INTRODUCTION

Product description

Scans all channels, amplifies the weak signals while keeping the strong channels
All output channels have an equal and stable output power
Treats even the most difficult situations with adjacent channels
Channels with the same frequency can be amplified in and re-located to the LTE band (switchable)
Fully automatic channel scan and process function upon double power start-up.
Fully automatic recognition of the applied country channel plan
SAW filters for LTE (4G or 5G) protection on all inputs
Outdoor weatherproof mast-head housing
DC Power over coax
All ports ESD protected

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Installing the Smart Amp

Connect your Terrestrial antennas to the Smart Amp*
Connect the Smart Amp output to the Power Supply
Connect your TVs to the Power Supply

Important: Mount the module vertically to a wall in a well-ventilated room and leave a minimum space of 15 cm around the product to guarantee maximum ventilation of the product

The Smart Amp does not allow pass-through DC-power for pre-amplifiers or active antennas

Duplicate channel switch OFF:
The weakest channel is rejected. See the example below:
CH30 > CH30
CH40 < CH40
➔ CH30 is transmitted
➔ CH30 is rejected
➔ CH40 is rejected
➔ CH40 is transmitted

Duplicate channel switch ON:

The weakest channel is converted to LTE band. See the example below:;
CH30 > CH30
CH40 < CH40
➔ CH30 is transmitted
➔ CH30 is converted to LTE band
➔ CH40 is converted to LTE band
➔ CH40 is transmitted

LTE Filtering

LTE1 = LTE800 = 4G (REF. 7473L1 & 7474L1) Everything above 790MHz is filtered out:

LTE2 = LTE700 = 5G (REF. 7473L2 & 7474L2) Everything above 694MHz is filtered out:

How Autoscan works:

Plug-in Power Supply
Status LED will blink green when scanning
Status LED solid green when auto scan ready (This can take up to 20 seconds)
Status LED red when an error during the scan. Unpowered and repower within 6 seconds to restart auto scan
WARNING: do not turn off the power during SCAN

How to force channel scan:

(FORCE CHANNEL SCAN = RESET = REPROGRAM)

Unpowered and Repower within 6 sec (Status LED will blink when scanning)
If power interruption (>6 sec) = no reprogram = settings are kept
