1. Introduction
Relaying satellite signals from the rooftop dish to multiple recei-
vers around the home, Digital Video Recorders (DVR) or throug-
hout an apartment block is an expensive proposition for system
installers. The Unicable multiswitch F MULTI 15 addresses this
problem by combining up to two input signals onto a single cable.
These signals are then decoded by a corresponding number of
tuners, potentially distributed across many set-top boxes.

!Attention! Receiver work with F MULTI 15 must with
Unicable function. It must be DC-Pass between IN and
OUT, also IN and SAT for all Outlets to work with
F MULTI 15. SAT/Terr.
Combiner should be DC-Pass between SAT port and
Common port.

4. Installation
1. Please refer above installation diagram in selection 3 to
install your system.
2. Power on all receivers and 18 V DC power adapter.
3. If power from receivers and 18 V DC power adapter exist,
green LED on multiswitch should be turn on.
4. Any DiSEqC commands between receivers and multiswitch,
 greenLEDwillbeashing.
5. If no power from receivers, multiswitch will be turn off.
Green LED will be turn off and it means F MULTI 15 is
turned off to power-saving mode.
6. No matter how the power is, the terrestrial signal is passive
and always working.
7. Setup in receiver menu:
Please refer to the manual of your receiver to enter the settings..
• Select the satellite you wish to receive.
• Select the LNB type as Unicable LNB or Unicable Multiswitch.
• Select for the rst receiver the following settings User ID:
0, User Band: 1210 MHz
• for the second receiver User ID: 1, User Band: 1420 MHz
• Start the search. After completion, save all program locations.
