This connection method will allow for infrared link devices to be installed one or more of the TV
locations. These devices allow you to control your Sky™ or Sky+™ receiver from any TV location
not having a clear line of sight of the receiver.
1. Connect your UHF aerial downlead to the aerial input on the VCR.
2. Connect an aerial fly-lead from the aerial output on the VCR to the aerial input on the satellite
receiver.
3. Connect an aerial fly-lead from the RF2 output on the satellite receiver to the
IN UHF
socket on
the SLx2B.
4. Connect your TVs to any of the SLx2B
TV
sockets in any combination.
Once connected, you can tune each television to traditional terrestrial channels, a channel for
VCR viewing and a channel for satellite viewing.
Note. Only one satellite channel can be viewed at any one time without the use of additional
satellite receivers and subscriptions.
Note. It may be necessary to retune your VCR when used with a satellite receiver. Please consult
your VCR owners manual for details.
METHOD 4
TV/VCR/DTT (DIGITAL TERRESTRIAL TELEVISION) DISTRIBUTION
CONNECTION DIAGRAM
1. Connect your UHF aerial downlead to the aerial input on the DTT.
2. Connect an aerial fly-lead from the aerial output on your DTT receiver to the aerial input on
your VCR.
3. Connect an aerial fly-lead from the aerial output on your VCR to the
IN UHF
socket on the
SLx2B.
4. Connect your TVs to any of the SLx2B
TV
sockets in any combination.
Once connected, you can tune each television to traditional terrestrial channels, a channel for
VCR viewing and a channel for DTT viewing.
If you are receiving poor DTT reception then connect the SLx2B amplifier before your DTT
receiver to boost the signal strength. In most cases, poor DTT reception can only be cured by
acquiring a suitable aerial (see troubleshooting) or waiting until DTT coverage improves in your
area.
Note. Only one DTT channel can be viewed at any one time without the use of additional DTT
receivers.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you are still experiencing reception problems after installing the SLx2B amplifier, please
refer to the below troubleshooting guide:
No picture or sound
No signal is reaching your television due to a possible break in the aerial signal path. Ensure that
all equipment has been switched on (including the SLx2B amplifier) and that all coaxial
connectors have been fitted correctly.
Snowy picture
Your signal strength is too weak. You may have to use a masthead aerial amplifier improve the
signal quality from the UHF aerial downlead. Also ensure that your aerial is positioned correctly
(pointing at your local TV transmitter). For details of your local television transmitters, visit
