12V Line Powering
The SLx8 has built-in full
line powering which can be
used to provide power to
masthead amplifiers. When
connected to a masthead
amplifier, the SLx8 will send
the required power out of
the
IN UHF
socket up to the
masthead amplifier. Please
see your masthead amplifier
operating instructions for
more details.
It is important to ensure
that there is no equipment
between the
IN UHF
socket
and the masthead amplifier
output socket in order to
provide a non-interrupted
12V power supply to the
masthead amplifier. When
connected after any
equipment, the amplifier will
automatically detect that no
masthead amplifier is present
and so will not output 12V.

Additional Features
Full output socket
The SLx8 is equipped with a
FULL
output socket, which
carries a signal of the same
strength as your aerial
downlead. If you wish to
connect further televisions
in your home you can
connect another aerial
amplifier by connecting
an aerial fly-lead from the
FULL
output of the SLx8
to the input of another
amplifier.
If you are not using the
FULL
output socket it is
important that this output
is terminated using the
supplied terminator. Failure
to do this can result in poor
system performance.
Short circuit protection
For added safety the SLx8
has
built-in short circuit
protection
. Should a short
circuit be detected, the
amplifier will only shut
down the amplifier in order
to prevent any possible
damage. Should this occur,
all outputs will be switched
off but the power LED will
remain lit.
To reset the system following
a short circuit, simply remove
all outputs and inputs, switch
off the amplifier and remove
the power cable from its
socket for approx 30 seconds.
You should then reconnect
the amplifier outputs one by
one until you can find which
output is causing the short
circuit.
