INSTALLATION
The MS-3005 antenna may be installed inside or outside on any mast or pole.
DO NOT MOUNT OVER CHIMNEY OPENING.
STEP 1. Attach the antenna head to the black mounting adapter. You will need
to twist the antenna head back and forth while pushing it onto the adapter. The
head will snap tightly onto the adapter.
STEP 2. Insert the black nylon bolt into the mounting bracket so that the keyway
is secured into the provided slot on the bracket. Proceed to screw the bolt onto
the antenna adapter (see Figure 1 for direction of mounting bracket.
STEP 3. Insert "U" bolt thru mast clamp and mounting bracket and start hex nuts
onto "U" bolt. See Figure 1. Slide mast thru "U" bolt and tighten hex nuts with
7/16" wrench.
ATTACHING DOWNLEAD COAX CABLE
If using the power supply, follow these steps.
STEP 1. Attach "F" connector on downlead coax cable to the power inserter
marked "ANT/AMP".
STEP 2. Attach "F" connector on coax cable from DTV, Digital Converter
box, Distribution Amplifier, or splitter system to jack on power inserter marked
"TV/TUNER". See Figure 2.
STEP 3. Connect one end of the supplied 3' USB cable to the USB PWR port on
the power inserter. Connect the other end of USB cable to the USB port located
on the TV or to the 110V wall wart adapter. See Figure 2.
TIP: If using a splitter to distribute signal to more than one TV, connect the USB
cable to the 110V wall adapter instead of the TV USB port.
TIPS:
If splitting the signal to multiple TVs or combining with another signal source, it is
strongly recommended that the power inserter be installed between the antenna
and the splitter/combiner input. In this case, the cable connection from the “TV”
jack of the power inserter goes to the splitter input or valid combiner input. Use
splitters rated from 54-806 MHz or wider bandwidth (commonly 5-1000 MHz)
for over-the-air television signal distribution.
Additional distribution/inline amplifiers must be installed FOLLOWING the TV
output of the power inserter, NOT on the downlead cable line connecting to the
ANT/AMP port. Check TV picture quality and antenna alignment prior to adding
additional line amplifiers.
A maximum antenna-to-power inserter length of 150 feet RG-6 or 150 feet
RG-59 is acceptable.
