3 Connections
3.1 Outdoor unit
If possible, try to use an outdoor unit with TWIN LNB to be able to
receive satellite TV channels and digital radio channels at the
same time, independent of each other. If you do not want to
receive TV and digital radio channels at the same time, you may
continue to use your V/H LNB (s. 3.3 Satellite TV receivers).
Connect the
LNB input
of the ASTRASTAR AX 1 with the LNB of your
receiving equipment using an adequate coax cable. If the
LNB
input
is overloaded the message “cable error” appears in the
display after switching on.
If there is a short-circuit on the
LNB input
, the ADR receiver switches
off (a “ticking” is heard). In both cases switch off the ASTRASTAR AX
1 using the mains switch and eliminate the error cause. Observe
also 4 “Installation”.
3.2 HiFi amplifier
Connect the
audio analogue outputs
of the ADR receiver
ASTRASTAR AX 1 with an adequate amplifier input of your HiFi
equipment (e.g. CD or AUX). Caution, the phono input is not
adequate!
Devices with digital inputs (amplifiers, DAT recorders etc.) you can
connect to the electrical digital output.
Corresponding connection ca bles you can buy from your
TechniSat sales representative.
3.3 Satellite television receiver
If you want to operate your ADR receiver and a satellite television
receiver with a V/H LNB connect the coax cable from the
LNB input
of the satellite television receiver to the
TV receiver connection
of
the ADR receiver.
