Once connected, you can tune each television 
to traditional terrestrial channels, a channel for 
VCR viewing and a channel for satellite viewing.

Note.

 Only one satellite channel can be viewed 

at any one time without the use of additional 
satellite receivers and subscriptions.

Note.

 It may be necessary to retune your VCR 

when used with a satellite receiver. Please 
consult your VCR owners manual for details.

Note.

 This amplifier will not allow for any 

voltage to pass through for the purpose 
infrared link products. The amplifier must be 
used in conjunction with a digital bypass kit 
(Philex model 27829R – SLx Digital Bypass Kit) in 
order to use with these types of products.

TV/VCR/DTT (Digital Terrestrial 

Television) DISTRIBUTION

1.   Connect your UHF aerial downlead to the 

aerial input on the DTT receiver and connect 
your FM aerial downlead (if applicable) to the 

IN FM 

socket on the SLx4.

2.   Connect an aerial fly-lead from the aerial 

output on your DTT receiver to the aerial 
input on your VCR.

3.   Connect an aerial fly-lead from the aerial 

output on your VCR to the 

IN UHF 

input on 

the SLx4.

4.   Connect your TVs and FM tuners to any of the 

SLx4 

TV

 sockets in any combination.

Once connected, you can tune each television 
to traditional terrestrial channels, a channel for 
VCR viewing and a channel for DTT viewing.

Note.

 Only one DTT channel can be viewed at 

any one time without the use of additional DTT 
receivers.

If you are receiving poor DTT reception 
then connect the SLx4 before your DTT 
receiver to help boost the signal strength. 
In most cases, poor DTT reception can only 
be cured by acquiring a suitable aerial 
(see troubleshooting) or waiting until DTT 
coverage improves in your area.

Note.

 Aerial flyleads are not supplied.
