• Consider outdoor mounting for best results. The antenna is designed to be weather-resistant.

3. Collegamento dell'antenna

1. Connect the coaxial cable from the antenna to the "ANT IN" or "CABLE IN" port on the Smartpass Amppiù vivace.
2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable from the Smartpass Amplifier to the "ANT IN" or "CABLE IN" port on the back of your HDTV or digital converter box.
3. Plug the power adapter into the Smartpass Amplifier and then into a standard electrical outlet.
4. Smartpass Amplifier Switch: If your house is very close to the broadcast tower (within 35 miles), switch the amplifier to "short range" (OFF position). For longer distances, switch it to "long range" (ON position). Experiment with both settings to find the best reception.
