The P-0321 allows you to integrate modulated signals into a digital cable

system without using an RF filter. This allows several modulated channels

to be integrated with a full digital cable feed without requiring any digital

programming to be filtered out.

Features:

Basic Application

Connect the P-0321 as shown and locate it at the main distribution point in the

house. The output of the P-0321 will send both CATV and the modulator’s

output to the TV location over a single coax cable. Switching between the

CATV and modulator signals is simple: just point the remote at an IR receiver

connected to the coax-based IR system and the IR signal will travel back to the

P-0321 and change it to the desired input.

Connecting the Digital Cable Box to the TV

For best results, use a 2-way RF splitter to feed the RF inputs of the CATV box

and the TV set. Then use RCA cables to connect the audio/video outputs from

the CATV box to the audio/video inputs of the TV.

How to Use the System

To watch the CATV box, select “CATV” on the remote control and then select

the A/V input on the TV.

To watch the modulated channels, select “Modulator” on the remote

control, then select the RF input on the TV and tune to the modulated channel

with the TV remote control.

Systems with Multiple Digital CATV Boxes

To create systems with multiple locations, simply split the output of the

modulator and the CATV feed, then connect the outputs of the splitters to each

P-0321. For larger systems, use splitters with more outputs.

Troubleshooting

If your IR system is not working, check to see if the P-0321 is feeding

approximately 12 Volts DC onto the coax between the shield and center

pin. (Any voltage between 8-12VDC is OK). If there is no voltage

between the center pin and shield, check the connectors on each end of

the coax.

If you are using an RF splitter between the modulator and the P-0321 or

between the P-0321 and the IR coax adaptor (IR-4101), check to make

sure you have approximately 8-12 Volts DC on the coax going into the

IR-4101. If there is no voltage at that point, check the following items:

1. Make sure you are using a DC passing splitter. Traditional splitters will

short out DC voltage traveling on the coax and prevent your IR system

from working.

2. Make sure that there are DC blocks (model 3109) on any output from

the RF splitter that will not be connected to an IR-4101. If outputs

from the splitter are connected directly to TV sets without going

through a IR-4101 or DC block, the system voltage will be shorted out

by the input of the TV set.

3. Double check the fittings at the end of your coax cables. If a little bit of

shielding is touching the center pin, the voltage will be shorted out and

the system will not work.

4. Don’t worry. The IR engine has a current limiting circuit. If the engine

is shorted (due to a bad connection or a non-DC passing splitter)

nothing will be harmed.
