NOTE: For Digital Signals, this aerial should be
used in strong signal areas only.
1. if your TV has a built-in digital tuner,
connect your aerial to the RF input on
your TV using the coax cable supplied.
2. If you have a separate digital set top box
connect your aerial to the RF input on
your set-top box. Connect a 2nd coax
cable (not supplied) from the RF output
on your set-top box to the aerial input on
your television. Alternatively, connect a
SCART cable (not supplied) from the
SCART output on your set-top box to
your television (see Fig. 1).
3.To tune TV signal reception rotate and
tilt the UHF blade antenna to obtain
best reception (see Fig. 2 and Fig. 3).
4. For VHF signals fully extend telescopic VHF
antenna rods.Then adjust antenna angle and
rotate the whole aerial to obtain the best
VHF/FM/DAB signal (see Fig.4).
Assembly
1. To assemble your SLx digiTop aerial simply slide the
column supporting the UHF antenna blade into the
slots in the base until it clicks into position -

1. if your TV has a built-in digital tuner,

2. If you have a separate digital set top box
connect your aerial to the RF input on
your set-top box. Connect a 2nd coax
cable (not supplied) from the RF output
on your set-top box to the aerial input on
your television. Alternatively, connect a
SCART cable (not supplied) from the
SCART output on your set-top box to
your television (see Fig. 6).
3. Connect the jack plug from the power
adaptor supplied to the power socket on
the aerial, plug the power adaptor into the
mains and set the gain control at halfway.
4. Follow steps 3-4 opposite to obtain the
best picture. If you are unable to obtain a
good picture adjust the gain to a higher
or lower setting and try tuning again
The RF IN coaxial socket on the back of
the aerial (See Fig. 6) allows an alternative
video source, such as an outdoor aerial,
cable TV, a video game, or satellite receiver
to be connected to your TV via the aerial.
This saves you having to keep connecting an
disconnecting the coaxial cable running to
your TV and also saves wear and tear on the
TV coaxial socket.
To select the signal from the aerial, switch
on the gain control.The green power LED
on the front of the aerial will light up,
while this LED is lit the signal sent to your
TV will be from the indoor aerial (see Fig. 5).
To switch to an alternative RF source
connected via the RF IN coaxial socket
simply switch off the gain control
(power LED is not lit).

Troubleshooting
Customer Care Line
Waste electrical products should not
be disposed of with household waste.
Please recycle where facilities exist.
Check with your Local Authority for
recycling advice.
Problems with DTT (Digital Terrestrial TV)
Unlike analogue terrestrial television, it is not possible to view DTT channel under weak signal
strength conditions.Therefore, typically you will either receive DTT channels with a clear picture
and sound or you will not receive any channels at all. Sometimes, an insufficient digital signal
can cause occasional blocking, freezing or complete loss of picture.
Try the following to improve the picture:
1. Tilt and rotate aerial.
2. Adjust gain control.
3. Position aerial at greater or lesser distance
from TV until optimum signal is received.
4. Check the mains adaptor connection.
Blocking, freezing or complete loss of picture can also occur when a digital signal is too strong.
Adjust Gain control to obtain best picture result.
