Antenna with Linear Quad LNB
(European systems only)
Follow these steps to connect three or four
receivers directly to the antenna.
NOTE: If you need to connect more than four
receivers to the TracVision system, install an active
multiswitch that generates a 22 KHz tone (such as
Spaun model 5602NF - KVH part #19-0413).
Connect the multiswitch in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Decide which receiver will be the primary
receiver. The primary receiver will control
satellite selection.
NOTE: The additional receivers will be able to
select any channel carried on the satellite that is
currently selected on the primary receiver.
2. Connect the RF1 cable from the antenna to
the “Satellite In” jack on the primary receiver
(see Figure 31).
3. Connect the RF2 cable from the antenna to
the “Satellite In” jack on the second receiver.
4. Connect the RF3 cable from the antenna to
the “Satellite In” jack on the third receiver.
5. Connect the RF4 cable from the antenna to
the “Satellite In” jack on the fourth receiver.

Figure 31: Receiver Wiring - Antenna with Linear Quad LNB
Be sure all receivers are grounded. If the
receiver has a 2-prong power plug, run a
ground wire from the receiver’s chassis to a
suitable ground point. If a potential exists
between AC and DC grounds, connect the
wire to the switchplate’s DC return instead.
