Oehlbach Scope Max Manual Del Usuario página 6

Thank you
for choosing an Oehlbach product. The Oehlbach Scope Max has been developed
to enable a sharp and clear reception of digital signals. The development department at Oehlbach has
created an antenna that combines state-of-the-art technology with exceptional design. The Scope Max
can be installed within minutes and is easy to use. The antenna features a specially developed recei-
ver system which detects signals through 360 degrees (horizontal and vertical signals). This means no
further adjustment is required after the one-off installation process.
Before starting to use the antenna you should read this user manual carefully and remove all parts
from the packaging.
The Scope Max box contains the following items:
· Scope Max antenna
· Coaxial antenna cable
· Mains adapter
· User manual
Optimum location for the antenna
Before connecting the antenna you should determine the best location for optimum reception. Instal-
lation close to a window usually offers the best results. DVB-T receivers often have a signal strength
indicator (level meter), which can be used to locate the best position for the antenna.
The antenna is designed in such a way that horizontal and vertical signals can be received without
altering the position. Nevertheless, the best position can vary depending on the place of installation.
It must also be noted that digital terrestrial signals can be reflected by various objects, and that this
too can have an impact on the reception quality and position. Please try different positions before
installing the antenna in its final position.
Please note: Do not position the antenna next to large metal objects or devices that can cause
interference.
Connecting the Scope Max
You can use the Scope Max with or without an amplifier. An amplifier should be connected in the
majority of cases, as this ensures optimum performance is achieved. Nevertheless, it may be useful
under certain circumstances to use the antenna without the amplifier. One such circumstance is if
you are located in close proximity to the radio mast, as the additional gain produced will result in a
distorted signal. The antenna amplifier can be adjusted via a knob, enabling fine adjustment of signal
amplification.
Note: If you locate some stations that can only be received without amplification, try unplugging the
mains adapter of the amplifier, without actually disconnecting the amplifier. If your TV is equipped
with an integrated DVB-T tuner, you can connect the Scope Max directly to the TV. Otherwise, you can
connect the Scope Max to a set-top box (DVB-T receiver).
