Safety Precautions

Warning!

Use extreme caution when installing or removing an outdoor

antenna that is located close to overhead wires such as power lines,

telephone lines or cable TV lines. If any part of the antenna makes

contact with overhead power lines, touching the antenna or the

antenna cable can cause electrocution and death. If the antenna is

in contact with any type of overhead wires, call your power company

and ask them to send a qualified technician to remove the antenna.

Do not attempt to remove it yourself!

Important Safety Precautions...

Many do-it-yourself and professional antenna installers are injured

or killed each year by electric shock. While anyone can see the

obvious danger of falling, the most resourceful sometimes fail to

recognize overhead wires as being potentially lethal. To touch any

part of the antenna to these overhead wires is the same as touching

the wires with your bare hand. A very serious shock is almost sure

to result when contacting an electrical wire, and in the case of

primary wires on the tip of poles, the shock is like being struck by a

bolt of lightning. Many power wires are within 20 to 25 feet of the

ground and can easily be touched by an assembled antenna.

Please read and follow these important safety precautions:

• Get help from a qualified professional when removing the old

antenna if there is any doubt of clearing overhead wires.

• Never install the antenna outdoors at night or in inclement

weather conditions.

• Make sure the antenna downlead cable is connected to suitable

lightning arrestors.

• Make sure the antenna installation is secure.

Lightning protection

Always plug your TV and other electronic devices into a quality surge

protector for maximum protection against lightning and power surges.

• Be sure to select an antenna site well away from

all overhead wires.

• Do not try to guess which overhead wires carry high voltage.

Check with the power company.

• If you notice anything making contact with the overhead wires, call

the power company to have it removed safely.

• Do not run the downlead cable over power lines.

All outdoor antenna installations should be properly grounded. To

effectively protect the installations, the coaxial cable(s) should be

grounded before they enter the house. The grounding of the coaxial

cable is made using a “ground block” and copper wire (not

supplied). For information, and the materials needed to ground

your antenna installation, visit your local electronics store.

About your new TV42

outdoor TV antenna

The TV42 features an internal amplifier that minimizes signal

loss. The satellite receiver powers the amplifier, so no additional

power supply is required. Because TERK’s antenna elements are

manufactured to be weather-resistant, they’ll perform at their

best for many years to come.

For best reception results...

For the best reception results, the satellite dish and antenna

combination should be high off the ground with minimal signal

obstructions. On the side of your house (close to the roof), or on

the roof itself, generally offers the best environment for reception.

Remember, you can always rotate the antenna on the dish to

adjust your reception.

Before you begin

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the various

elements in the TV42 package. Please make sure that your

package includes all of the necessary pieces (see Fig 1). If you

believe your box is missing any pieces, please call TERK Technical

Support at 1(800) 942-TERK (8325).

How to install your new TV42 antenna

The TV42 installation consists of three basic steps:

1. Install and connect the TV42 antenna

2. Install the indoor diplexers

3. Set up your television set(s) to use the TV42

Please be sure to complete all of these steps before attempting to

watch local channels with your TV42.

Installing the TV42 on

a satellite dish

1. Make sure all satellite receivers are turned off and unplugged

from the electrical outlet.

2. Unsnap the antenna from the back notch of the mounting

clamp. See Fig 2.

3. Hold the antenna to the back of the dish so that the circular

housing is centered with the TERK logo facing out. See Fig 3.

4. Maneuver the clamps over or around the edge of the dish one

at a time. See Fig 4.

5. Snap the antenna back into the back notch of the mounting

clamp.

6. Tighten the clamps by turning the thumb-wheel screw

clockwise.

Note: We recommend the use of the enclosed security clips for

any dish 20” or larger. Snap the security clips onto the TV42 and

slide down towards the mounting clips. See Fig 5.

Connecting the TV42

Depending on the type of satellite dish you have, go to one of the

following five scenarios to determine how to connect the TV42

antenna to your satellite dish.

A-Single LNB (Phase1) Satellite Dish

1. Remove the LNB from the arm of the satellite dish to expose

the satellite cables. See Fig 6.

2. Disconnect the satellite cable(s) from the satellite dish’s LNB

and pull them out through the bottom of the satellite dish arm.

See Fig 6.

3. Connect the satellite cables to the terminals marked OUT 1 and

OUT 2 on the TV42 antenna. See Fig 7.

4. Slide 2 black 32”antenna cables up through the satellite arm

and connect to the LNB. See Fig 8.

5. Reconnect the LNB to the dish arm. See Fig 8.

6. Connect the remaining end of the 2 black 32” antenna cables to

the IN 1 and IN 2 terminals on the TV42 antenna. See Fig 9.

7. Continue to “Installing the Indoor Diplexers.”

Connecting the TV42 (continued)

B - Triple LNB (Phase3) Satellite Dish

Note: You can only connect up to 2 receivers to your satellite dish

with the TV42. If you would like to use or eventually use up to 4

receivers, you will need to purchase the Terk TV44 antenna instead.

1. Remove the LNB from the arm of the satellite dish to expose

the satellite cables. See Fig 10.

2. Disconnect 2 satellite cable(s) from the satellite dish’s LNB and

pull them out through the bottom of the satellite dish arm.

See Fig 10.

3. Connect the satellite cables to the terminals marked

OUT 1 and OUT 2 on the TV42 antenna. See Fig 11.

4. Slide 2 black 32” antenna cables up through the satellite arm

and connect to the LNB. See Fig 12.

5. Reconnect the LNB to the dish arm. See Fig 12.

6. Connect the remaining end of the 2 black 32” antenna cables to

the IN 1 and IN 2 terminals on the TV42 antenna.

See Fig 13.

7. Continue to “Installing the Indoor Diplexers.”

Connecting the TV42 (continued)

C - Phase 2 Satellite Dish

1. Disconnect the satellite cables from the “OUTPUT” or “TO

RECEIVER” terminals on your multiswitch.

2. Connect the satellite cables to the OUT 1 and OUT 2 terminals

on the TV42 antenna. See Fig 14.

3. Using the 2 black 32” antenna cables, connect the IN 1 and IN 2

terminals of the TV42 to the “OUTPUT” or “TO RECEIVER”

terminals on your multiswitch. See Fig 15.

4. Continue to “Installing the Indoor Diplexers.”
