Receiver Description and Installation
19. You may need to change the cable connection on the splitter that sends
the TV signal throughout your house. The change that needs to be made
is move the cable coming from the receiver CH 21-69 O UT
from the
output of the splitter to the input of the splitter using the instructions
below.
The following figure shows an example of what your splitter may look
like. Your splitter may look different. The places where the splitter
indicates O UT
refers to all TVs connected to your cable system. The
places where the splitter indicates I N
refers to where the signal is fed into
the splitter.
20. Find where the TV signal is distributed throughout your house. It should
be near where the cable TV service enters the house.
21. Disconnect the cable TV service cable or antenna cable from the splitter
input, if necessary. Make sure the disconnected cable is capped or
otherwise protected from the weather.
22. Disconnect the cable coming from the receiver CH 21–69 O UT
port from
the splitter. If you do not know which cable this is, go to the next step.
Otherwise, go to step 24.
23. If you have multiple TVs on the cable system, do the following to
determine which cable on the splitter is coming from the receiver:
•
If you have at least some picture on your TV(s), turn on all remote
TVs connected to the cable system. Disconnect and reconnect each
cable one by one observing what happens to the TV(s). When all
remote TVs lose the signal, you have disconnected the receiver’s
cable. If only some or one TV loses the signal, then you have
disconnected a cable from the TV(s).
• If the above step does not work, disconnect one of the output cables
and connect to the splitter input. If you do not see a picture, connect
the cable back to its output. Repeat this step on every connection
until you get a picture on the remote TV(s).
24. Reconnect the receiver’s cable to the input of the splitter.
