4. Connect the other end of the RF cable to ‘
LNB
’, ‘
ANT
’ or
‘
Satellite In
’ on the rear panel of the second IRD.
Full details on configuring your system IRDs will be found in the
relevant Manufacturer’s handbook.
Multiple IRDs
IMPORTANT:
Due to satellite polarization, incorrect connection
in systems using multiple IRDs will result in signal degradation.
Make sure you select the correct method of connection for your
area of operation.
In order to connect three or four IRDs to the antenna you will
have to purchase a suitable
universal LNB multiswitch
and the
necessary additional RF cables.
The multiswitch has to be installed between the antenna unit
and the IRDs as shown in the following diagram.
You should connect to either the vertical or horizontal high and
low pairs depending on whether you want to watch channels in
the high or low bands. Only those channels in the selected band
will be available for viewing.
To connect three or four IRDs:
1. Connect an RF cable to
RF1
and another to
RF2
on the
antenna base plate.
