INSTALLATION OF ANY OTHER PASSIVE ANTENNA
For home usage, the DVB-T MOBILE 7 can be connected to an outside house antenna.
Please note that the TV antenna coming from the roof should be connected directly to the
antenna input designated ANT (IN). If the plug on your antenna cable is too short, use the
antenna extension cable provided or use optional IEC extenders available in stores. When
your antenna or connection cable is of the IEC type, screw the IEC Male - F Female tight to
the IEC Female - F Male connectors. Place the extender into ANT (IN) and the antenna
cable to the Extender. When your antenna connector is an F type, screw it tight to the IEC
Male - F Female extender and connect the antenna cable to AV (IN).
Please note that the DVBT72 should not be connected to a Cable TV system or to an
antenna with a closed dipole. Also prevent any short circuit to the connector(s) or the coax
cable. In the event an incorrect antenna is connected or a short circuit is present on the
Antenna input the following message will be displayed:
Antenna Power Error! Please remove your Antenna or
Antenna Cable. Refer to the User Manual
Switch off the DVB-T MOBILE 7. Disconnect the antenna or cable and check for any
irregularities or short circuits. In case a passive antenna is used, set the antenna power to
OFF in the Installation - Channel Search - Antenna setting menu.
Calibration / Orientation of a house antenna
If no channel have been found on a normal house antenna, it is likely that it is pointing
towards a transmitter which transmits only in analogue. If your zone is covered by digital
transmission (DVB-T zone), it is because the transmissions come from another transmitter,
and the orientation of your antenna needs to be modified.
Note: not all existing antenna's that are used for analog reception of TV channels can be
used for Digital reception. If you are in doubt, obtain an UHF/VHF directional antenna having
significant gain (at least 15 dB) and connect it to the ANT (IN) of the DVB-T MOBILE 7. Now
perform an automatic channel search (as described later in this manual). If no channels
found, rotate the antenna by an eighth turn and perform another automatic search. If you do
not find any channels, continue turning by an eighth turn and searching at each step. You
should end up receiving various new channels.
