IMPORTANT READ BEFORE INSTALLATION Antenna grounding If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, make sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide protection against voltage surges and built up of static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code,ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna discharge- unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See DIAGRAM TO LEFT. Important Safety Notes If you do not feel comfortable or competent to install this antenna we recommend that you seek the assistance of a qualified professional antenna installer. Read the instructions for this device thoroughly before attempting installation. The installation or dismantling of any antenna near power lines is dangerous. Each year hundreds of people are killed or injured while attempting to install or service antennas. For your safety and proper antenna installation, read and follow all safety precautions. Outdoor antennas and lead-in conductors from antenna to a building should not cross over open conductors of electric light or power circuits. They should be kept away from all circuits to avoid the possibility of accidental contact. Each conductor of a lead-in from an outdoor antenna should be connected with an antenna discharge unit. Antenna discharge units (or Lightning Arrestors) should be located outside the building between the point of entrance or the lead-in and the TV, and as near as practical to the entrance of conductors to the building. Choose an installation site for safety as well as performance. All electric power lines, cable lines and telephone lines look alike.To be safe, assume ANY overhead line can kill you. Do not place an antenna where it could potentially fall on to, or blow into a power line. If in doubt call your electric provider. Let them review your site. 3 EN Safety Instructions EN Safety Instructions 4 Outdoor antennas should be grounded with an approved lighting arresting device. Local codes may apply. Use 8 AWG or larger ground wire. Height or other restrictions on antennas may apply to your installation depending on your proximity to an airport, or local ordinances. Take the time to plan your installation procedure. Do all assembly work on the antenna on the ground. Raise the completed antenna after assembly. Do NOT work on a wet, snowy or windy day or if a thunderstorm is approaching. Do NOT use a metal ladder. If the antenna assembly starts to fall, get away from it and let it fall. Remember that the antenna mast and cable are all excellent conductors of electrical current. Do NOT install the antenna by yourself. Be sure that there are two other people available for help. If any part of the antenna should come in contact with a power line. DON'T TOUCH IT OR TRY TO REMOVE IT YOURSELF. Call your local power company immediately.They will remove it. Should an electrical accident occur ...DON'T TOUCH THE PERSON IN CONTACT WITH THE POWER LINE, or you too can become electrocuted. Instead, use a DRY board, stick, or rope to push or pull the victim away from the power lines and antenna. Once clear, check the victim. If he has stopped breathing, immediately administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and stay with him. Have someone else call for medical help. Install wire antennas high enough that they will not be "walked into" by people. Do not install antenna wire(s) over or under utility lines. Important installation information The SDV2950 uses a power injector that sends a low power DC voltage to the antenna to drive the signal amplifier built into the antenna though the RG-6 or RG-59 signal cable. It is essential for proper operation of this antenna system that the power injector be connected between the antenna and any devices such as splitters, additional amplifers, matching transformers, networks, etc. SEE DIAGRAM TO LEFT. Disregarding this important notice may result in damaging the power injector or improper operation / poor performance. Included with Antenna EN Included with Antenna EN Parts included: 1.
