RECEIVER OPERATION
A. HOW TO SETUP THE RECEIVER
1. LOCATON The Receiver is designed to be placed on a flat surface for stability. The Receiver is not weatherproof and should be placed indoors or in an environmental enclosure if used outdoors or in a harsh environment. 2. POWER The MiniLink is powered by a 10-14.5 VDC power supply connected to the Power In connector on the rear of the case. The Receiver incorporates internal reverse voltage protection. The Receiver itself uses 220 mA of power and the LNB, which gets its power from the Receiver, uses 220 mA. 3. CHANNEL SELECT Channel selection is accomplished by programming of the 4-position dipswitch located at the rear panel. Match the dipswitches to the setting on the label for the desired channel (Any numbers visible on the switch itself are not used. The white squares indicate the switch location).

MINILINK® 5.8 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
The MiniLink 5.8 GHz transmitter is available in two transmit configurations utilizing directional and omni directional antennas. A directional transmit path is ideal for frequency isolation and fixed pointto-point applications. An omni directional transmit path is ideal for situations where the orientation of the transmitter is not fixed and the transmit location changes frequently.

POWER The MiniLink is powered by a 6-14.5 VDC power supply connected to the Power In connector on the rear of the case of the directional transmitter or the 4 pin plug of the omni-directional transmitter. The transmitter incorporates internal reverse voltage protection. 3. CHANNEL SELECT Channel selection is accomplished by programming of the 4-position dipswitch located at the rear panel of the directional transmitter and on the front of the omni-directional transmitter. Switch and frequency settings are listed on the label below the switch access. 4. AUDIO SELECT Audio mode selection is enabled by programming the 2-position dipswitch located at the rear panel of the directional transmitter and on the front of the omni-directional transmitter. Switch settings are listed on the label adjacent to the switch access. The Audio In connector can be used for either line or microphone input levels. If an electret microphone is used, the second switch position can be selected to supply +5 V to the electret element. The +5V microphone supply should be disabled for dynamic microphone or line input uses. 5. ORDER OF SETUP AND OPERATION · Select Frequency and Audio mode. (Factory set to channel 10) · Connect Power, Video and Audio inputs to transmitter. · Position transmitter for desired polarity using rear label arrow as a reference, transmitter and receiver polarity must match one another.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
PROBLEM
No picture or sound, no indicator lights

SOLUTION
1. NO POWER ­ make certain that all equipment is plugged into the proper power source. 2. Check power supply to make sure it is outputting the required voltage. 1. LNB is not pointed at the transmitter. Verify the transmitter is aimed at the LNB properly. You should have clear, wide-open line of site between the transmitter and LNB 2. Poor cable connections. Check all cable connections and connectors. 3. Defective LNB. Replace defective part. 1. Receiver antenna is not aligned with the transmitter. Readjust antenna to match polarity. 2. Video channel is improperly set. 3. Excessive signal loss between LNB and receiver. Install line amplifier. 4. LNB is defective. Check all coaxial connections. 5. Poor connections. Check all coaxial connections. 6. Water in coaxial cable connections. Check all connections, dry out if necessary and make sure all connectors used outdoors are suitable for environmental conditions. 1. LNB off frequency. Have a qualified service technician check LNB
