Step by Step
1 Disconnect the TV from the CATV Outlet
Locate the cable connecting your TV (or VCR) to the wall cable
TV/CATV outlet. Unscrew the end from the wall connector. Leave
the other end connected to the TV/VCR. If you aren’t using a TV in
the room, just skip this step.
2 Connect the TV to the Diplex-Filter
Connect the end of the coaxial cable that was unscrewed from the
TV/CATV outlet to
TV
port of the included diplex-filter. If a TV or
other device is not being used, leave the
TV
port unconnected.
Do not substitute a generic cable splitter for the
provided diplex-filter;
although doing so will not
damage the TV or Access Appliance, the diplex-filter
improves the Appliance’s operational reliability
If you are not connecting to a TV in the room
, you
should use the provided diplex-filter, leaving the
TV
connector unconnected.
If you use one or more cable splitters
in the room,
you may continue to use them; however, you should
install the diplex-filter so that it is the first device
connected to the TV/CATV outlet.
