Prior to installing the LNB, unplug any devices from the mains that
belong to the satellite system.
Mount the Universal Quad LNB vertically on your satellite antenna so that
the four outputs (2) face downwards. For this, your satellite antenna must
have a LNB holder with 40 mm of diameter.
For information on how to mount and orientate your satellite antenna,
please refer to the documentation accompanying your satellite antenna.

Connecting the Cables
Only use high-end coaxial cable.
Use a sharp knife to remove 10 mm of the outer insulation from the
cable end. Make sure that the shielding net does not get damaged.
Next move the shielding net around the outer insulation of the cable
end.
Remove 7 mm of the central lead insulation of the cable end. Make
sure that the central lead does not get damaged.
Next rotate and push the F-type connector onto the cable end as
shown in the following figure.

Make sure that the cable shielding makes good contact with the F-
type connector case. Next make sure that the shielding net does not
touch the central lead.
Screw the F-type connector of one of the cable ends onto any output
(2) of the Universal Quad LNB. Repeat this procedure for any further
output (2) and leave any output (2) that you are not going to use
without connection.
Next pull the protective cover (1) downwards so that the F-type
connectors are covered.
Connect the F-type connector of the other cable end directly to your
satellite receiver. Please also refer to the User’s Manual of your
satellite receiver.

Troubleshooting
No signal
The connected satellite receiver receives no signal.
1. First check the antenna cable: The braided lead of the external wire
and the aluminium film must have good contact with the F connector
and must not touch the inner (centre) wire!
2. Check the reception settings of your satellite receiver and edit them, if
necessary. To further locate the problem we recommend that you
temporarily connect the LNB directly to the receiver and do not use any
switches or splitters.
Small number of channels
The antenna has been moved to the wrong satellite. When positioning
the antenna you may receive satellite broadcasting on similar
frequencies thereby causing the signal indicators of your satellite
receiver to increase. Normally it is sufficient to move the antenna a few
degrees to the East or West in order to receive the desired channels.
