- Monteringssted:
Choose a mounting location that is as high as possible and free from obstructions (trees, buildings) that could block the signal. The antenna should be mounted on a sturdy mast or pole.
- Attaching to Mast:
Attach the antenna to the mast using the provided U-bolts and mounting hardware. Ensure the antenna is oriented horizontally for optimal reception of terrestrial signals. Tighten all nuts securely, but do not overtighten.
- Koaksialkabelforbindelse:
Connect a high-quality 75-ohm coaxial cable (RG6 recommended) to the F-connector on the antenna's balun. Ensure the connection is tight and weatherproof. Use weatherproof tape or a silicone boot over the connection.
- Jording:
Properly ground the antenna mast and coaxial cable according to local electrical codes. This typically involves connecting a ground wire from the mast to a ground rod and installing a grounding block for the coaxial cable before it enters the building.
- Aiming the Antenna:
Once mounted, aim the antenna towards the local broadcast tower. You may need to use a signal meter or consult online resources for your area's broadcast tower locations. Make small adjustments and check signal strength on your television until optimal reception is achieved.
5. Betjening af antennen
The Triax DIGI 343 LTE 700 is a passive antenna and does not require external power for operation. Once installed and aimed, it will receive digital terrestrial television signals.
- Connect the coaxial cable from the antenna to the "Antenna In" or "RF In" port on your digital television or set-top box.
- Perform a channel scan on your television or set-top box to detect available digital channels. Refer to your television's or set-top box's user manual for specific instructions on how to perform a channel scan.
- If signal quality is poor, try fine-tuning the antenna's direction or consider using a signal amplifier (not included) if you are in a weak signal area.
6. Vedligeholdelse
