TIP
Depending on the length of the cable on the roof,
you may need to use cable clamps between
the unit and the cable entry plate. Clamping every 12–16"
should eliminate any unnecessary cable movement.
3. Connect the power supply to the "48 VDC" port of the IDU.
4. Connect one end of the AC power cord to the power supply
and the other end to a 110 V outlet. Powering on the IDU will not
raise the antenna.
5. Connect a coax cable running from port "C" of the mount
base to:
OPTION 1
: the "POWER TO SWM" port of the power
inserter or
OPTION 2
: the "In from SWM" port of the splitter.
6. Connect a coax cable from:
OPTION 1
: the "SIGNAL TO IRD" port of the power inserter to
the "In from SWM" port of the splitter
or
OPTION 2
: the "POWER TO SWM" port of the power inserter
to the "Out 1" port of the splitter, and connect the "SIGNAL
TO IRD" port of the power inserter to a receiver.
The
"
Out 1
"
port of the splitter is the only port that is power passive.
Therefore, the power inserter must be connected to this port
of the splitter. Terminate unused splitter outputs with a 75 ohm
termination cap.
7. Connect a coax cable from the splitter to each receiver. The
receiver(s) should already be connected to the TV(s).
8. Plug in the power inserter to a 110 V outlet.
Overall Setup
1. Drill a 1" hole in the roof, and push the power/control cable (and
coax cable for
OPTION 1
) through the hole. (For
OPTION 2
, if
you would like any cables running from the splitter to enter the
roof at this same point, push the cable(s) through this hole.)
Place the supplied cable entry plate over the hole and cables,
and screw the plate in place using eight of the supplied mounting
screws. Seal the plate, screw holes, and other drilled holes with
approved sealant (not included).
WARNING
Only port C should be used
for making connections to the
mount base. Do not connect the power inserter or
receivers to port A. Multiple receivers will connect
to the mount base via the splitter.

WARNING
The power inserter
should not be
mounted on the roof of the vehicle. The
power inserter must always be installed
inside the vehicle.
TIP
The splitter can be mounted on the roof of the
vehicle. However, the power inserter must always
be installed inside the vehicle. If hooking up the antenna to
only one receiver, the splitter is not needed, but the power
inserter must still be installed.
