- Leave enough space around the product to ensure sufficient ventilation.
- Excessive temperatures and/or an overheating may affect the performance and the life of the product.
- Don’t install the product above or near any heat sources, in dusty places or where it might come into contact with corrosive substances..
- In the event that the unit is fixed to the wall, use the proper screw anchors suitable to the characteristics of the fixing support. The wall and the anchoring system must be able to support at least 4 times the weight of the unit.
Warning: to avoid injury, this appliance must be secured to the wall / floor depending on the installation instructions. For “PERMANENTLY INSTALLED APPLIANCES”, an easily accessible cutting device must be added to the exterior of the appliance; for “APPLIANCES WITH A POWER PLUG”, the socket must be installed close to the appliance and easily accessible. The product must be connected to the grounding electrode of the antenna system in compliance with standard EN 60728-11. The screw provided for this purpose is marked with the symbol
It is recommended to comply with the provisions of the standard EN60728-11 and to connect this screw to the main earth node of the plant (do not connect to intermediate points).

PRODUCT INSTALLATION
- Use plastic brackets for installing the switch as shown.
- Earthing screw.
Connect the power supply to the DC port (bottom left side) IMPORTANT: use only given PSU1215TS or PSU1340TS, an incorrect voltage (ex. 18V) will damage the product. The voltage has to be within 12V and 14V; if it is used an higher voltage (ex. 18V) the multiswitch will be damaged.
USER’S INSTRUCTIONS
when the product is correctly fed, the voltage is sent to all input satellite ports, allowing to feed the connected LNBs or amplifiers
The TV signal can be adjusted using the dip switch on the top right side of the mechanic; when the TV gain is passive it is not necessary to feed the multiswitch and there is also the return channel.

OPERATING LEVEL
LED Power ON: if the multiswitch is correctly powered the LED will be ON. If there is a short circuit in the satellite lines, the LED will be OFF; in this case is recommended to disconnect the power supply, remove the short circuit and restore the power supply, the LED will turn ON again.
Taps LED: every tap has a green LED; the LED lights up when a voltage is detected on the port; if the STB is properly connected to the multiswitch, the LED will detect DiSEqC command and it will be ON; otherwise verify the connection quality and the decoder settings.
