Installation
Before installation please ensure all devices to be connected to the amplifier
are switched off and disconnected from the mains. The unit is designed to be
connected via coaxial connectors, although f-type adaptors are also supplied
for additional compatibility. On the back of the casing there are also two
mounting holes which allow the unit to be fixed to the wall.
AV:Link distribution amplifiers are designed to amplify weak, poor quality
signals and distribute them to different destinations. For installations that
are close to a TV transmitter or any other form of radio transmitter or high-
power source, you may experience blocking or a frozen picture. In this
instance an attenuator is required for turning down the signal to suitable
levels for TV viewing.
The above diagram shows AMD08 receiving TV signals from the Satellite receiver and FM/DAB aerial and distribute the signals to 4 individual hi-fi and 4 TV units. The AMD series amplifier is designed with DC pass function. All 4 TV’s can also be set up with a “Magic eye” (remote extension unit) to allow remote control of the satellite receiver when the TV is not the same room. This can only be done when you connect the RF2 output to the UHF input of the amplifier. Note: only one satellite channel can be viewed at any time from the Satellite receiver.
It is also suitable for upgrading or replacing existing UHF/VHF signal distribution units, simply reconnect the existing connector from the previous unit to the AMD amplifier. Ensure the UHF aerial is connected to the UHF input of the amplifier and FM/DAB aerials are connected to the VHF input of the amplifier. For loft distribution installation please ensure the unit is kept away from moisture and water.
