Q: Can I use the Wireless
Cable TV with my satellite receiver system?
A: Yes. Just connect the composite video (yellow RCA jack) output
from your satellite receiver to the composite video input on our
transmitter and it will send the channel that your satellite box is
tuned to wirelessly to the remote TV. You take your satellite box's
remote control to the remote TV to change the channel. Both the TV at
the satellite box and the remote TV will be on the same channel.
Q: Does it work with all brands of cable and satellite receivers?
A: Yes. It will work with any satellite and cable box company and
all models of receiver boxes.
Q: Do I need to have a cable box for it to work? What if I have
digital cable?
A: No, if you have analog cable, no cable box is needed. Just
connect the coax cable from the wall directly to the transmitter. If you
have digital cable you will need to connect the transmitter to the
composite video output (yellow, red and white RCA connectors) of your digital cable box.
Problem: I don't see any image on my TV
Solution: Be sure to make all of the connections as
described in the User Manual. Re-check them. Make sure that
the power light on the Transmitter and Receiver are ON. Make sure
that both units are on the same RF Channel. Make sure that if you
connected a coax cable to the Transmitter that both units are set to
"TV". The TV/AV light at the top of both units should be lit.
If you are using the A/V inputs on the Transmitter, the TV/AV light
should be OFF. Make sure that your TVs input setting is correct to
see the signal from the Receiver - Ch3 if connecting with the coax
cable, AUX, Video, etc if connecting with the A/V cables.
Problem: I can't change channels, or , I
only see one channel on my TV (when using the coax cable input)
Solution: First, make sure the telescopic antennas on top of
the Transmitter and Receiver are raised (about 4 inches)
Second, after checking all of your connections, aim the
remote at the Receiver and press MENU. Make sure that CATV is selected.
Press OK on the remote, then press SCAN. Your cable input will be scanned
for all available channels. When scanning is done you can now change
channels. If you have the Transmitter connected to the A/V output (yellow,
red and white RCA connectors) on your cable box, you will use your cable box's
remote control to change channels. Please see the information below about
setting up the Remote IR Extender.
Problem: I see a screen that says "AngelTrax No
Signal AV" or "AngelTrax No Signal TV" on my TV
Solution: You may have the TV/AV selection wrong.
When the screen says "Angeltrax no signal AV" the transmitter is sending the
signal connected to its yellow, red and white RCA inputs. If there is no signal
going into the transmitter via the RCA inputs you will see this message.
When the screen says "Angeltrax no signal TV" the transmitter is sending the
signal connected to its coax cable input. If there is no signal going into the
transmitter via the coax cable input you will see this message.
Be sure to have both transmitter and receiver set to either TV or AV depending
on the connection you have going into the transmitter. For example: If you have
a coax cable connected to the transmitter, press the TV/AV button at the top of
the transmitter and receiver so that the TV/AV light is ON. Having this setting
wrong for the transmitter input you are using causes the AngelTrax No Signal TV
or AV message.
Problem: I see interference or hear
static on my TV
Solution: Other devices in your area may operate on the same 2.4
GHz frequencies as the Wireless Cable TV. These devices can include
cordless phones, wireless computer networking equipment, baby monitors, wireless
security systems and microwave ovens. These devices can cause interference
to the video and audio signal. The Wireless Cable TV is equipped with 4
selectable channels so you can find the clearest channel in your area. If
you experience interference, try each of the 4 channels until you find one that
has no interference. To select RF channels, use the buttons on the front
of the Transmitter and Receiver, or use the RF button on the remote control to
select RF1, RF2, RF3 or RF4. The RF lights on the Transmitter and Receiver
must be set to the same channel.
Problem: I have digital cable
or digital FIOS service
Solution: The Wireless Cable TV has an analog tuner, which means
you won't be able to connect the coax cable from the cable company or the
digital cable box directly to the Wireless Cable TV. Instead, you will
connect the RCA A/V cables (yellow, red and white) from the digital cable box to
the A/V inputs on the transmitter. This will send the channel the
digital cable box is tuned to wirelessly to our receiver connected to your
remote TV. With the built-in IR Extender feature, you can use your digital
cable box's remote control to change channels on the digital cable box while
watching TV in another room. You'll be able to watch all of your channels
on the remote TV. When using this method, both TVs will display the same
channel.
Problem: I have a satellite or dish
antenna
Solution: The Wireless Cable TV has an analog tuner, which means
you won't be able to connect the coax cable from the satellite dish or satellite
receiver directly to the Wireless Cable TV. Instead, you will connect the
RCA A/V cables (yellow, red and white) from the satellite receiver to the A/V
inputs on the transmitter. This will send the channel the satellite
receiver is tuned to wirelessly to our receiver connected to your remote TV.
With the built-in IR extender feature, you can use your satellite receiver's
remote control to change channels on the satellite receiver while watching TV in

TV.
Problem: I have the
transmitter connected to the RCA Video-Out jacks (yellow, red and white) on my
cable/digital cable box and I don't see any image on my TV
Solution: When using the RCA AV inputs on the Transmitter,
make sure the TV/AV indicator light on the front panel of both the Transmitter
and Receiver is OFF.
Question:
How do I use the Remote IR Extender?
Answer:
The IR Extender allows you to change channels on your cable or
satellite box from the remote TV.
1. Raise antennas on Transmitter and Receiver.
2. Connect IR Extender cable to Transmitter.
3. Place end of IR Extender cable in front of the cable box or satellite
