Connecting multi satellite TV receivers with auto switching (Use the
circular polarity of satellite)-S4 can be mounted with optional circular LNB
for option.
To connect three or four satellite TV receivers to the SuperTrack S4 antenna, you will
need to install an active multi-switch (Channel Master - model 141FD or equivalent)
between the antenna and the satellite TV receivers. Two RF cables should already be
connected to the connectors labeled “RF3” and “RF4” on the base plate of the
SuperTrack S4 antenna. Figure 2-20 shows a typical wiring arrangement for four
satellite TV receivers. Mount the multi-switch unit in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instruction sheet.
One satellite TV receiver will be connected to the ACU via a passive splitter. This
satellite TV receiver serves as the master satellite TV receiver and will control automatic
satellite switching via DiSEqC signals. But the splitter and multi-switch should be
purchased separately. The “ACU” coaxial cable should be connected between the
antenna unit and the ACU. Then, connect the RF cable labeled “RF4” to the multi-switch
input labeled “LNB LHCP +18V.” And, connect the RF cable labeled “RF3” to the multi-
switch input labeled “LNB RHCP +13V.” The outputs of the multiswitch will then be
routed to the individual satellite TV receiver input. Use an RF cable with F-type
connectors for all RF connections. Terminate all unused output connectors with 75 ohm
DC blocks. Depending on the length of the cable, you may need to use cable clamps or
wire ties (not provided) between the ACU and the Antenna Unit.
To send the 22 KHz tone to the ACU via DIRECTV DSS Plus satellite TV receivers,
one splitter should be installed between the Master satellite TV receiver and the ACU.
As a result, the ACU will receive the signal to change satellites when you change
channels using your DIRECTV DSS Plus remote. It is also compatible with the DISH
NETWORK DISH500 service. If the DISH NETWORK satellite TV receiver sends a
command to the ACU, the ACU will decode the command for SW21 to change satellites,
emulating a simple SW21 device. As a result, DISH NETWORK subscribers can change
satellites using their remote.
