OMNINOVA BOSS
OMNINOVA BOSS
General specifications
Omni-directional antenna that can receive
television with stable images, regardless of
movement of the antenna.
Maximum optimization of the gain of the
amplifier:
- By the selective amplification of the frequency
bands (FM, BI, BIII, UHF).
- Incorporating filters that reject signals from
other frequency bands, and especially LTE band.
Allows reception of AM radio signals.
Is protected against lightning.
UHF amplifier with BOSS-Tech technology, which
regulates every time the output level of the
antenna.
Location of the antenna
For mounting in vehicles, choose a location away
from electrical cables, motors, lighting systems and
electronic instruments (Fig. 2).
Generally, the most suitable location is near the
front of the vehicle, at the top.
For mounting on boats, the premise is to place the
antenna as high as possible, and as far away as they
can from other antennas and metallic parts of the
boat/ship.
Orientation
The antenna is omnidirectional, so it need not
be oriented for proper operation. However, it's
recommended to install it as in Fig. 3.
Location of the control module of
the antenna
Choose an accessible location inside the cockpit
where to place this module so that it is protected
from heat, moisture, ... and so on., ensuring that
the cable length from the antenna to the control
module is not excessive. Also, should not be made
to the cable kinks or bites (Fig. 4).
Installation diagram
Follow the diagram in Figure 5 for installation.
Make sure the power is correct, either through
the network adapter or via the cigarette lighter
adapter for battery power: 11 ... 16 V
Connecting the antenna
Pass one end of the cable through the tube formed
by the bases, as shown in the image (Fig. 6a).
At the end of the cable, which protrudes from the
top of the tube, proceed to install the connector
type "F", screwing it in the cable (Fig. 6b).
Insert the plug, once screwed, in the bottom of the
antenna base and proceed to screw it (Fig. 7a).
Securing the antenna
Fit the entire set of the antenna on the base tube.
Note that the cable and connector are protected
inside the tube (Fig. 7b).
Place the antenna in the direction you want and
proceed to permanently block it by tightening the
two screws at the base with a spanner #8 or wrench
(Fig. 7c).
Connecting the antenna control
module
Before finishing the assembly of the connector on
the coaxial cable, check visually that no strand of
the braid is in contact with the inner conductor of
the cable.
The layout of the connectors on the control module
is as shown in Figure 8.
Operating modes
.
With the green LED ON, the antenna and the
amplifier are functioning properly (Fig. 10 a).
In this operating mode is achieved the best
response to weak signals, this being the normal
operation of the antenna. The antenna adjusts the
UHF output level thanks to the technology BOSS-
Tech.
With the red LED ON, the antenna operates in
passive mode, this is, the amplifier is switched OFF
(Fig. 10 b).
RECOMMENDATION: The normal operating mode
of the antenna should be with the green LED ON,
thjis is, manually activating the device BOSS-Tech
in the antenna control module.
