Important safety instructions
General installation conditions
• Before handling or connecting the equipment, please read this manual.
• In order to reduce the risk of fi re or electric shock, do not expose the equipment
to rain or moisture.
• Do not take the cover off the equipment without disconnecting it from the
mains.
• Do not obstruct the equipment's ventilation system.
• Please allow air circulation around the equipment.
• The equipment must not come into contact with water or even be splashed
by liquids. Do not place containers with water on or near the equipment if it is
not adequately protected.
• Do not place the equipment near sources of heat or in excessively moisture
conditions.
• Do not place the equipment where it may be aff ected by strong vibrations or
knocks.
• This symbol indicates that the equipment complies with the
requirements of CE mark.
NOTE: The complete user manual is available in the CD

Consumption 24V:
- The Power Supply Unit can power up to 16 Twin Modulator modules.
- Whenever the demand of power exceeds 4A (max. current for each output), it is necessary to distribute it between the two powering outputs of the PSU.
- The technical characteristics described are defi ned for a maximum ambient temperature of 45°C (113ºF). Forced ventilation is used for higher temperatures.
Inputs/Outputs/Connections description
The unit (Fig. 1) is provided with:
1. RF input
2. RF output + 2 CH TV (module A and module B)
3. Powering BUS connectors
4. Status LED
5. Control BUS connectors
6. Audio / video input signal connector (module A and module B)
7. Programmer / PC connector
Introduction
The TWIN unit features two A/V inputs (modules A and B) which generate
two independent output channels.
The A/V inputs for each module (A and B) are modulated according to the TV
standard in an IF of 38.9 MHz.
The modulated IF signal is converted to any channel or frequency between 46
and 862 MHz and then, once fi ltered, it is amplifi ed to achieve the specifi ed
output level.
It is also possible to control the unit via a PC as is explained in User manual.
