Item:  6097
Thank you for purchasing Inverto’s advanced Unicable II® multi-switch and we are certain it will meet your expectations. Before installing and operating the product, please read the following instructions and recommendations. We suggest that you keep this manual for future use.
Warranty
This Unicable II® multi switch is designed for the distribution of satellite and terrestrial television and radio signals in home installations. The warranty does not apply for products used for other purposes than those specified herein. The user/installer shall be responsible for any damage incurred as a result of not using the product according to the instructions in this manual.
Installation location
The product shall be installed on a wall or other hard inflammable surface.
The product shall be in no case held only with the connected cables.
Place the product in a dry environment where it is not exposed to rain or running water.
Do not install the product close to heat sources or in places exposed to direct sunlight.

Product installation

To distribute the best signal quality across your installation we recommend connecting the product inputs and outputs using high-quality coaxial cables and F-connectors designed for satellite TV distribution. Use a highly shielded coaxial cable with minimum shielding of 90dB. If you use wall sockets to loop through the STB outputs, make sure the wall sockets were designed for satellite TV distribution allowing bidirectional signal propagation.
The satellite input ports can be connected directly to a Quattro/Wideband LNB (pay attention to the port designations and the correct position of the LNB type switch SW1) or cascade to another Multiswitch unit.
The DC-input port of the Multiswitch unit powers the satellite trunk lines to power the connected LNB. It also powers the unit’s built-in Terrestrial amplifier as well as the Terrestrial amplifier of cascaded units. The Trunk power LED will turn green when the Trunk lines are powered.

The output ports are powered by the connected STBs to enable super low power consumption of the unit and allow the power of the maximum number of cascaded switches through a single power supply unit.
If a connected STB is not able to power the port, a power inserter can be utilized*.

• Power Inserter and AC/DC power adapters are not included and can be purchased separately.
  Notes:
  For optimal performances, satellite loop-through outputs that are not used shall be terminated with 75ohm DC-block terminating resistors. The Terrestrial loop-through output port shall be terminated with a 75ohm terminating resistor. It is also recommended to terminate unused STB output ports with 75ohm terminating resistors.

Product Configuration

Each of the four STB output ports is compatible with either Sky Q, Sky+ HD, or Sky + STB models and can detect automatically what type of STB is connected to each port. Each port supports 16 User Bands. The list of the User Bands’ parameters appears on the next page.
The Multiswitch unit has a Port Status LED next to each of the four STB ports.
The status LED identifies the mode of the port:

• solid green = Legacy mode (e.g. Sky+ STB).
• blinking green = dSCR or SatCR mode (e.g. Sky Q or Sky+ HD STBs).
• off = no voltage detected on the port (only terrestrial signal available on the port)

All four STB output ports combine the Terrestrial input signal.
The following diagram describes a typical single household installation of the product:

The following diagram illustrates a typical MDU/building installation with two Wideband LNBs receiving two satellites:

• If Sky service is required to be distributed, it should be connected over the SAT A position  MSW = Multiswitch
  Connect the cables from the Quattro/Wideband LNB to the input connectors (pay attention to the identification of the connectors and the correct position of the LNB type switch) and Connect the Terrestrial antenna to the Terrestrial input port:

The number and frequency of the 16 User Bands available over each STB output port are the following:

Safety

• Never open a powered product. This may result in electrical hazards.
• Never work on the product, TV set, or other powered devices during or before a storm. A lightning strike into the antenna may cause dangerous overvoltage over the product’s metallic/conductive parts.
• Make sure the local electricity network corresponds to the operating voltage of the AC/DC adaptor. If the product gets into contact with liquid it must be disconnected from the main power.
• It is recommended to disconnect the product from the main power if it is not used for long periods of time.
• When disconnecting the product don’t pull the cable but the plug to prevent damage to the cable (wobbly plugs and outlets result in fire risk).
• The product shall be serviced by qualified experts only.

Troubleshooting

Make sure the satellite antenna and LNB are properly fixed, connected, and adjusted and that the satellite receivers are installed, connected, and switched on according to available instructions. Ensure there is no short circuit on the product inputs. This will prevent power to the LNB. If this is the case, disconnect the product from the main power, and then find and remove the short circuit on the product inputs. Then re-connect the multi-switch to the main power. Frequent defects are in connector joints i.e. if the central conductor is too short and fails to make contact in the connector. Also, the shielding braid should make proper contact with the connector coat. Sometimes a reset to the multi-switch microprocessor is sufficient to remove a fault: simply disconnect the multi-switch from the main power for 30 seconds and then reconnect again. If you are unable to remove the fault yourself, please contact your distributor.
