Located behind each television monitor.

(1) KeyTV Multisource Signal Controller

This is where you connect your cable TV and/or

satellite service. The Key TV controller is found on

your vehicle’s exterior, either in the convenience

center or in a small compartment on either the

non-door side or rear wall of the trailer.

KeyTV works seamlessly with cable service and all major

satellite providers without the need to run separate wiring

to television monitors.

TO WATCH OVER-THE-AIR TELEVISION

(1) Connect television to the “CATV/ANT” port on the wall plate with a coaxial cable.

(2) Turn TV on.

(3) For most television sets, go to the menu, select antenna (usually “ANT”) input and

run auto-program to program viewable channels.

TO WATCH CABLE TELEVISION

port. (Located on your vehicle’s exterior.)

(2) Connect television to the “CATV/ANT” port on the wall plate with a coaxial cable.

(3) Turn your TV on. For most television sets, go to the menu, select cable (usually

“CATV”) input and run auto-program to program viewable channels.

Note: If cable service is weak or compromised (-50 dBm or stronger required), KeyTV will automatically

switch your feed to the over-the-air channels. For over-the-air viewing, disconnect cable from the exterior

KeyTV signal controller.

TO WATCH SATELLITE TELEVISION

(1) Connect coaxial wire from the satellite dish’s main port to the KeyTV Multisource

Signal Controller’s “SAT” port. (Located on your vehicle’s exterior.) Most portable

systems require this coaxial wire to be 25 ft. or less for proper satellite operation.

• Please refer to your satellite equipment product manual for satellite receiver and

television set up.

(2) At the television monitor, connect satellite receiver to the “SAT” port on the wall plate

with a coaxial cable. Then, connect receiver to the television with an HDMI cable.

Just plug and play.

Note: With portable systems, you will be

able to watch satellite program on any one

television. Compatibility diagrams are available

from Keystone Customer Service.

KEYSTONE’S EXCLUSIVE COLOR-CODED WIRING STANDARD FOR KeyTV

Each monitor’s wall plate connects directly to the KeyTV Multisource Signal Controller

with a color-coded coaxial cable. Should an issue arise, check to make sure the

connection is tight at the wall plate and at the corresponding connection on your

KeyTV unit. If further service is required, the color-coded cables make it easy to

locate and correct any issues.

Applications with 5 TV locations require the replacement of the factory installed splitter

located between TV 4 & TV 5 with an approved satellite providers splitter.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

My cable is snowy or the reception is poor, what’s up?

At some campgrounds the strength of the cable service can get diluted

the further your site is from the source or with bad weather. If you’re

having an issue make sure your cable signal is at least -50 dBm or

stronger. KeyTV was developed without splitters or jumpers in order to

give you the best possible picture.

What satellite providers are KeyTV compatible with?

KeyTV is fully compatible with DISH® Network and DirecTV® in the U.S.,

Shaw Direct and Bell in Canada.

My dealer has suggested running separate wiring for my

satellite system, do I need that?

You don’t. By running a single line from the controller to each monitor

wall plate, KeyTV eliminates the wiring complexity that sometimes

resulted in poor satellite reception.
