1. Connect the RHCP LNB output and the LHCP LNB output to the RHCP(13/14V) and LHCP(17/18V)
inputs respectively of the TSMS-2150X-8AUV.
3. Connect the broadband antenna to the ANT IN on the back of the unit.
4. Connect each of the output ports on the back of the unit to a TSDM antenna/satellite
diplexer. Connect the TSDM output port to the appropriate input, tv and/or receiver If a broadband
antenna is not used then omit the TSDM diplexer and connect the receivers directly to the
TSMS-2150X-8AUV output ports
5. Plug the wall adaptor 3.5mm plug into the jack located in the back of the unit. Plug the adaptor into a
120Vac, 60Hz wall receptacle.
6. Each of the satellite receivers can select programs in either right or left hand circular polarities.
To select a right hand circular polarity, a 13/14 DC voltage is used and to select a left
hand circular polarity, a 17/18 DC voltage is used.
