Troubleshooting
Make sure the satellite antenna and LNB are properly fixed, connected and adjusted and that the satel-
lite receivers are installed, connected and switched on according to available instructions.
Ensure there is no short circuit on the product inputs. This will prevent power to the LNB. If this is the
case, disconnect the product from the main power, and then find and remove the short circuit on the
product inputs. Then re-connect the multiswitch to the main power. Frequent defects are in connector
joints i.e. if the central conductor is too short and fails to make contact in the connector. Also the shield-
ing braid should make proper contact with the connector coat. Sometimes a reset to the multiswitch
microprocessor is sufficient to remove a fault: simply disconnect the multiswitch from main power for 30
seconds and then reconnect again. If you are unable to remove the fault yourself, please contact your
distributor.
Disposal
Following relevant EU directives, this device shall not be disposed of together with municipal waste.
Use local waste collection and recycling systems to dispose wore out products.

There are two output connectors: Legacy and Unicable.
The Legacy output is a standard Universal switching output that allows to connect a legacy receiver
that is not supporting the Unicable protocol.
The Unicable output allows to connect up to 4 receiver tuners – each needs to be allocated one of the
4 user bands supported by the multiswitch.
Each receiver tuner is assigned with 1 out of 4 communication channel frequencies (user band). The
frequencies are listed on the product sticker:

For optimized performance, please follow the recommendations below:
use the highest frequency for a wall socket located the nearest to the multiswitch and use the1.
lowest frequency for wall socket located farest to the multiswitch.
If you install less than 4 receiver tuners, use the lowest frequencies first. We also recommend2.
to keep record of the user bands allocated to the different connections as these user bands will
then have to be set in the receiver. The satellite receivers connected to the multiswitch have to
be Unicable-compatible (usually marked with Unicable™ logo).
Note: Loopthrough outputs that are not used should be terminated with 75ohm DC-blocked
terminations.
Safety
Never open a powered product. This may result in electrical hazard.
Never work on the product, TV set or other powered devices during or before a storm. A lightning
strike into the antenna may cause dangerous overvoltage over the product’s metallic/conductive
parts.
Make sure the local electricity network corresponds to the operating voltage of the AC/DC adaptor.
If the products gets into contact with liquid it must be disconnected from the main power.
It is recommended to disconnect the product from the main power if it is not used for long periods of
time. When disconnecting the product don’t pull the cable but the plug to prevent damage of the cable
(wobbly plugs and outlets result in fire risk). The product should be serviced by qualified experts only.

To connect the product inputs and outputs use
high-quality coaxial cables designed for satellite reception
and F-connectors. Use a high-shielding coaxial cables with
minimum 90dB. If you use wall sockets to loopthrough the
4 user bands, make sure the wall sockets were designed
for satellite reception compatible with Unicable technology
and allows bidirectional signal propagation.
The switch may be powered by the connected STBs direct-
ly or through the supplied Power Inserter and AC adaptor.
For long cable installations, it is recommended to use the
supplied Power Inserter and the AC/DC adaptor in order
to ensure proper and stable input voltage level.
