Required UL Safety Sheet
The system has been designed to utilize an .84-meter downlink antenna. If you need pointing coordinates for AMC-1, please
contact the Muzak Network Operations Center (NOC) at 800 327.6549. You can also go to http://noc.muzakcitycenter.com
to obtain pointing information for a list of cities across North America. A polarity chart is attached to the back of this
document. Properly adjusting the antenna’s azimuth, elevation and polarity is critical to achieve good signal performance at
the downlink site.
When the receiver locks to the signal for the first time in a new installation, it will switch programs continuously until the unit is
authorized by Muzak NOC 800 327.6549 or through the web interface (http://www.muzakcitycenter.com). This also applies
to receivers that have been removed from service. Important note: The receiver must be successfully locked to the AMC-1
carrier before it can be authorized. Instructions below help verify this status.
The ENCOMPASS LE is a fully
addressable receiver with a front-
panel display and three front-
panel buttons, (up) , (down)
