14-INCH 82-CHANNEL OMNIDIRECTIONAL TV ANTENNA (150-1625) Connections Faxback Doc. # 32743 CONNECTING THE ANTENNA TO YOUR TV 1. Connect the coax downlead from the antenna to the ANT jack on the power injector. 2. If your TV has an F-connector, connect the short piece of coax cable from the power injector to your TV's VHF/UHF 75-Ohm F-connector. If your TV has screw terminals for VHF/UHF connection, connect a 75-to 300 Ohm transformer (such as Cat. No. 15-1140, not supplied) between the power injector and the VHF/UHF terminals. If your TV has a 75-Ohm VHF connection and a 300-Ohm UHF connection, connect a signal splitter (such as Cat. No. 15-1231, not supplied) between the power injector and the TV's VHF/UHF connections. 3. Insert the supplied AC adapter's small plug into the power injector's DC 12V jack. Then plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet. The LED on the power injector lights to indicate that the antenna is properly connected. Coaxial Cable Installation Precautions: Do not bend coaxial cable (RG-59/U, RG-6/U) into less than a 3-inch radius. Tighter bends can cause shorts and change the cable's impedance. Do not install coaxial cable where it will have a pulling tension greater than 50 pounds maximum. Leave no tension on the cable after installing it. Use only round-headed staples. Any securing devices or clamps used with coax should grip the cable evenly about the circumference without crushing the cable. Flat staples can damage coax cable. Do not expose coaxial cable to a temperature greater than (176 [degrees] F) (80 [degrees] C). Keep the cable away from heating vents and water heaters. Do not install coaxial cable where it will be crushed, stuffed, wedged, or pinched. The cable jacket withstands most outdoor environments. However, you must seal connections and splices against water entry. (RMF/EB 4/29/96)
