As a result, digital channels transmitted on
higher frequencies are difficult or even impossible to receive.
The problem can be solved by replacing the roof aerial.
• Some outdoor aerials are directed towards an analogue trans-
mitter. The aerial must be directed towards a digital TV trans-
mitter.
• It is not always advisable to position the aerial as high as possi-
ble. If problems arise, experiment with different aerial heights.
Indoor and window-mounted aerials
This type of aerial may be enough if the reception conditions are
very good. If an indoor aerial is used, please note the following:
• Use an aerial for UHF channels 21 - 69, such as a directional
aerial.
• Place the aerial by the window and directed towards the TV
transmitter, if possible.
• An aerial with an amplifier is recommended as it may provide a
stronger signal.
• The strength of the TV signal varies according to reflections from
e. g. buildings. The signal penetrates thick stone or concrete
walls poorly. However, a wooden building is not a big barrier to
digital TV signals.
