TO RECEIVE PROGRAMMES
|
Television distribution systems normally provide each apartment with analogue
terrestrial television BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, digital terrestrial
multiplexes 1-6 and usually FM BBC Radio |
|
|
In order to receive the programmes, it is necessary to connect the television
aerial input socket to the aerial outlet plate TV connection with a special
lead called a fly lead. Once the aerial has been connected to the
television, then the television needs to be tuned to the programmes by following
the television instruction book. |
|
TUNING IN
|
The signals from the system may be on different channels to normal
and so it is best to tune the television in when first connecting to a system.
This may be 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.
Sometimes, the channels on the system are different to those from the
transmitter. Sometimes the transmitter channels are picked up weakly on the
system. Sometimes the auto tune on a television will tune to the weak picked
up signals and not the proper ones. If you think this may have occurred,
then it is best to manually tune. The list of channels above covers
some of the current Blakeglow systems . |
|
FLY LEAD
|
The fly lead should be made from a double screened coaxial cable,
should be kept as short as possible and should be one continuous length.
Coaxial cables are fragile and can be easily crushed or damaged by
bending.
When damaged, much of the signal can be lost in the cable, affecting the
quality, with analogue reception causing snowy pictures and with digital
causing blocking. The fly lead should have an industry standard, IEC, coaxial
connection at each end. |

AERIAL OUTLET PLATE
|
The aerial outlet plate on an MATV system usually has two sockets, one
for radio and one for television. For television, the socket marked
TV should be used. |

|
| SATELLITE OUTLET PLATE |
The satellite outlet plate on an SMATV system usually has three sockets,
one for radio, one for satellite and one for television. For television,
the socket marked TV should be used and for satellite plug the f connector
lead into the socket marked SAT and connect the other end to the satellite
receiver. Some times a four output socket is installed which would
allow for Sky plus. |
