For Use With a Satellite Dish
TV55 Installation Procedure for use with a Satellite Dish
If you have a satellite dish it is possible to install the TV55 using
the same wiring as the satellite dish. To do this you will need to
purchase a set of diplexers (Terk model BDS-P1). The instructions
listed below are for a basic satellite system. If you have a more
complex satellite system and wish to install the TV55 in this
manor please call TERK Support at 1-800-290-6650.
Note: THE POWER-INJECTOR SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED
WHEN USING A SATELLITE SYSTEM WITH THE TV55.
1. Disconnect the coaxial cable from your satellite dish’s LNB.
2. Reconnect this coaxial cable to the outdoor diplexer on the
terminal labeled “SAT/ANT”.
3. Connect the RG6 coaxial cable downlead from the TV55’s “F”-
connector to an OUTDOOR diplexer-port (not included) labeled
“ANT”. Connect the remaining coaxial cable from the LNB to
the diplexer-port labeled “SAT”. (The ports on all of the
diplexers are “F”-connectors.)
4. Disconnect the coaxial cable from your Satellite Receivers
"SAT-IN" Terminal and reconnect it to an Indoor Diplexer (not
included) "TV/SAT"
5. Connect an RG6 coaxial cable from the INDOOR diplexer-port
labeled “SAT” to the “F”-connector port on the back of the
satellite receiver labeled “SAT-IN”. Connect an RG6 coaxial
cable from the INDOOR diplexer-port labeled “TV” to the “F”-
connector port on the back of the satellite receiver labeled
“ANT IN”.
