| Decoders should be connected in the following priority order for
signal from the primary socket:-
1. Terrestrial digital decoder (free view etc.)
2. Sky or Eutelsat satellite decoder
3. VCR
In order to provide the signal to the television associated with the
decoders and to the feed-back socket, some mini systems have a third socket
at the main point specifically to feed the television. Others require a small
signal splitting device to be used, one of which is normally provided with
the new system in each apartment.
Once connected, the output channels may need setting on each item
of equipment. If, after attempting to tune the other television
on the system, it is found that some channels are either missing or suffering
from interference, then the channel changing instructions should be followed
for each item of equipment. Channels should be chosen to avoid interference
and, in general, channel spacing of 1, 5 or 9 should not be
used.
When first connecting a television to the system, it is necessary
to tune the television in the same way that one would normally tune a television
in for the first time. Most modern televisions have automatic search facilities
which may be used.

up, secondary points and tuning. |
