DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT
The Meliconi AT52 R1 USB amplified indoors antenna receives and amplifies DVB-T and DVB-T2 digital terrestrial TV signals and DAB+ radio signals on the VHF-III and UHF bands. It also has a low-noise amplifier and special filters to eliminate interference from FM, GSM, 4G and 5G signals.
CONTENTS OF THE PACKAGE:
- Antenna
- Power cable (jack – USB) 1.5m
- Instruction booklet
INSTALLATION
- Place the antenna in a position with good reception, for example near a window or in the direction of the television station, away from metal objects, electrical appliances and reinforced concrete walls which can attenuate the signal and limit its operation
- Connect the Meliconi antenna cable [A] to the antenna input socket on the TV (or digital terrestrial decoder).
- Turn knob [D] counterclockwise and adjust for maximum amplification.
- Connect the end [F] of the power cable [B] to the antenna [C]; insert the other end of the power cable [G] into a free USB socket on the TV (or decoder). In this way the TV (or decoder) will automatically supply power to the antenna only when it is switched on.
- Turn on the device (TV / DECODER) and select the desired channel. Check that the LED [H] on the antenna turns on. When the TV (or decoder) is turned off, the antenna (and LED) should turn off.
Alternative connections:
If your TV/decoder does not have a free USB socket, you can power the antenna
in the following ways.
B1 POWER SUPPLY FROM DECODER
If the antenna is connected to a suitably equipped digital terrestrial
decoder, the decoder can power the antenna via the antenna cable [A] (refer to
the decoder’s user manual to enable the 5 Volt/ Antenna connection). Check
that the LED [H] on the antenna turns on when the decoder is on. In this
configuration, when the decoder is turned off, the antenna (and LED) will
automatically turn off.
B2 EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
Use a standard 5 VDC/1 A USB power supply (not included) that complies with
current safety regulations. Meliconi S.p.A. denies any and all liability
resulting from use of external power supplies.
IMPROVING RECEPTION
If the image quality is unsatisfactory or no signal is received, proceed as follows:
- Check that the antenna is on: LED [H] on.
- Turn the antenna until you get the best reception.
- Adjust the gain with the amplification adjustment knob [D]; the maximum gain setting does not always give the best image quality. Try reducing it a little.
- Look at the antennas on the roofs of neighbouring buildings and turn your antenna in the same direction as them.
If possible, tune the channels of the TV / DECODER by temporarily connecting
it to a different working source of reception (e.g. the building’s antenna).
Note that an internal antenna is in any case an “alternative” solution
for TV reception; due to the variable signal strength inside buildings, the
quality of the results you get will depend on the conditions in the room. The
best results are obtained when the antenna is positioned close to a window, in
the direction of the transmitter, without obstacles or buildings in the way.
